Press Release
O Oppressors: Release the Honorable Man of the Word of Truth if you are sensible?
On 11/07/2015, Sisi’s forces arrested Brother Sharif Zayed, Head of Media Office of Hizb ut Tahrir in Wilayah Egypt in a cowardly ambush that was set up in the Passports Department in Al Mahalla Al-Kubra in Tanta province, and they handed him over to State Security Intelligence which subjected him to torture for six days, then he was placed in the Security squad for five days, and eventually was presented to the prosecutor who ordered the imprisonment of fifteen days followed by another fifteen!
We have waited one month, thinking that perhaps the oppressors will back down and repent for his unfair arrest and release him, but they refused instead they fight the supporters of Allah (swt), and have forgotten or pretend to have forgotten the Qudsi hadith narrated by Bukhari on the authority of Abu Huraira who said the Prophet (saw) said:
إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَالَ: مَنْ عَادَى لِي وَلِيًّا فَقَدْ آذَنْتُهُ بِالحَرْبِ...»»
“Allah (swt) said: I have waged war against the one who takes my supporter as his enemy”.
The one who is at war with Allah will be struck by the disgrace in this world and with the greater punishment of the Hereafter if they only knew.
The criminal tools they claim to have seized from him are papers that contained words of truth... He had proclaimed them in the face of a government that rules by other than what Allah has revealed; ordering them to the good and forbidding them from evil, showing them the halal and warns them from the evil ... advising them and the people, but they placed their fingers in their ears, and covered their faces with their garments and insisted to reject the truth with arrogance ... And when his voice became louder with the truth, their leader in the province mobilized against a handful few and against Sharif who caused his annoyance ... hence the oppressors arrested him!
What the brutal government did is evidence of its bankruptcy and its inability to convince people of its actions, it began to curb the word of truth so as to keep only falsehood and its people, how will this be, and in the Ummah there is Hizb ut Tahrir and its members who work continuously, night and day, making their way amid the rubble of injustice to wipe it out from its roots, no one with them but Allah and He (swt) is a sufficient supporter. Members of Hizb ut Tahrir who are known not to carry a weapon nor a stone nor advocated carrying of weapons not even once in their method to establish the Khilafah, which they work and strive for; but they are known to be carriers of an enlightened thought, and a solid determination stronger than steel. They are not distracted from carrying the truth by arrest or killing or torture, these adversaries did not pressure them to change their path and forsake the truth, or to retaliate against one, not out of fear, but because of their commitment as ordered by Allah Most Strong All Powerful ... So release Brother Sharif, we may remember it and it will soon reckon on your behalf when the Khilafah is established, by the permission of Allah. Do not be tempted by the devil, and believe that the call to Allah will shake due to your conspiracy by arresting this honorable man, because in the party and the Ummah there are a million Sharif ...
﴿يُرِيدُونَ أَن يُطْفِؤُواْ نُورَ اللّهِ بِأَفْوَاهِهِمْ وَيَأْبَى اللّهُ إِلاَّ أَن يُتِمَّ نُورَهُ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْكَافِرُونَ﴾
“They want to extinguish the light of Allah with their mouths, but Allah will perfect His light, although the disbelievers dislike it”
