BABAR AHMAD E-PETITION REFUSAL IS NO SURPRISE

The refusal of the British parliament to discuss the case of Babar Ahmad should come as no surprise for the 140,000 signatories of the e-petition submitted to the UK government. After all it is the same government which incarcerated and abused him in the first place and who have held Sheikh Abu Qatada without charge on and off for 7 years and Sheikh Khalid Al-Fawwaz without charge for 13 years (since Augest 1998) and who engage in torture through rendition and indeed who slaughter innocent Muslim men, women and children with impunity to establish their own economic, military and strategic interests in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Allah (SWT) says clearly in the Qur’an that the Jews and Christains are open enemies to us and that they will not rest until they take us away from the Deen (Islam) and that what they utter from their mouths is hatred but what they conceal in their hearts is far worse. Moreover the British regime are the same regime who have issued the most draconian laws against Muslims such as stop and search, glorification of terrorism, internment for 29 days and who were instrumental in destroying the Islamic State in 1924 and who do all they can to stand in the way of its re-emergence in the Muslim world etc… It is extremely naive to think that they would do anything other than blankly refuse any e-petition submitted to them by Muslims for their own religious causes.

For those who care about Babar Ahmad, we pray that Allah (SWT) accepts your efforts to release him, even though to appeal to the (taghout) regime of the UK for them to legislate is in istelf completely prohibited in Islam in the first place. Rather the Sunnah (Tradition) of the Messenger Muhammad (saw) to release the Aseer (Muslims Hostages) is either (i) to ransom them or (ii) to exchange them or indeed (iii) to break them free! Even though Brother Babar is being tested inside prison is it vital that those who want to help him also pass this test from Allah (SWT) by abiding by his commands in seeking to secure his release.

The banning of Muslims Against Crusades last week and the case of Babar Ahmad are linked in the sense that freedom and democracy have been shown to be false ideas which are tantamount to inconsistency, contradiction, censorship and the dictatorship of the few over the many, according to their own whims and desires. The banning of non-violent ideological groups with whom you disagree and the imprisonment of innocent Muslims on the behest of others runs rough-shod over such foolish ideas.

The clear reality is that, unlike man made law, the superiority of the Shari’ah (Islamic divine law) is that it is not subject to such change, contradiction and compromise or implemented arbitrarily whenever one feels like it. Rather divine law is implemented in its entirety and should even one law be unislamic it will mean a case for the removal of the Khaleefah (i.e. head of the Islamic State).

The case of Babar Ahmad, if nothing else, should serve as a wake up call that the interests of Muslims lie in seeking the pleasure of Allah (SWT) by doing what he asks us to do and not by just following our own desires. The ultimate interest for us all is to attain entry into paradise and not seeking the release of Babar Ahmad. This may mean that brother Babar must spend some more time in prison in seclusion with his Lord until Allah (SWT) finds us a way out for him but at least in the meantime we do send out a message to our youth and community that nothing can be gained from trying to seek justice from the British Governement, whose ultimate goal is to extinguish the light of Allah (SWT).
