Press Release
The Outraged Regime in Jordan in Support of Secularism and Secularists against Hizb ut Tahrir
(Translated)

The regime security apparatus in Jordan carried out on Tuesday day and night, 27/09/2016, a wide frenzied arrest campaign that reached dozens of members of Hizb ut Tahrir in Jordan. Most of the effected were elderly; among whom was the eminent Scholar Mahmoud Aweidah (Abu Iyas), thinker Ali Samadi (Abu Marwan), Sheikh Saeed Radwan (Abu Imad), Sheikh Walid Shahin Hamadeh (Abu Hamada), writer Sheikh Thabit Khawaja (Abu al-Abed) and Fathi Abdul Latif Yousef (Abu Hudhyfah).

This barbaric frenzied campaign waged by the regime on the Hizb comes as a victory for secularism and in response to the demands of the vindictive secularists who have declared war on Islam after the regime in Jordan, has offered them with full facilities, and gave them access to intellectual, political and media platforms. Where this war was reflected in their poisonous writings, their cheap incite on the advocates of Islam and their wicked attack on the provisions of Islam and its ideas. And in the continuation of their attempts to secularize the school curricula to separate the behavior of the students from their Islamic Aqeedah and the provisions of Islam and linking their behavior to the secular dirty obnoxious doctrine that knows no halal or haram, nor contains purity or chastity and voids its owner of any chivalry or honor. Their war was also demonstrated in their attempts, financed by the West, to transform the people’s Aqeedah from Islam to secularism.

O Muslims in Jordan:

The regime that governs you has arrested your brothers, members of Hizb ut Tahrir, because they are your spearhead in defending the creed and the provisions of your Deen. It detains them because they are guarding your ideology and stand in the face of the secular symbols in this country. The aimless regime that governs you has arrested your brothers in Hizb ut Tahrir, thinking it will silence Hizb ut Tahrir, the higher voice of Haq between you, or dissuade it from performing its legitimate duty in guarding Islam, or cripple it from its relentless quest to achieve the project of your revival, Khilafah "Caliphate" Rashidah on the method of the Prophethood.

We in Hizb ut Tahrir / Wilayah Jordan against this frenzied campaign assure the Islamic Ummah in general and the people of Jordan and Ash-Sham in particular, that arrests nor imprisonment ever scared and will never scare the Shabab of Hizb ut Tahrir, and will not deter them from moving towards the Ummah’s revival project, the Khilafah "Caliphate" Rashidah State (Caliphate) on the method of the Prophethood, and will not stop our relentless pursuit to take the leadership of the Ummah towards salvation, dignity and glory.
