Are the Combined Armed Forces of Pakistan, Turkey, and Iran Not Enough to Force the Retreat of Trump?

News:

The media wing of the armed forces of Pakistan reported on 30 January 2026, “General Selcuk Bayraktaroglu, Chief of the Turkish General Staff, called on Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir, NI (M), HJ, COAS & CDF, at General Headquarters (GHQ) today... During the meeting, besides dilating upon matters of mutual interest, prevailing regional and global security landscape, and prospects for strengthening bilateral defence and military cooperation were also discussed.” (ISPR)

Comment:

The military commanders of two of the most powerful armies in the Muslim World, indeed the entire world, met at a time that Trump has sent an armada towards Iran, threatening military action. Yet, they did not discuss measures to force a retreat of the armed forces of the disbelievers, even though the combined armed forces of Iran, Turkey, and Pakistan are much larger than the US forces, and have much shorter and more secure Lines of Communication (LOC) to the current active military theater. Turkey shares a border of 534 kilometers with Iran, whilst Pakistan shares a border of 909 kilometers with Iran. As for the United States, the distance is between Washington and Tehran is over 10,000 kilometers, whilst its Lines of Communication (LOC) all pass through the lands, seas and skies of the Muslims.  In fact, during previous American attacks against the lands of Muslims, whether against Afghanistan or Iraq, the followers of America in Turkey, Iran, and Pakistan provided essential air bases, air corridors, and intelligence to American forces, without which America could not attack.

The followers of America in Turkey and Pakistan do not even learn from the brutal policy of America towards its agents, which is of discarding them in the dustbin of history when they are no longer able to serve its interests. Iran has served American interests for decades, whether regarding Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, or Palestine. The followers of America in Iran even restricted themselves to theatrics, as the US and the Jewish entity dismantled the Axis of Resistance. Yet, after all this long service, the followers of America in Iran now wake up with American barrels at their door.

Certainly, America does not deal with its agents and followers as partners, but as employees whom it uses as long as they are useful, and then discards them when they are used up. Yet, the followers of America continue to depend on foreign American support for their cling to power, instead of earning a strong domestic support by supporting the Deen and the Ummah of Islam. Allah (swt) warned,

[مَثَلُ الَّذِينَ اتَّخَذُوا مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ أَوْلِيَاءَ كَمَثَلِ الْعَنكَبُوتِ اتَّخَذَتْ بَيْتًا وَإِنَّ أَوْهَنَ الْبُيُوتِ لَبَيْتُ الْعَنكَبُوتِ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ]

“The example of those who take allies other than Allah is like that of the spider who takes a home. And indeed, the weakest of homes is the home of the spider, if they only knew” [TMQ Surah Al-Ankabut: 41].

O Ummah of Islam!

We are not weak before our enemies. Allah (swt) has granted the Islamic Ummah huge armies, immense resources and control of the major waterways, land routes, and air corridors in the world. We are not weak, but have been made weak by rulers who ally with our enemies, restrain our armed forces from fighting, and assist the disbelievers in attacking Muslims. Instead of striving to restore the dignity of the Deen by unifying the believers, the rulers of Muslims side with the enemies and earn the Wrath of Allah (swt). Allah (swt) said,

[الَّذِينَ يَتَّخِذُونَ الْكَافِرِينَ أَوْلِيَاءَ مِن دُونِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَيَبْتَغُونَ عِندَهُمُ الْعِزَّةَ فَإِنَّ الْعِزَّةَ لِلَّهِ جَمِيعًا]

“Those who take disbelievers for allies instead of believers, do they seek power with them? Verily, then to Allah belongs all power” [TMQ Surah An-Nisa'a: 139].

O Armed Forces of Muslims!

The unity of the Muslims is now a demand and Dua of the entire Islamic Ummah, from Indonesia to Morocco. The anger of the Ummah against its enemies and their injustice is at an unprecedented level. It is now upon you to grant your nussrah (military support) for the re-establishment of the shield of the Ummah, the Khilafah Rashidah (Rightly-Guided Caliphate) on the Method of the Prophethood. As for the compensation for your striving and sacrifice, remember the exchange of words between the Messenger of Allah (saw) and the warriors of the Ansar (ra), on the occasion of the Second Pledge of Aqabah, the Bayah of Men, the Bayah of Nussrah and War. The Ansar (ra) said, فَإِنّا نَأْخُذُهُ عَلَى مُصِيبَةِ الْأَمْوَالِ وَقَتْلِ الْأَشْرَافِ. فَمَا لَنَا بِذَلِكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللّهِ إنْ نَحْنُ وَفّيْنَا “We take the Prophet (saw) despite all trials regarding our wealth and killing of our nobles. So what is for us, O Messenger of Allah (saw) of we fulfill our pledge?” The Messenger of Allah (saw) said, الْجَنّةُ “Jannah.” The warriors of the Ansar (ra) responded, اُبْسُطْ يَدَك “Spread open your hand.” It is then narrated, فَبَسَطَ يَدَهُ فَبَايَعُوهُ “The Prophet (saw) spread out his hand and they gave him the Bay’ah.” Thus, Hizb ut Tahrir seeks your Nussrah, so respond.
