1 ISSUE 4 SHABAN 1435 ALHAYAT MEDIA CENTER REPORT AN SMASHING THE BORDERS OF THE TAWAGHIT THE BATTLE OF ASADULLAH AL-BILAWI

2 REPORTS A HISTORIC MOMENT IN THE FIGHT TO UNITE THE MUSLIM LANDS SMASHING THE BORDERS OF THE TAWAGHIT It was 98 years ago that the Allies of WWI forged a secret agreement to carve up the territories of the Muslim SHABAN lands This arrangement, referred to since as the Sykes-Picot agreement, mapped out parts of the Middle East and designated them as being under the influence or control of either France or the United Kingdom in anticipation of the subsequent conquest of the region. The negotiations took place over the course of a few months and the agreement was finalized in May of The French were represented by Francois George-Picot, [An-Nahl: 36]and the British by Mark Sykes, hence the name Sykes-Picot. The agreement would be formed with Russian approval. The areas of Iraq, Sham, and some neighboring regions were divided into four sections. The two parties would each have both a territory where they exercised direct control, and an adjacent territory over which they maintained influence. A fifth region in the area of Palestine was carved out as an international zone. 1 While these partitions would not go on to form the modern day borders of the nations they encompassed including Iraq and Syria (this would be determined by a later treaty between the Allied Powers), they would form a symbolic precedent for subsequent partitioning of Muslim lands by crusader powers. Years after the agreement, invisible borders would go on to separate between a Muslim and his brother, and pave the way for ruthless, nationalistic tawaghit to entrench the ummah s division rather than working to unite the Muslims under one imam carrying the banner of truth. Each taghut in the lands of the Muslims was satisfied having his own piece of land to rule over and, in some cases, a grandiose titled he assigned himself, such as Ghaddafi s King of the Kings of Africa. This was in spite of that same ruler s humiliated position as a kafir puppet.

3 REPORTS The consequences of the crusader partitions would play directly into the hands of the enemies of Islam, with the average Muslim s unconditional wala for his fellow Muslims and bara for the kuffar being tempered by the notion of patriotism towards a piece of land demarcated by imaginary lines on a map, and the idea of an Islamic khilafah appearing more and more as an exotic fantasy and less and less as an attainable goal. THE MUSLIMS TRAVEL FREELY BETWEEN SHAM AND IRAQ effort on their own part. But the status quo wasn t meant to last, for as the Prophet (PBUH) said: There will be prophethood for as long as Allah wills it to be, then He will remove it when He wills. Then there will be khilafah on the prophetic methodology and it will be for as long as Allah wills, then He will remove it when He wills. Then there will be biting kingship (ie. rulers who would do whatever it takes to hold onto their power) for as long as Allah wills, then He will remove it when He wills. Then there will be oppressive kingship for as long as Allah wills, then He will remove it when He wills. Then there will be khilafah on the prophetic methodology. It reached to the extent that the best of the ummah were seen to be those who practiced the spiritual dimensions of Islam such as prayer and fasting, while living the status quo in the hopes that the Mahdi would someday suddenly emerge and restore the khilafah overnight without any Then there will be khilafah on the prophetic methodology. [Reported by Ahmad] 2

4 REPORTS ONE OF MALIKI S POLICE STATIONS IN THE BORDER REGION NOW WITH THE MUJAHIDIN It was only a matter of time before the oppressive tawaghit of the Muslim world would begin to fall one-by-one to the swords of the mujahidin, who would raise the banner of tawhid, restore the hukm of Allah, direct the masses back to the prophetic manhaj of jihad and away from the corruption of democracy and nationalism, and unite them under one imam. One milestone after another would be reached in spite of 3 the multitude of opposition that stood in the way of the truth. Last week, the mujahidin of the Islamic State of Iraq and Sham reached yet another significant milestone on the path to restoring the prophetic khilafah. As the operation to capture Ninawa and advance towards Baghdad and the Rafidi strongholds to the south was underway, the lions succeeded in taking control of the border region between Wilayat Al-Barakah in Sham, and Wilayat Ninawa in Iraq, and in demolishing the barriers set up to enforce the crusader partitions of the past century. The mujahidin had taken a major step in casting off the shackles of the kafir nations and proving that no kafir was strong enough to separate the Muslims from one another, neither with their artificial borders, nor with their corrupt ideologies, for the end result would always be in favor of the muttaqin.
