Commemorating 10 Years Of September 11 Attacks:

America Has Lost The War!  

Shawwāl  16, 1432 A.H, Thursday, September 15, 2011

Today, 11th September, 10 years ago, at 8.46 AM and 9.03 AM. The aircraft belonging to American Airlines, Flight 11 hit the WTC North Tower and the United Airlines Flight 175 hit the WTC South Tower. Then, both the WTC twin towers, the symbol of America's Superpower melted down in less than 60 minutes. Unbelievable!

The American president, George W Bush straightaway declared a crusade (“This Crusade...”) and divided the world into two opposing camps, namely "with America" or "with the terrorists!" Now, 10 years have passed since that event which will never be forgotten by humankind, and a Crusade under the name “war on terror” continues to be waged by the United States of America. Does America succeed in the Crusade? Or it is a major defeat that they have suffered?

19 Brave Muslim Youths Destroyed The Arrogance Of America

Portland Airport, Tuesday, 11/09/01, 05.45 AM, two young men who appeared relaxed entered the airport. Both were just like any people who wants to travel, passing through the airport security to ensure they did not miss the morning flight. One man wearing a yellow shirt with light brown trousers and the other with a blue shirt with long black pants. No one expected, 3 hours later, exactly at 08.45AM, Muhammad Atta and Abdul Aziz Al Umary, the two young men captured on the security camera at ME airport, Portland, brought the WTC Twin Towers in New York, Manhattan, to their knees. Subhanallah!

Muhammad Atta and Abdul Aziz Al-Umari were two of the 19 revolutionary fighters of this century, where they successfully attacked the center of their businesses, i.e. the WTC, and their military center, i.e. the Pentagon, on 11th September 2001. According to the statements of the authorities, Muhammad Atta and Abdul Aziz Al-Umari intended to board a plane traveling from Boston to Los Angeles, where they and three others later managed to take control of the American Airlines aircraft with the Flight Number 11 and later slammed it onto the WTC North Tower in New York, the heart of the city. Allahu Akbar!

They were the 19 brave Muslim youths, coming from different places, with one vision and one mission, proving to the world that this ummah still exists. All the 19 brave youths performed an action that was never imagined by anyone before, which in the long run would never be forgotten in the history of mankind. All these 19 youths who loved the akhirah more, did an act of istishhadah, greeting death, reaching for glory in the heart of the city, the WTC building in New York and in the heart of military defense, the Pentagon in Washington, by using the machines of their pride, their technology. So true are the words of a friend, “As long as I die as a Muslim, I'm not worried about how I will be killed.”

Is it true that the WTC was blown up by Muslims? Unfortunately, until now, 10 years after the historical event of 11th September attack, Muslims are still not having a single view on the incident. Most rejected and do not believe that the glorious event was carried out by brave Muslim heroes, “The 19 Magnificent”. They believe that the incident was the result of a fabrication and conspiracy of the enemies of Islam, namely Israel and also America herself, in order to badly stigmatize Islam and the Muslims and to give justifications to their attacks against the Islamic world.

11th September Attack : A Test Of Iman For Every Muslim

A question that always crop up at every commemoration of the 11th September 2001 attack is, “Is it true that the perpetrators of this attack are Muslim? So what is their motive to attack?” There are not a few Muslims out there, until now, who do not believe and cannot accept that the blessed September 11 attack was carried out by 19 brave Muslim youths!

The September 11 attack 10 years ago is a test of iman for every Muslim, a test of tawheed, a test of al wala wal bara (loyalty, partisanship and disloyalty), whether they are given the to the Muslims or to the enemies of Islam, namely the Judeo-Christians.

This logic of iman, tawheed and al wala wal bara is actually very simple and easy. Every Muslim who has the right iman, saheeh tawheed and true al wala wal bara, would surely support other Muslims and be in enmity with their enemies, namely the Judeo-Christians. This simple logic is reflected in the tamsil (metaphor) of the attitude of a buffalo herder when responding to the September 11 attack 10 years ago, compared to the response of a highly educated man.

There is a buffalo herdsman who are not knowledgeable and never received a formal education at all, he only memorizes a few passages in the solat, and even that is incomplete due to his not-so-high intelligence. However, when he heard that the twin towers of the WTC collapsed, then he did not only smile at the devastation of the WTC and the disorderliness of the Pentagon, in fact he instantly jumped up and down as he sounded his flog as a sign of gratitude to Allah, because he had not had the chance to learn the proper way of expressing gratitude in accordance with the Shari'ah. The shepherd could well be immediately branded as the kingpin of terrorism whom must be eradicated. When the shepherd was only following his hanif (upright) human nature (fitrah) and had been given the ease by Allah SWT to be able to distinguish between the Haq (Truth) and the batil (falsehood) and he was being facilitated by Allah to follow it, at least by agreeing with it and offering do'a (prayers).

These conditions differ greatly with the people whose fitrah and mind have been polluted and poisoned, although they are highly educated and have a myriad of religious knowledge. With all their arguments, they would circumvent and reject the fitrah of humanity and the sunatullah of the battle between al-haq and al-batil and tried to resist the truth by thrusting a conspiracy theory. They would say: “It was not done by Muslims, but by the force of a hidden conspiracy, namely the hands of the Zionist Jews.” How naive! Whereas, the illiterate buffalo shepherd, besides being grateful to Allah SWT, he also did not forget to make do'a for the Mujahideen in his own language which means “O, Allah. Help the Mujahideen.”

This is the test of iman for every Muslim on the event of the 11th September 2011 attack. Now, after 10 years, the test of iman is still ongoing, dividing between those who believe and those who doubt .

10 Year After The September 11 Attack: America Is Losing The War!

On 11th September 2011, 19 brave young men from the Muslim Ummah managed to crush America in less than 60 minutes, with the melting down of the symbol of economic arrogance, the WTC twin towers. Since then the world changed drastically.

Post-the attack, the president of America, George W Bush declared a Crusade, by saying “This Crusade...”, and divided the world into two camps only, namely "with us" or "with the terrorists (Mujahideen and Muslims)". Bush was right away furious and gave the world an ultimatum with his words:

“Every nation in every region now has a decision to make. Either you are with us or you are with the terrorists. From this day forward, any nation that continues to harbor or support terrorism will be regarded by the United States as a hostile regime.”

Bush clearly said “This crusade...” and he also said, “This crusade – this war on terrorism – is going to take a while” and he targeted 60 countries? Is not the number of countries in the Islamic world today about 60 countries?

In a press conference on 28-6-1422 H, corresponding with 16-9-2001 AD, some politicians have criticized this expression, by saying, "The president had erred in using the term, the error was due to several things, the Crusade – in effect – had been crushed in the war at the hand of Salahuddin, and it is not appropriate to talk about the destruction again today, when we are in need of assistance…" (Program Nite Line, Channel ABC, )

Whereas, in the Emirates newspaper, al-Bayan, it was mentioned that, the leaders have also expressed that there were terrorists in 60 countries. And that the organization of Al-Qaeda has spread its wings in 60 countries. And they wanted to fight the terrorists in all those countries, in other words, the intended to conduct attacks against the member countries of the OIC, plus some other Asian countries under the pretext of fighting terrorism – such as Philippines – it's just that the politicians are focusing on the Middle East. The region where Sheikh Usamah bin Laden and number of his supporters came from, as well as the leaders who were around him, such as Dr. Ayman Az-Zawahiri, Muhammad ‘Athif –Abu Hafsh– and others.

So, post-the 11th September 2001 attack, America launched the Crusade with other name, i.e. the “War On Terror.” Since then, they have been attacking, torturing and murdering, as well as imprisoning thousands of Muslims from all over the world, in various prisons, such as the Guantanamo, Abu Ghraib, Bagram and others.

But the reality says otherwise. 10 years after the September 11 attack, America is still not winning the war, in fact they are facing a total defeat. At this time, they are embroiled in huge debts due to their financing of the war they never won. America has a debt of more than $ 14000000000000 and the U.S. Military is currently caught in an exhausting war and one that they will never win. In fact, America is facing defeats in all lines and getting closer to an ultimate total defeat.

Instead, they are now trying to reduce the risk of the re-occurrence of the 9/11 incident, currently America and her citizens are always haunted by the return of an attack in the style of the 9/11, in fact even more awful. Approaching the 10th anniversary of the blessed attacks of the September 11, America is increasingly frightened by the reports of a new terror threat on that country. The U.S. Defense Secretary, Leon Panetta has warned not to even allow the threat, considering the higher possibility of the re-occurrence of the 9/11 incident.

Besides the possibility of the re-occurrence of the 9/11 event, which would be even greater than that which had happened, another indication of the defeat of America is in their difficulties to maintain security in two regions of their war i.e. Iraq and Afghanistan. In fact, the trend in the Muslim world today is that they are vying to be able to implement the Islamic law in their respective regions, and be involved in jihad, and seek to end the hegemony of the kafir capitalism camp. So, on the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 events this time, it could be claimed that victory is in the camp of the Mujahideen and defeat is in their enemies, the kafir camp led by America.

America has sustained a total failure and defeat in the last 10 years. The efforts to win the hearts and minds of Muslims have failed. In fact, the non-Muslim people have themselves witnessed the torture, murder and oppression perpetrated by those who should have been the protectors of freedom and democracy.

The lies of Bush, Rumsfeld, Cheney and Blair on the allegations that Iraq was possessing weapons of mass destruction, have ruined themselves and their country in the eyes of innocent civilians. There is no torture and imprisonment before someone is proven guilty. The fair trial, over the past 10 years has been replaced with stale rhetoric, such as for the interests national security. Whereas, America initially wished and promised to protect civilians in Iraq from the brutalities of Saddam Hussein. Today, America and her allies gladly take over the roles of the previous oppressors and which are now embodied in the prisons of Guantanamo, Bagram, Abu Ghroib, where injustice and tyranny are done more carefully and openly.

At the time of Obama, America attempts to save face by forcibly pulling all troops led by America from the lands of the Muslims, accompanied with the big agreement with the death of Sheikh Usamah bin Ladin rahimahullah. However, this instead became a boomerang and triggered a battle that is more powerful, a battle to attack the camp of the Crusaders, as an oath for the launching of 100 offensive operations in retaliation for the death of Sheikh Usamah, and the promise of the birth of 100 Sheikh Usamahs who have lined up to take over the war against the number one enemy of the Muslims, namely America.

This is compounded by the hunger disaster, where wars have systematically destroyed the economy of America. Anti-war groups in America have created a public opinion about the war, the unprecedented high rates of suicide among U.S. soldiers, the global hatred of the world against America and Britain as a result of the war, and the spreading of the ideology of Al-Qaeda among young Muslims that is so fast like a tsunami. All these complete the conclusion that America has indeed been defeated in this war in a complete and shameful way.

Ironically, it is this past 10 years that gives birth to the youth radicalism, the execution of martyrdom operations against American and her allies, and the encouragement for Muslims to further explore the fundamental and uncompromising understandings. History will record that the beginning of the end of the power and the seeds for the restoration of the Islamic State among Muslims commenced on that day, i.e. 11th September 2001. For that, we can say to America that you've lost the war, and the victory of Islam is imminent. Allahu Akbar!

Wallahu’alam bis sowab!
