Syrian Opposition Conference in Cairo: Paving the Way for the Geneva Conference

Syrian opposition conference in Cairo: Paving the way for the Geneva Conference and a roadblock for the loyal people of Syria

(Translated)

On 2nd and 3rd July 2012 a conference was held in Cairo, made up of the secular orientated, unpopular Syrian external opposition, shortly after the Geneva International Conference held on 30/6/2012, which addressed the Syrian issue and laid down an American solution to it. (It was said that the details of the solution depend on the Egyptian model). The opposition conference was meant to be a supplement to the Geneva Conference. So, its stated aim was to develop a common vision for the post-Bashar-regime stage, such that its decisions are consistent with the decisions of the Geneva Conference. In fact this conference came out with a concluding statement of decisions that were prepared in advance. The evidence for this was that the resolutions (of the two conferences) were in total conformity. Though some of the participants denied any consensus, two matters are obvious in these resolutions:

1. Their consistency with the Geneva Conference, where they waived the removal of the whole regime, calling instead for the removal of the head and symbols of the regime. They demanded "the formation of a caretaker government by agreement between the political and revolutionary opposition forces and the de facto authority, together with those whose hands were not stained with the blood of the Syrians or the looting of public money". The document of the National Pledge also dealt with the future constitutional foundations for Syria - which are justice, democracy and pluralism - the same as demanded by the Geneva Conference.

2. The resolutions reveal how much this external opposition is remote from the thinking, judgment and suffering of the Syrian people; and that it is controlled by a Sykes-Picot mentality; and it differs very little from the puppet rulers. It reminded the people more that this opposition was formed by an international will and a regional plan, which prepared the necessary funding for it and the misleading publicity, and drew for it the dubious aims. It thus became clear that it does not represent the rebelling people at all; and the people have come to see it as part of the conspiracy.

O Muslims rebelling in Sham of Islam:

The friends of the West, led by America, together with their treacherous puppet regimes in the region, and their slaves in the representatives of the external opposition, want to waste your blood in this world and the Hereafter. We, in Hizb ut-Tahrir invite you to deliver a slap to the West by declaring your rejection of its conferences, ideas and way of life, which it wants to impose upon you after the Bashar's departure, through a civil democratic state. So, declare that your objective is to please Allah Almighty, by resuming the Islamic way of life accepted for you by your Lord and your Creator, through the establishment of the Khilafah state. Cut off the way for the external opposition that works briskly, conspiring against you. Reject them together, and put your trust in your Lord, your deen and your Prophet, Muhammad peace be upon him, in his good news about the rightly guided Khilafah, and that Sham will be the centre of its abode.

Dear supporters from the good influential people in Sham of Islam:

O loyal leaders of our army! O righteous soldiers of our army! We place in front of you your responsibilities, which Allah and your Ummah will account you for - to protect your people and defend them from the evil of the criminal tyrant, Bashar - and those who support the regime from the disbelieving colonial states.

Hasten your movement to a true comprehensive change that turns the table on the heads of the tyrant, his masters and his gang. Act before them, O brave people! Time is running out for the faithful, especially after the Geneva Conference and its aftermath, the Cairo conference - and the planned meeting to be held by the "Friends of the Syrian people group " in Paris on Friday 06/07/2012 - or another similar conference to be held later in Russia. Make this change for establishing the law (shar') of Allah by giving support to Hizb ut-Tahrir, and know that if Allah Almighty wanted to help a group of believers, no one can stop His command; and if He let down some people, their strength will not avail them against Allah, even if they were supported by all the people on the earth. He, the Almighty said:

{إِنْ يَنْصُرْكُمُ اللَّهُ فَلا غَالِبَ لَكُمْ وَإِنْ يَخْذُلْكُمْ فَمَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يَنْصُرُكُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ وَعَلَى اللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ}


(If Allah helps you, no one can defeat you. And if He let you down, who is else that can help you? And in Allah let the believers put their trust).

Have we passed the message to you? O Allah! Bear witness (that we did)!

An advice to Muslims working in the financial sector

Assalam wa alaikum wa rahmatullah wabarakatahu, Dear Brothers & Sisters, We are saddened to see Muslims today even those who practise many of the rules of Islam are working in jobs which involve haram in the financial sector. They are working in positions which involve usurious (Riba) transactions, insurance, the stock market and the like. Even though many of the clear evidences regarding the severity of the sin of Riba are known, some have justified their job to themselves thinking that they are safe as long as they are not engaged in the actual action of taking or giving Riba. Brothers & Sisters, You should know that the majority of jobs in the financial sector, even the IT jobs in this area are haram (prohibited) as they involve the processing of prohibited contracts. If you work in this sector, do not justify your job to yourself because of the fear of losing your position or having to change your career, fear Allah as he should be feared and consider His law regard

Q&A: Age of separating children in the beds?

Question: Please explain the hukm regarding separation of children in their beds. At what age is separation an obligation upon the parents? Also can a parent sleep in the same bed as their child? Answer: 1- With regards to separating children in their beds, it is clear that the separation which is obligatory is when they reach the age of 7 and not since their birth. This is due to the hadith reported by Daarqutni and al-Hakim from the Messenger (saw) who said: When your children reach the age of 7 then separate their beds and when they reach 10 beat them if they do not pray their salah.’ This is also due to what has been narrated by al-Bazzar on the authority of Abi Rafi’ with the following wording: ‘We found in a sheet near the Messenger of Allah (saw) when he died on which the following was written: Separate the beds of the slave boys and girls and brothers and sisters of 7 years of age.’ The two hadiths are texts on the separation of children when they reach the age of 7. As for the

Q&A: Shari' rule on songs, music, singing & instruments?

The following is a draft translation from the book مسائل فقهية مختارة (Selected fiqhi [jurprudential] issues) by the Mujtahid, Sheikh Abu Iyas Mahmoud Abdul Latif al-Uweida (May Allah protect him) . Please refer to the original Arabic for exact meanings. Question: What is the Shari’ ruling in singing or listening to songs?  What is the hukm of using musical instruments and is its trade allowed? I request you to answer in detail with the evidences? Answer: The Imams ( Mujtahids ) and the jurists have differed on the issue of singing and they have varying opinions such as haraam (prohibited), Makruh (disliked) and Mubah (permissible), the ones who have prohibited it are from the ones who hold the opinion of prohibition of singing as a trade or profession, and a similar opinion has been transmitted from Imam Shafi’i, and from the ones who disliked it is Ahmad Ibn Hanbal who disliked the issue and categorised its performance under disliked acts, a similar opinion has been tran
