RAMADHAN: THE MONTH OF VICTORY

Ramadan the ninth month of the Islamic calendar has many appealing events, but once the Khilafah was destroyed, it became a month of sorrow and bloodshed for Muslims. This year, holy month has entered when our brethren in the Gaza Strip and throughout Palestine have never seen peace. They are being martyred by the Jewish occupying entity, which is supported by the West, with America on the front lines.

Indeed Ramadhan now has become a month of mourning, given that it has been a century since our shield, Khilafah, was abolished by the Kuffar on Rajab 28, 1342, which corresponds to March 3, 1924. It is the 100th Ramadhan, and we Muslims have evolved into people who have to choose which hukm shari’a to follow and which to reject. We’ve been subjected to laws other than those revealed by Allah (swt) for more than 100 Ramadhans.

This is the 100th Ramadan that we endured without implementing a revelation. Despite the fact that Allah (swt) stated that it is a mercy to the universe. A 100th Ramadhan involves living not just without a Khilafah, but also given that we are not fulfilling our obligation to obey a ruler (Khalifah).

Oh Muslims! Remember Ramadhan was a month filled with action and opening up the cities. The Battle of Badr also the opening of Makkah.

During the same holy month of Ramadhan, Salahudeen Al Ayub purified Masjid Al Aqsa of the filth of the Crusaders who had occupied the region.

Today, we are facing the same situation, with the kuffar occupying and defiling our lands, with traitors deployed by the West. Muslims spill blood like no other; Chechnya, Uighur, Sudan, Ethiopia, and Gaza, to name a few. All of this is happening, but the worst fact is that we are unable to fulfill a responsibility that begins with the verse, such as fasting during the holy month of Ramadhan.Allah (SWT) said in Surah Al-Baqarah 216

كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ ٱلْقِتَالُ وَهُوَ كُرْهٌ لَّكُمْۖ وَعَسَىٰٓ أَن تَكْرَهُوا۟ شَيْـًٔا وَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْۖ وَعَسَىٰٓ أَن تُحِبُّوا۟ شَيْـًٔا وَهُوَ شَرٌّ لَّكُمْۗ وَٱللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ وَأَنتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَ

Battle has been enjoined upon you while it is hateful to you. But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allāh knows, while you know not.

These events occur solely because our ummah lacks a leader, Khalifah, who will lead the believers to the battlefields in order to fulfill their obligations. Many of the Islamic rulings have been suspended due to the Khalifah’s absence. This means that every Muslim is obligated to work toward reestablishing the Khilafah. Khilafah is the foundation upon which the pillars of Islam are erected.

Ooh Muslims; you are the best nation that emerged from people. Remember that this is not a month of relaxation; rather, it is a month of activity, and one of the most important of these acts involves striving to reestablish the Islamic system, known as Khilafah. In this month of Ramadhan, let’s rewrite history by working while praying and requesting Allah (SWT) speed up His Nussrah.
