We were not surprised, nor was the Islamic Ummah surprised, by the welcoming of the treacherous rulers of the Muslims of the plan of the American president Donald Trump to lose Gaza, as they have accustomed us to cowardice, rather to conspiring with the colonialist kufar (disbelievers) against our issues. Trump had met with a number of them in New York on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly meetings, on Tuesday 23/9/2025, and they praised him and declared their reliance on him to end the war on Gaza. As soon as Trump announced his colonialist plan, they hastened to welcome it. How could they not, when none of them dare to do otherwise, for they have lost the zeal and gallantry of men.

O Muslims: You have come to know, without a shadow of a doubt, that Trump is the main supporter of the Jewish entity in its heinous crimes in Gaza and the West Bank. He provides it with everything it needs in terms of weapons, money, and information, and provides it with media and political cover in international forums. You have heard his many statements in covering its crimes, his statement regarding its area, his statements regarding Gaza and his determination to establish economic projects in it, and his proceeding with the Abraham Accords which he imposed on your rulers. You heard his words when announcing his colonialist plan with the criminal Netanyahu: “Israel would have my full backing to finish the job of destroying the threat of Hamas,” as if he had not done so before and still does! You have known all this, so can such a criminal be trusted with your issues? And can it be expected from him to consider your interests?

O Muslims, and O armies in the Muslim lands:

You are in need of a ruler who emulates the Messenger of Allah (saw) in his stances and policies, and acts as the noble Companions, may Allah be pleased with them, and those who followed them in goodness did. A ruler who stands like Abu Bakr, Umar, Harun al-Rashid, al-Mu‘tasim, Salah al-Din, Baibars, Qutuz, and Abdul Hamid. You are in need of a ruler who, when he says a word, it echoes throughout the horizons of the earth, and the enemies tremble from it—a word followed by an action that makes the enemies forget the whispers of Satan. So that Trump and the likes of such criminals would not do to you what they do today, but rather would calculate a thousand calculations for your Khalifah (caliph). You are in need of the Khilafah (Caliphate) which the Messenger of Allah (saw) gave glad tidings of: the second Khilafah Rashidah (rightly guided) on the method of the Prophethood, which Hizb ut Tahrir, the leader that does not lie to its people, is working to establish. So come to work with it and support it, so that you may attain the honor of this world and the success of the Hereafter. Otherwise, if you do not do so, your cowardly rulers will lead you to destruction and deliver you to your enemies.
