“…Do you sit down?” July 30, 2008

“The People of Palestine have drunk from the cup of grief,
And the wound of Hijaaz in you can no longer heal,
Do you sit down?
Do you sit down while the rulers failed to defend our sanctity,
And their chief seeks Kufr and sustains it?
Do you sit down?
Do you sit down while the merchants fail to pay their Zakaat,
To prepare an army full of bold men?
Do you sit down?
Do you sit down while the heroes did not organize their lines,
And could not free al-Quds from the hands of the aggressors?
Do you sit down while the youth’s did not heal the wounds,
And did not fold or dress the corpses of the children?
So where were the sons of Islaam when the war got intense?!
Would they not respond to Allah’s command and strive?
And the sons of Islaam are nothing but generous,
And the disaster of our loss (i.e., al-Aqsa) has left them weary,
But despite,
But despite the wounds,
Their conviction in the return of the glories of the Caliphate is growing,
And all the burdens caused by the traitors,
Are just specs scattered in the way of Jihaad,
And they swore by Allah their Jihaad will continue,
Even if Hercules or Caesar were to challenge them!”
- Shaykh al-Muhaaribeen, Imaam al-Mujaahideen, Abi ‘Abdillaah Usaamah bin Muhammad bin ‘Awad bin Laadin
