2011 THE YEAR IN REVIEW AN ISLAMIC PERSPECTIVE

This last year saw much positive news for Muslims worldwide. The overthrow of many tyrants

in the Muslim world, the amplification of the call for shariah around the world and the defeat of

the US and their alliance in Afghanistan are just three.

The Arab spring which has dominated the headlines this year has been an excellent victory for

Muslims. Getting rid of puppet regimes who were propped up by the West in Tunisia, Egypt and

Libya has paved the way for Islamic groups to fill the vacuum. Although some form of

democratic regime may materialize in the short term, the unfettered ability to call for Islamic law

and to culture the masses about the real long term workable alternative of Shariah law and the

resumption of the Khilafah has begun in earnest. There is already a marked shift in the Islamic

lifestyles, Islamic public appearance and Islamic rhetoric on the streets and in the homes of the

major cities in the Muslim countries in Middle East and Africa. The sacrifice of our Muslim

brothers and sisters has also inspired Muslims languishing under other dictatorships such asSaudi Arabia and Iran to take up the gauntlet and raise the true voice of Islam in the face of the

tyrant leaders. In fact the call for Shariah law today can be heard in every single Muslim country

from Somalia to Indonesia, from Uzbekistan to Nigeria.

The unconcealed failure of capitalism as an ideology capable of fulfilling mankinds needs has

manifested itself in what has been called the occupy phenomenon around the world where

those who have had to suffer the results of man made law are finally fed up and have decided to

occupy various significant capitalist hot spots to vent their anger. The anger at inequality,

discrimination, poverty, exploitation, a lack of prospects for the majority, greed and all the other

illnesses associated with capitalism has led people to ask about alternatives to this system. Withno solution from within the concepts of secularism and liberal democracies forthcoming, Islamic

law i.e. the Shariah has entered into the debate.

In fact the call for the shariah and the rise of Islamic movements in the capitalist world, where

the main bastions of freedom and democracy exist, has become prominent in Belgium, Holland,

Denmark, France, America, Australia and of course in Londonistan (also known as England).

This has mainly taken the shape ofsharia4 groups who have made the authorities and

governments put the call for Islamic law on their agenda. In the UK of course the Cameron

regime proscribedMuslims against Crusaders having been unable to defeat their arguments

through debate and discussion, banning Muslims seemed to them to be the only solution for the

UK regime despite Muslims against Crusades having apparently broken no laws.

However the banning of ideological Islamic movements, the arbitrary imprisonment of innocent

Muslims because they stand for the truth such as Sheikh Abu Qatada and even the cold blooded

murder of Muslims, such as Sheikh Anwar Al-Awlaki and Sheikh Usama Bin Laden has not had

the desired effect for the enemies of Islam and Muslims. Rather it has just galvanised Muslims

further, demonstrated what they have said all along about the real intentions of the Western

leaders and made the resolve of Muslims to implement the shariah and rid their land of

occupiers and puppet regimes even more firm.

With the seeds for the Islamic revival having been firmly laid everywhere around the globe this

past year and with Islam being the fastest growing ideology and religion in the world, a few facts

about Islam and its ruling system (the Khilafah) for us to mull over in 2012 follow:

FACT Islam was implemented as a law and order, with its own unique ruling, social and

economic system from 622 AD (when the Messenger Muhammad established the first Islamic

State in Medina) until 3rd march 1924 (the destruction of the Othmani Khilafah)

FACT the Khilafah (Islamic Ruling system) is the main objective of all serious Islamic

movements.

FACT the Messenger Muhammad (saw) prophesized that there would be an era where the

Khilafah would be absent (i.e. the last 87 years) but that it would return and Muslims would

dominate the world by Islam (known in Arabic as Izhar Ud-Deen)

FACT without the Shariah on state level perhaps 85 % of Islam cannot be implemented

FACT the only real threat, after the collapse of communism, to the hegemony of capitalism is

Islam

FACT Areas of Europe, such as Spain, Greece, Cyprus, Rhodes, Crete and parts of Austria,Switzerland etc implemented the Shariah completely at one point in their history

FACT Islam does not recognize national borders or international bodies such as the UN, IMF

world bank etc these will be abolished when the Khilafah returns. Rather the Muslims will

strive to unite the world under one leader i.e. the khalifah with one law i.e. the Shariah

implemented over the whole of it.

FINALLY... Let we speed-up the efforts to Establish Deen in this 2012 Insha Allah.
