In the twenty-first century, all Muslim lands had been occupied by the false tyrants of the time. The civilization, culture, faith, laws and morals of Muslims were being shaped by ideas from the West and the East. They were damaged to such an extent that, even today, Muslims in most Islamic lands have no real control over their faith, their politics or the natural resources of their own countries.
This occupation had weighed heavily on Afghanistan for decades.
Through Western and other false ideas in politics, faith, culture and morality, Afghanistan was deeply damaged culturally, politically and religiously. Yet the brave Afghan nation called these false schemes and conspiracies by their true name: traps of falsehood and disbelief. It never accepted their influence or bowed to their fear and intimidation.
The funeral of the final American occupation and its NATO-led military alliance marks the end of one of the most shameful wars in history. In the history of the Islamic Ummah, it stands as the historic struggle and victory of the Afghan nation against the combined forces of disbelief and falsehood.
The twenty-year war of the Mujahideen against the Americans and NATO did not end merely with the conquest of Afghanistan. In the twenty-first century, it also completely broke the red line that the world had drawn: “Either you accept Western and infidel democracy as your law, or you will be occupied.”
This great victory is a call to freedom for the Islamic Ummah and for Muslims everywhere, a call to rebel against false laws.
The 24th of Asad is the day when the chains of occupation that had been placed around the Muslim Ummah were broken. Muslims who had been cut off and prevented from their own civilization, law and progress once again became the ones who broke those chains, paving the way for Muslims to restore the glory and civilization they once possessed.
