THE TRUTH HAS EMERGED AND DECEIT HAS
VANISHED
Speech By Abu Omar Al-Baghdadi,
Amir, Islamic State of Iraq
Verily all praise is unto Allah, we praise
Him, we seek His help and we ask His forgiveness, and we seek Allah's refuge
from the evils of ourselves and the evils of our sins, whoever Allah guides
then none can misguide and who ever Allah misguides then none can guide. And I
bear witness that there is no god but Allah, He has no partner, and I bear
witness that Muhammad is His messenger and servant,
Allah says:
{“We have written in the Zabur (Book of
David) after the remembrance, that the earth shall be inherited by the pious
servants. Verily in this is a message to a worshipping people.} Surah 21:105
Oh Ummah of Islam, my beloved Ummah, your
men have been determined to give Islam its nation, and establish within it its
laws, and to obey therein its commands, and to gather within it its forces. To
this end, they spilled their blood and spent their wealth; they left every
desire and encountered every hardship. They sought out death where it was to be
found, desiring victory or martyrdom, and then came the blessed step of
establishing the firm foundation for the Islamic State in the land of the Two
Rivers following the footsteps of the master of the Prophets and messengers.
Now the building is being raised, seen by all who love it and hate it, that has
led the enemy of Allah Bush to say after its blessed arrival, " They wish
to establish an Islamic state from China
to Spain…"
He told the truth though he is a liar.
I praise Allah and thank Him, that He
guided His soldiers to take this blessed step, and of which one of its early
fruits was the gathering together of over thirteen groups and fighting groups
under one banner. After their blessed announcement after the perfume pact, the
blessed fruits followed rapidly with dozens of groups and thousands of fighters
from Jaish Al Mujahideen, Al-Jaysh Al-Islami, Thwarta Al-Ishreen, Ansar
Al-Sunnah and others all pledging their allegiancein Fallujah, Karmah, Amiriyiah,
Ramadi, Gharbiya, Tarmiyah, Seeniyah, Tikrit Samaraa, Ba'quba, and Al Adheem
then onwards to Mosul, Kirkuk, Tal'afar and our beloved Baghdad. One of the
greatest fruits was that 70% of the Sunni tribal elders rushed to join the
perfume pact and pledge their allegiance to the nation of Islam and Muslims. I
therefore thank my brothers, the elders of the families of Duleim, Jabur,
Ubeid, Zawba', Qais, Izza, Tay', Jinabiyeen, Lihaliyeen, Mushahada, Daymiyah,
Bani Zayd, Al-Mujamma', Bani Shamr, Anza, Sumeida', Nueim, Khazraj, Bani
Luheib, Al-Bohiyaat, Bin Hamdan, Al-Sa'doon, Al Ghanim, Al Saaida, Al
Ma'aadeed, Al Karabila, Al Salman and Al Kubaysaat.
I praise Allah and I thank Him for the
establishment of the Shariah in many parts of this blessed state and by the
request and pressure from our people themselves. We have set up for them courts
to resolve the conflict between them and Allah has favored us (by enabling us)
to resolve disputes that had continued for two decades of time that even they
themselves had grown tired of. The laws of Allah have been implemented in many
areas of this exalted nation. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said "That
one law (of Allah) be implemented on earth, it is indeed better than they be
rained on for seventy mornings."
Again this too came by the request of our
people themselves to the point that a man came with his daughter, which is very
common in Iraq
and she had committed adultery and said, implement on her the law of Allah and
another man came confessing of it. And the law was implemented on him after the
Friday prayer in a majestic scene in front of the people who cried out “Allah
is the greatest” because they, for the first time in their life, saw a law of
Allah being implemented and the false excuses of the people of mischief sprang
forward and we expelled them from many of the places. We then started putting
workers forward to collect the Zakah and to collect taxes and the charities
throughout most of Islamic nation.
Allah the Almighty says;
{"And take from them their charity
money that cleanse them and purify with it"}. Surah 9:103
What has come to pass shows the falsehood
of those who said that there is no power (thorn) or acceptance for us. As the
hand of Allah is the highest and the word of the Mujahideen is the established
one in most of the places. Even the enemy confesses to this when it said that
the Al-Qaeda organization has taken control of Anbar and has earned fame there.
And Al-Qaeda is nothing more than a group in the groups of the Islamic nation
and we in Naina and in Salahuddien, for example, and in Diyala are better than
that. As for in Baghdad both the high and the low among them know that the sons
of this nation are the soldiers of Allah who have encountered and cut the hands
of the cunning Magians over a long period and nothing is stopping us from
taking complete control except matters that are not yet in place yet we are
confident that Allah will soon dispose it by His power and Might.
Allah knows, I have refused over and over
to be the Commander of the Muslims and I did not dream of being anything except
a soldier in the large assemblage of the Muslims, fighting in the way of Allah
until Allah is worshipped alone. I have never been a Commander from the
Commanders of these groups but the people surrounded us and saw goodness in us
so we pray to Allah to make me better than what they think. I decided not to
take any decision except after consultation of my brothers and for that we have
set up a vast Majlis Shura Council (the consultancy council). In it are three
representatives of each group that has joined the Islamic nation that does not
take into consideration the size of its forces or the size of its operations.
There are also representatives from some of the bigger families besides some
others with specialized skills and experience. From this a smaller Majlis Shura
Council was formed consisting of five people to ponder over matters that are
important and require immediate decision making and we ask Allah success and guidance.
O Ummah of Islam, we have been slain by
the knife of nationality and then we were divided by the shredder of patriotism
to a country and then we were called back to be divided on the basis of
tribalism. These we all the calls of ignorance.
O the Ummah of Islam, we are not in need
today of those who shed tears or those who compose poems. We are today in need
of those who makes sacrifices and listened to Allah’s words to "march
forth heavy or light" and then flew off his bed, brushed cowardice and
lowness from his breast and rode in the direction of jihad, his appearance no
longer hidden.
To this end we call first upon the groups
of former Iraqi army officials from the rank of an ordinary soldier to the
officers to join the army of the Islamic state; on the condition that the
candidate must know by heart at three sections of the Holy Quran and passes an
exam on Aqeedah (belief) conducted by the Shariah committee that is present in
every area so that his disbelief on arrogance and tyranny becomes apparent. We
in turn with the will of Allah provide him with transportation, housing, a
proper salary that ensures him a respectful life like the rest of the
Mujahideen who come under the flag of Islamic state.
Allah (swt) says:
{“Those who believe fight in the cause of
Allah, and those who reject faith fight in the cause of evil (Tagut): so fight
ye against the friends, of Satan: feeble indeed is the cunning of Satan.”}
Surah 4: 76
O the Ummah of Islam, my beloved Ummah,
the defiant one is becoming weary and has started searching for an escape and
striving for talks with every possible sides and parties. It has through its
agents the Family of Sulul (the house of Saud), the tyrants of the peninsula
has sent word to us that they (America) have met with each party except us and
that they are seeking talks with us.
We say to them, we are not of those who
talk with the ones who have been spilled in the blood of our children, shed the
tears of our mothers and has made our land impure by their feet. Today we issue
this order so accept it obediently and with humility before you regret the
consequences. We order you to pull your forces out immediately under these
conditions;
1. The pull out must be only on personnel
carriers and personnel transport aircraft
2. Each member of the withdrawing forces
is only allowed to carry light weapons. All other heavy weapons, war gear, and
other equipment must be left behind.
3. All military bases must be handed over
to the Islamic State of Iraq.
4. The length of time to make this
withdrawl is only one month and we in our turn will allow your pullout without
its getting attacked by any road side bomb or attack.
5. We wait for your response during the
next two weeks from this declaration.
As for those who are holding secret talks
tell them to stop the military operations for one month, even in a single
district, if they were true in their claim that they have control over the
Mujahideen and the leaders of the resistance and await for the results. Then
you will understand you fools that you are holding talks with cowards and liars
like yourself.
And we say to Bush don’t waste this
historic opportunity to withdraw safely like you wasted the offer of amnesty
proposed by the Sheikh of Mujahideen, Sheikh Osama bin Laden, may Allah
preserve him.
And I warn you that your now familiar
stupidity should you commit more massacres in the innocent civilians and our
women and children. You had dare not increase the volcano with fire for that is
better for you are safer.
Allah (SWT) says:
{” Seest thou not how thy Lord dealt with
the Àd (people), of the (city of) Iram, with lofty pillars, The like of which
were not produced in (all) the land? And with the Thamüd (people), who cut out
(huge) rocks in the valley? And with Pharaoh, lord of stakes? (All) these
transgressed beyond bounds in the lands, and heaped therein mischief (on
mischief). Therefore did thy Lord pour on them a scourge of diverse chastisements:
For thy Lord is Watchful.”} Surah 89: 6 – 14
Oh Ummah of Jihad, we are in the days of
Allah when good deeds are doubled. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “there
are no days in which good deeds are more beloved to Allah than these days.” And
it is indeed the mercy of our Lord; so they faced it, and the doors of Paradise have opened so hurry to seek after it. Indeed we
find the wind of paradise in the explosives of our propellers, so let not its
scent escape you and the crown of glory worn by the Mujahideen. Do not deny
yourselves its credit.
In these blessed days we declare a raid by
the name of “The Forceful Expedition” that will finish by the end of Eid. Force
back the enemy and show it your power and be united for those together are
victorious. Minimize the differences of your commanders and let the slogan of
every Mujahid be:
{“Then fight O Muhammad (SAWS? in the
cause of Allah, your are not tasked (held responsible) except for yourself, and
incite the believers (to fight along with you) “ Surah 4:84
And fear the saying of Allah:
{"If you march not forth, he will
punish you with a painful torment and will replace you by another people…”}
Surah 9:39
Seek the glad tidings of the victory of
Allah for its coming inevitably, for the promise of Allah is true and rely on
Allah the One, the Only, the Mighty, the Powerful.
{“And he who puts his trust on Allah then
He is sufficient for him”} Surah 65:3
And remember the saying of your Lord:
{"Fighting is prescribed upon you,
and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for
you.”} Surah 2:216
And know that you have brothers who have
raced you on this path:
{"Among the believers are men who
have been true to their covenant with Allah i.e. they have gone out for Jihad
(holy fighting), and showed not their backs to the disbelievers; of them some
have fulfilled their obligations (i.e. have been martyred); and some of them
are still waiting, but they have never changed (i.e. they never proved
treacherous to their covenant which they concluded with Allah) in the least.”}
Surah 33:23
And Allah is victorious in His decree, but
most people do not know.
Your brother,
