The sons of the world’s seventh strongest army are becoming the victims of false amities. They fall prey to the Kuffar powers, who set upon the Ummah like a pack of ravening wolves. This is only because those leaders, who command them, have lost themselves in worldly benefits. They do not want what the Ummah wants from them. They disobey the orders of Allah (swt). This Ummah today, is in a state, much superior to all the other nations in this world, with its number and the power in its heart and its thirst for liberation and prosperity. However this superior Ummah, despite possessing the world’s most superior armies, is in the most miserable condition. Just as Rasulallah (saw) had informed us already centuries ago.

«يوشك أن تداعى عليكم الأمم من كل أفق كما تداعى الأكلة على قصعتها»، قال: قلنا يا رسول الله أمن قلة بنا يومئذٍ؟ قال: «أنتم يومئذٍ كثير ولكن تكونون كغثاء السيل، ينتزع المهابة من قلوب عدوكم، ويجعل في قلوبكم الوهن»، قلنا وما الوهن ؟ قال: «حب الدنيا وكراهية الموت»

“The nations are about to call each other and set upon you, just as diners set upon food.” It was said: "Will it be because of our small number that day?" He said: “Rather, on that day you will be many, but you will be like foam, like the foam on the river. And Allah will remove the fear of you from the hearts of your enemies and will throw Wahn (weakness) into your hearts.” Someone said: "O Messenger of Allah! What is Wahn?" He said: “Love of the world and the hatred for death.” [Abu Dawud]

However, it is not our Ummah or our soldiers who are caught in “Wahn”, the love of the world and hatred for death, because they are eager to sacrifice their greatest valuables, even their lives, for the sake of their belief. They truly want to believe that those, who lead and command them, are acting upon their Islamic hopes and desires.

Fact is however, that the Turkish government and its leaders have never acted upon the will of the Ummah or Allah. They neither acted upon their own will. They only acted upon the orders of their colonialist masters. So how else can it be explained, why Turkey was not able to intervene in Syria throughout the last (almost) six years?

But today, it is able to send its troops under the pretext of fighting terrorism of ISIL or whatsoever, but was not able to fire a single bullet in order to protect the Muslims who plea for help. Turkey and its leaders, brag that they “helped” to rescue the Muslims from Aleppo, and granting some of them sanctity on its soils. Just as Erdogan preened of rescuing Bana Al-Abad, the seven year old girl from Aleppo, whose mother tweeted during the bombings in her name. No! By Allah! “Dear Bana! It would be more accurate to thank Russia and Iran, instead of Erdogan and Turkey. Because you are in Turkey, only because Russia and Iran allowed you to leave the city, and not because you were rescued! They allowed you to leave your homeland, because Turkey cooperated and agreed to further cooperate with Russia and Iran in wiping out the Muslims from Syria. Rescue is something else... help is something else...

Yes, Turkey provided help throughout these 6 years: it opened its air bases to the Kuffar, that they can easily bomb innocent children and their families... It opened its borders so that Muslim refugees could easily use its waters in rushing into the arms of their murderers, many, too many of them drowning... And it provided help, by accommodating the refugees in refugee camps, strictly controlled, regularly provided with food and medical care, but no hope for a life outside... And finally it helped the Kuffar to get rid of the Mujahidoon who protected Aleppo, by faulting them, and distracting them through its Euphrates Shield Operation... So it could “help” the Kuffar in clearing the city from every single Muslim inside...

Yes, there is terror in Turkey! And there is terror in Syria. Both are conducted by the one and same powers – the united political and military powers of dozens of Kuffar states, with the USA, Russia, and Iran as a spearhead. And this terror will continue unabatedly, unless the leaders of this Ummah, with Turkey in the forefront, correct their mistake, and find their way to the truth. It will continue, unless the Muslim leaders cut their relations with their imperial masters, kick out any of their representatives from the Muslim soils, and start felling their own decisions. Those decisions they promised to fulfill when asking, moreover literally bagging, for the votes of the Ummah. There is not a single person – among neither the simple Ummah, nor the armed forces – who would not sacrifice his life in order to obey the commands of the leaders in Turkey. We witnessed this already during the July 15 coup attempt. So the only thing they have to do is to give the correct Islamic orders. Then, in that case, not only the Muslims, with men, women and young, would flock to the streets; rather the whole Muslim world would rush to fulfill these orders without delay.

However, the first order they have to give is the order for the establishment of the Khilafah "Caliphate" Rashidah upon the Method of the Prophethood. And if they, or anyone among the Ummah, doubts of its immediate success, then remember, that Allah will guide those who help His Deen to success, for this is a promise by Allah (swt),

(يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِن تَنصُرُوا اللَّهَ يَنصُرْكُمْ وَيُثَبِّتْ أَقْدَامَكُمْ)

“O you who have believed, if you support Allah, He will support you and plant firmly your feet.” [Muhammad 7]

(وَمَا ذَلِكَ عَلَى اللَّهِ بِعَزِيزٍ)

“And that is for Allah not difficult.” [Al-Fatir 17]
