Following are excerpts from a video-clip featuring Australian Jihadist sheik Abu Sulayman Al-Muhajir, member of the General Shari’a Committee of Jabhat Al-Nusra. The video-clip was posted on the Internet on April 28, 2014.
Titles: Written by the prisoner Tarek Mehanna - may Allah break his captivity.
The prisoner is in an American prison.
Recited by Sheik Abu Sulayman Al-Mujahir
Sheik Abu Sulayman Al-Mujahir (reciting poem): In the race against fate, they struggle to contain
The light of truth from making gain after gain.
Sitting in this cell, I can never complain,
While countless other victims are sharing my pain.
Victims of a regime that stands confused,
Of what will befall it, after all it has abused.
Despite its claimed virtues over those it has accused,
It nullifies its claims with the tactics it has used.
They tortured one brother into a painful mess,
Until his torture forced him to falsely confess.
Life in supermax for what he said under duress
Seems to be acceptable in present-day U.S.
And our sister, our pearl...
Breaks down crying
Our sister [Aafia Siddiqui], our pearl, a cover-up gone wrong,
Imprisoned by her captors for six years too long,
Shot twice in the stomach and still remaining strong,
Sleeps in a prison cell, where pearls don’t belong.
The scientist, the doctor, the scholar with a plight [the “blind sheik”] –
They claimed they got him because he urged others to fight.
The truth is that he never spoke out of fright,
And his persecutors wanted to extinguish the light.
The examples are many, but this is just a taste
Of those whose suffering should not go to waste.
To help the oppressed let us run in haste.
It is towards this goal that true men have raced.
Remove from yourself the shackles of fear,
And make their agenda abundantly clear.
With honor, let us defend what we hold dear:
Our beliefs and our brethren. We must start from here.
Until when will our...
Breaks down crying
Voice: Say: “Allah Akbar!”
Voices: Allah Akbar!
Voice: Say: “Allah Akbar!”
Voices: Allah Akbar!
Voice: Say: “Allah Akbar!”
Voices: Allah Akbar!
Sheik Abu Sulayman Al-Mujahir: Until when will our sons be dragged from their beds,
To be handcuffed and kidnapped by invading Feds,
Before our mothers can even cover their heads?
It’s the new McCarthyism, and we are the Reds.
If you speak against this, you are a “terrorist” –
The black label reserved for those who resist.
It doesn’t really matter how much you insist
That you are no monster. They will always persist
In the deception they have managed to master so well
That only the fair-minded are able to tell
That this plan that could have only been hatched in Hell
Is for those who speak up to be thrown in a cell.
They think they are “free,” but they are truly constrained.
The thirst for oppression leaves their humanity restrained.
In the end, they will see that all they have gained
Is the attention of He who defends those they have chained.
We ask Allah to free the oppressed.
We ask Allah to make us a reason for their freedom.
Remember this, my brothers and sisters,
There will always be a group of people defending the truth.
There will always remain a people that are defending the truth.
The Prophet Muhammad said: “A group among my nation will continue to fight at the order of Allah, vanquishing their enemy. Noone who opposes them can harm them, and neither can those who let them down, until the coming of the Hour.”
There will remain a small group among you. They will fight against this oppression. Upon the order of Allah, none will harm them: not those that have faced them – the enemies, nor those that have let them down. None will harm them until the Day of Judgment. They will be in the same state.
This is what the Prophet Muhammad said.
We say to our brothers: “If you suffer pain, then surely they suffer pain as you do, but you expect from Allah that which they expect not.”
If you feel pain, don’t they feel pain like you feel pain? By Allah, they stay in fear day and night if they see a brother with a beard. Allah has caused this to happen to them.
But the difference between you and them – don’t you both feel pain? Allah has promised you Paradise. You hope for Paradise, while they hope for nothing.
We ask Allah to make us among those who give victory to this religion.
Voices: Amen.
Sheik Abu Sulayman Al-Mujahir: And to take practical steps for enjoining good and forbidding evil.
