Hizb ut-Tahrir has been repeatedly warning the people of the Hasina government's wretchedness in surrendering to the disbelievers and polytheists. We have been warning that Sheikh Hasina has no boundary in serving her masters, the leader of the crusaders, America and the polytheist state, India. In this leaflet we want to draw the people's attention to certain recent events which reveal that her treacherous government is handing the country over to the enemies of Islam and the Muslims.
Firstly, the Hasina government has opened the doors for the murderous American military to establish their presence on Bangladesh's soil. This is clear from the crusader America's military exercises which are taking place in the country, one after another. Nay, indeed it is clear from the fact that the announcements of all these exercises, which have already taken place and will take place, are made by the American embassy, not by the foreign or defence ministry of Bangladesh! So the US embassy issued a press release on 11 April, 2010 stating that the US will hold a military exercise ‘Tiger Shark-2' in the Chittagong and Sylhet divisions through late-May. ‘Tiger Shark-1' has already taken place in November 2009. After that exercise, from mid-February to mid-March 2010, in the name of so-called ‘port calls' three American warships held naval exercises in the Bay of Bengal. Plans have already been made to organize more exercises; ‘Tiger Shark~3' will be held in July and ‘Tiger Shark-4' will be held in September. The Americans claim that these exercises ‘demonstrate the United States government's commitment to Bangladesh and regional security...' However the Muslims of Bangladesh are aware that US ‘commitment' to any country only means subjugation of that country for the sake of US colonial interests. And regional security, world peace etc are old terms repeated by the imperialists to establish their foothold in all the regions of the world.
Secondly, on April 21, the US ambassador to India Timothy J Roemer arrived in Dhaka to discuss India-Bangladesh relations and ways to strengthen counter ‘terrorism' programmes. A spokesman for the American Centre said, "Ambassador Roemer's meetings in Dhaka will focus on the growing prospects between Bangladesh and India for improved counterterrorism cooperation, trade and development, and regional integration." James B Steinberg, the US Deputy Secretary of State arrived the day after on a two day visit. He was visiting India prior to that. The American Centre has spelt out the true purpose of these visits; that is to implement the American project of subjugating Bangladesh into collaborating with polytheist India to prevent the rise of Islam as a political ideology in the region as well as to contain China. They implemented the same project in Pakistan through General Musharaf and his successors, Zardari-Gilani. Sheikh Hasina has now joined the ranks of these traitors against Islam and Muslims. No aware politician believes their nonsense talk about countering the so-called terrorism when what we witness is that the representatives of the world's number one terrorist state is meeting the number one terrorist of this country.
{وَإِذَا رَأَيْتَهُمْ تُعْجِبُكَ أَجْسَامُهُمْ وَإِن يَقُولُوا تَسْمَعْ لِقَوْلِهِمْ كَأَنَّهُمْ خُشُبٌ مُّسَنَّدَةٌ يَحْسَبُونَ كُلَّ صَيْحَةٍ عَلَيْهِمْ هُمُ الْعَدُوُّ فَاحْذَرْهُمْ قَاتَلَهُمُ اللَّهُ أَنَّىٰ يُؤْفَكُونَ}
"And when you look at them, their exteriors please you; and when they speak, you listen to their words. They are as (worthless as hollow) pieces of timber propped up. They think that every cry is against them. They are the enemies, so beware of them. The curse of Allah be on them! How are they deluded (away from the Truth)! [TMQ Surah Al-Munafiqun: 4]
O Muslims!
We have already seen the government make agreements with India which amount to nothing less than surrender. On her visit to Delhi, Sheikh Hasina agreed to hand over Chittagong and Mongla ports to India. She granted India transit through Ashugonj port. Day by day, the Hasina government is becoming bolder in taking treacherous steps against the country. And in order to carry out their treachery without any hindrance they are roasting you in the boiling heat by escalating the fake electricity and gas crisis, like the previous governments. The so-called energy crisis is nothing new and the technical aspects of its solutions are known. The crisis can be solved in less than a year. But instead of taking the steps needed to solve that, the government is keeping you busy with these day to day issues so that this is all you talk about and these issues become your only concerns while they implement the designs of their masters against the country. At the same time they are acting desperately to silence Hizb ut-Tahrir due to the party's brave stance on behalf of Islam and the people and against the imperialists and the evil plans of US-India-Britain regarding Bangladesh. This is the sole reason for the recent arrests of the party's Official Spokesman, Mohiuddin Ahmed and the Deputy Spokesman, Kazi Murshedul Hoque. However the repressive actions of the government will not make the party abandon the people or the Islamic call. The party is intact and its faith in Allah's help against the enemy is resolute. One or two arrests, or ten or fifty or more will not silence the party and Islam and the Muslim Ummah will be victorious and the traitor rulers will face severe punishment on the Day of Judgement. The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said,
"Every traitor will have a flag on the Day of Judgement that will be raised as high as his treachery. There is no treachery greater than that of the leader of the people."
O Muslims!
You must realize that the United States and India are enemy states which work round the clock to subvert the interests of the Islamic Ummah. The imperialists are going full steam ahead with their plans to subjugate Bangladesh. Particularly the leader of the crusaders, the avowed enemy of Islam, America after creating destruction in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan has now set her sight on Bangladesh. They are making plans against you as Muslims whether you are part of a political party or not; whether you are a member of 000 000, Awami League, or BNP. Allah (swt) says:
{مَّا يَوَدُّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ وَلَا الْمُشْرِكِينَ أَن يُنَزَّلَ عَلَيْكُم مِّنْ خَيْرٍ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ وَاللَّهُ يَخْتَصُّ بِرَحْمَتِهِ مَن يَشَاءُ وَاللَّهُ ذُو الْفَضْلِ الْعَظِيمِ}
"Neither those who disbelieve among the People of the Scripture nor Al-Mushrikun like that there should be sent unto you any good from your Lord" [TMQ Surah Al-Baqarah: 105]
Hizb ut-Tahrir calls upon you to start an immediate political struggle against the imperialists and their agents, the treacherous Hasina government. The imperialists installed Sheikh Hasina in power to serve their purpose. Crusader America and polytheist India reached a compromise whereby America will instruct the rulers in the region (especially Pakistan and Bangladesh) to solve the long standing issues with India which will free India's hands and then these two enemies of Islam can develop their partnership to consolidate their foothold in the region. Therefore we see that on the one hand Sheikh Hasina is giving in to India's demands and at the same time securing American presence in the country especially her military's presence so much so that Bangladesh has become a training base for America's murderous soldiers whose hand are drenched with the blood of Muslims in Iraq and Afghanistan.
O People of Power!
Hizb ut-Tahrir calls upon you to take immediate concrete steps to remove the Hasina government from power by giving your nusrah (support) to the party, and hand over authority to the party to re-establish the Khilafah "Caliphate". Sheikh Hasina did not hesitate to conspire with her masters to kill the army officers in Pilkhana. She has now promoted Moinul Islam, who believes in friendship with the Indian enemy, to the rank of Lieutenant General and appointed him as the Army's Chief of General Staff. The longer Sheikh Hasina is allowed to stay in power the more she will conspire together with the crusaders and polytheists to transform the military of the country into a force that serves the purpose of these enemies. Before it is too late, take steps to re-establish the Khilafah "Caliphate". Only the Khilafah "Caliphate" can remove the imperialist influence from the country, and uproot their agents; so do not look towards the return of the BNP alliance to power, hoping that they can one day salvage the situation. You have a duty to the Muslims. The Ummah will be with you, not just in Bangladesh but globally. More than that you have a duty to Allah (SWT); you must respond to His orders. And put your trust in Him (SWT). You have nothing to fear and no one can harm you.
{وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مِنكُمْ وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَيَسْتَخْلِفَنَّهُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ كَمَا اسْتَخْلَفَ الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ وَلَيُمَكِّنَنَّ لَهُمْ دِينَهُمُ الَّذِي ارْتَضَىٰ لَهُمْ وَلَيُبَدِّلَنَّهُم مِّن بَعْدِ خَوْفِهِمْ أَمْنًا يَعْبُدُونَنِي لَا يُشْرِكُونَ بِي شَيْئًا وَمَن كَفَرَ بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ فَأُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْفَاسِقُونَ وعد الله الذين آمنوا منكم وعملوا الصالحات ليستخلفنهم في الأرض كما استخلف الذين من قبلهم وليمكنن لهم دينهم الذي ارتضى لهم وليبدلنهم من بعد خوفهم أمنا يعبدونني لا يشركون بي شيئا ومن كفر بعد ذلك فأولئك هم الفاسقون}
"Allah has promised those among you who believe and do righteous good deeds, that He will, of a surety, grant them in the land, inheritance (of power), as He granted it to those before them; that He will establish in authority their Religion - the one which He has chosen for them; and that He will change (their state), after the fear in which they (lived), to one of security and peace: 'They will worship me (alone) and do not associate anything (in worship) with Me. 'If any do reject faith after this, they are rebellious and wicked." [TMQ Surah An-Nur: 55]
