Every war and uprising necessitates a cause; it demands a claim, an ideology, and a methodology for which individuals are willing to fight and rally around. When questioned about the rationale behind an uprising or war, it is imperative to demonstrate the ideology and claim that underpin it.
No conflict in history has emerged without a specific set of objectives; rather, each uprising and war is carried out for a particular purpose, often achieving its aims through unparalleled sacrifices. The Islamic Emirate (IEA) represents a noble uprising and jihad, embarking on its struggle for several sacred goals.
Key Objectives of the Islamic Emirate’s Noble Jihad:
1. Eradicating the Foundations of Long-Term Occupation:
Afghanistan has long been subjected to foreign colonialism, invasions, and occupation. Virtually every intelligence agency in the world has conducted either ideological or physical incursions into Afghanistan. Nonetheless, the soldiers of the Emirate successfully expelled them all.
2. Ending the Massacre of Innocent People:
In the course of twenty years, there hasn’t been a day when an innocent person has not been martyred, suffering heavy psychological and physical torture, airstrikes, destruction of homes, heavy raids, being crushed under tanks, dragging living individuals on the road, slaughtering, and other severe oppressions that were witnessed daily.
3. Establishing Comprehensive Security:
Afghanistan has been one of the most insecure countries in the world over the last twenty years, with virtually no semblance of security. The lives and properties of its people were constantly threatened by the actions of the United States, ISIS, and the Republic. Conversely, areas under the control of the Islamic Emirate were deemed the most secure. Nonetheless, these three entities deliberately disrupted security in order to escalate the conflict and claim credit for the senseless loss of innocent lives.
4. Establishing and Implementing a Pure Islamic System:
A corrupt regime associated with the Republic ruled over Afghanistan for two decades. This regime merely used the Islamic label without truly adhering to its principles. The dominant ideologies were those of democracy and Western values. Under the guise of progress and democracy, the regime engaged in widespread immorality opened cinemas, and organized concerts.
Under the divine guidance of Islam, the soldiers of the Islamic Emirate, through the grace of Allah, restored Afghanistan to its former glory. It was once again recognized as a bastion of Islam, where the sacred Shariah law was enforced, a legitimate legal system was set up, and all Western ideologies and isms were expelled.
5. Education and Training of the New Generation:
During the occupation, the younger generation was heavily influenced by foreign ideologies. They were made averse to jihad and Shariah, as their minds were molded according to the beliefs of the colonizers. However, the Islamic Emirate, by the grace of Allah, has successfully eradicated these harmful ideologies from the minds of the youth over the course of three years, instilling in them a spirit grounded in jihad, Islam, and purity.
