Press Release
Muslims in Syria have declared their revolt is for Allah... so there is no room for Western democracy in it
(Translated)

Muslims in Syria followed the speech of the Egyptian President, Mohamed Morsi at the conference of ‘Non-Aligned' countries held in Tehran, in which he proclaimed the "moral duty" that drove him for solidarity with the revolution in Syria, and expressed his "undiminished full support for it." He then played the same tune as America in calling for the unity of the opposition for building a ‘New Syria', wishing peaceful transition in it towards a "democratic system of governance." He praised the initiative presented by Egypt at Makkah Conference "for getting out of this ordeal," as he called it.   He then said: "The bleeding of Syrian blood is the responsibility of all of us", and that "it will not stop without an active intervention from us ... " We in Syria are surprised at the President in an Islamic country like Egypt, the Kenanah, the land of much bravery, who is considered the supreme commander of an army that for so long defended the Islamic Ummah from the Crusader remnants throughout history. Throughout history, the cities of Al-Sham - from Damascus to Tripoli of Al-Sham, to Al-Quds - witnessed the bravery of this army under the Islamic State, and its defence and protection of Islam and Muslims. Yes, we are surprised that this president has such position: a peaceful transition while watching the bloodshed, and then calling for democratic rule.

He follows the American way of looking at the blood being shed at the hands of the tyrant Bashar and his gangs! It would have been more appropriate for the Egyptian President to announce the mobilisation of the Egyptian army to rescue the Muslims in Syria, from the platform of this ‘Non-Aligned' countries conference, instead of lamenting and crying over the bloodshed in the land of Al-Sham, on the pretext of the moral duty. It would have been better for him, before that, to have refrained from extending his hand to the criminal Ahmadinejad, who has provided the murderous regime in Syria with all kinds of lethal tools for torturing Muslims there. He should have even demanded the expulsion of the Syrian delegation from the hall before he himself entered it, rather than waiting for the delegation of Shabiha to leave the hall in protest against him!

We say here very clearly, that the democratic State mentioned by President Morsi in his speech, which he wanted to attach to us and to our revolution, just as the paid-off Arab satellite channels continue to falsely attach to us, is to please the West. Such a civil democratic State would have no place in Al-Sham, Allah willing. Rather the only valid system in Al-Sham of goodness and blessings would be a rightly guided Khilafah "Caliphate" on the model of the Holy Messenger (SAW) and his Khulafaa' Abu Bakr, Omar, Othman and Ali, may Allah be pleased of all of them; those whose names he mentioned without complying with their unique model of governance in their state, the rightly guided Khilafah "Caliphate" on the model of prophethood, which we are determined to establish in Al-Sham of victory, Allah willing. Indeed, there should be no place in Al- Sham for other than the rule of Allah, in compliance to the words of Allah:

(فَلَا وَرَبِّكَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ حَتَّى يُحَكِّمُوكَ فِيمَا شَجَرَ بَيْنَهُمْ ثُمَّ لَا يَجِدُوا فِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ حَرَجًا مِمَّا قَضَيْتَ وَيُسَلِّمُوا تَسْلِيمًا)

"But no, by the Lord, they can have no (real) Faith, until they make thee judge in all disputes between them, and find in their souls no resistance against Thy decisions, but accept them with the fullest conviction. " (4:65)

And to the saying of the Prophet, peace be upon him and his family:

"عقر دار الخلافة بالشام"

"The centre abode of Khilafah "Caliphate" is in Al-Sham".

Furthermore, we emphasize that we reject gradualism in implementing Islam, because it means mixing Islam and kufr, between truth and falsehood, under the label of gradualism. Indeed, "gradualism" is actually "rolling" in the arms of the West and the people of disbelief, who would not accept for Islam to have any power. We look forward to a Khilafah "Caliphate" State that includes not only Egypt and Syria under the banner of al-'uqab (banner of the Prophet - saw), but every Muslim land that once the banner of the Messenger of Allah (SAW) fluttered over. The Prophet (SAW) said:

" لَيَبْلُغَنَّ هَذَا الْأَمْرُ مَا بَلَغَ اللَّيْلُ وَالنَّهَارُ، وَلَا يَتْرُكُ اللَّهُ بَيْتَ مَدَرٍ وَلَا وَبَرٍ إِلَّا أَدْخَلَهُ اللَّهُ هَذَا الدِّينَ، بِعِزِّ عَزِيزٍ أَوْ بِذُلِّ ذَلِيلٍ، عِزًّا يُعِزُّ اللَّهُ بِهِ الْإِسْلَامَ، وَذُلًّا يُذِلُّ اللَّهُ بِهِ الْكُفْرَ "

"This matter (Islam) will surely reach wherever there was night and day. Allah will never leave a house made of clay or tent without bringing this deen into it, whether by glory of a mighty person or by humiliation of a humiliated person. It is a glory by which Allah strengthens Islam, and a humiliation by which Allah disgraces disbelief." It is narrated by Ahmad.
