A call to boycott France after publishing the abusive cartoons

By the Administration of the website

Sayyid Ar-Rifâ’i Al-Husseini: we confirm and reconfirm that there is no solution but by the establishment of a truly guided Caliphate that follows the rules of the Quran and Sunnah.

A French newspaper (upon it, is from [the Wrath of] Allah what it deserves) announces its intention to publish offensive cartoons of the Messenger of Allah, prayers and peace of Allah be upon him, and upon all his family.

Sayyid Ar-Rifâ’i Al-Husseini said, “After hearing that vindictive news about that dissolute Gazette, I said to myself, What shall I do? A few days ago, we have published a statement and news releases, and we have distributed posters in response to the American abusive film.”

When I heard the news of the French newspaper I said, “By Allah, the enemies of Islam will not have more endurance over their falsehood than our endurance over our right in defending our beloved Prophet, the apple of our eyes, Muhammad, prayers and peace of Allah be upon him, and upon his family.”

Sayyid Ar-Rifâ’i Al-Husseini added, “If a monster attacked one of our sons, would it be enough of us, or of the father, to defend his son only once and then give up? Would he say that he would stop defending because he was helpless? Certainly this logic is not accepted by any sane person, not to mention by any loving compassionate father to his son. Therefore, our defense of our Prophet, Muhammad, prayers and peace of Allah be upon him, and upon his family, should be more adamant and persevering. That is because the Messenger of Allah, prayers and peace of Allah be upon him, is dearer to the Muslim than his property, parents, offspring, soul, and all the people.”

Sayyid Ar-Rifâ’i Al-Husseini further said, “Our incapability of removing falsehood by hand -at the moment- does not exempt us from removing it by the tongue, as long as we were able to do that. The Prophet, prayers and peace of Allah be upon him, has said, “He who amongst you sees something abominable should modify it with the help of his hand; and if he has not strength enough to do it, then he should do it with his tongue, and if he has not strength enough to do it, (even) then he should (abhor it) from his heart, and that is the least of faith.” [Reported by Muslim]”

«من رأى منكم منكرا فليغيره بيده. فإن لم يستطع فبلسانه. فإن لم يستطع فبقلبه. وذلك أضعف الإيمان» رواه مسلم

Sayyid Ar-Rifâ’i Al-Husseini said, “Our problem is not with our enemies, as Allah Almighty has informed us about them that they would not leave anything to antagonize Islam, even if it is not effective or influential. Allah Almighty says, {They intend to put out the Light of Allâh (i.e. the Religion of Islâm, this Qur’ân, and the Prophet Muhammad, prayers and peace of Allah be upon him) with their mouths. But Allâh will bring His Light to perfection even though the disbelievers hate (it).} [Surat As-Saf: 8]

{يُرِيدُونَ لِيُطْفِئُوا نُورَ اللَّـهِ بِأَفْوَاهِهِمْ وَاللَّـهُ مُتِمُّ نُورِهِ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْكَافِرُونَ} الصف: 8

Transliteration: Yureedoona liyutfioo noora Allahi biafwahihim waAllahu mutimmu noorihi walaw kariha alkafiroona

The enemies are the enemies from the oldest times. We expect nothing from them but hostility and harm.

In fact, the problem of Muslims is within themselves. They have left the means of pride and dignity. In addition, they have left Jihad. They leaned to this worldly life. They have separated after their unity, and dispersed after being a congregation. Therefore, Allah Almighty has taken away the dread from the hearts of their enemies and threw it in their hearts. Certainly, Allah will not change the condition of a people as long as they do not change their state themselves.

By the Will of Allah, we will continue, patiently, until Allah gives His judgment among us. And He is the Best of judges.

Finally O beloved ones: let us put France in the list of boycotting with America. We are ready to put the whole universe in the list; punishing them, and in defense of our Prophet, Muhammad, prayers and peace of Allah be upon him, and upon his family. The Muslim is ready to eat dirt and to ride horses and mules but that his beloved Prophet, Muhammad, prayers and peace of Allah be upon him, would not be humiliated.

Hence, boycott, and you will be greatly rewarded. And be patient. Surely, Allah is with those who are patient.

Have I conveyed the message, O Allah be my witness.
