Post Your Messages of Support for Sister Aafia Siddiqui! August 14, 2008

Posted by revolution in : Sorrow , trackback

There is a brother who will be collecting all letters from the Muslim Community to give to our beloved Sister Aafia Siddiqui. The purpose is to comfort her and to put a smile on her face knowing that there are Muslims who feel for her. None of us know just how horrible the pain has been inflicted upon her by the Americans.

You can read more about her here and here.

This is what the brother wrote,

Please post your messages of support for our sister Aafia Siddiqui here, and when there are enough of them, I will make a printout and give them to her lawyer to pass on to her.

In case you don’t want your name to be seen by anyone for some reason, I will be copying and pasting all the messages onto a Word file so as to show nothing more than the actual message (unless you want to sign your name at the bottom of yours).

You have no idea what this woman is going through! Please make this a long, comforting thread!

Please leave a comforting comment for our Sister and she will read it, inshaa’Allaah. Don’t worry about repeating another person’s comment. Don’t even worry about elegant and beautiful words… rather, show your support, even if it’s a few lines. Please don’t think twice about this; just go ahead and get the blessings from Allah Ta’aalaa, inshaa’Allaah.

So we’ll start with our message to Sr. Aafia Siddiqui:

Dear Sister Aafia,

Assalam Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh.

May this message reach you in strong Imaan and Resolve.

When our four brothers that escaped Baghram’s prison - with Allah’s help - came out with a tape discussing what they went through at the prison and how they escaped from the hands of the tyrants, some of them mentioned a prisoner by the name “Prisoner 650.” This was the first time we heard of this and we were deeply saddened by the plight of such a sister… they would describe her screams… thoughts came to our mind as to her situation and we only hoped for the best.

Later, the lying Americans came out with a story describing you as a terrorist, and this and that… ignoring the fact that you were rotting in their prisons - tortured and raped severely - for years. Immediately, thoughts of “Prisoner 650″ came to our mind and very quickly, it was revealed that it was you after all.

And now that you are brought to this Daar al-Kufr - may Allah humiliate its Government - we feel that you are an arm-stretch away from many of us. And here, we apologize… and we apologize… and feel ashamed… and we know that our apologies and feelings are not enough.

However, we want to congratulate you… and we want to congratulate… and we want to congratulate… because Allah Ta’aalaa has given you the status of those whom the Jews and Christians are not pleased with.

And never will the Jews or the Christians be satisfied with you unless you follow their form of religion. [al-Baqarah: 120]

And they wish for you to follow either their Religion of disbelief and blasphemy, or for you to follow a watered-down form of Islaam that kisses the hand that slaps it. And by Allah, you are above their evil wishes!

AllahuAkbar Sister Aafia!

How the green birds of the garden are wishing to be in your place,

To die in that honor, come back to life, and die again…

Just so that they can taste that sweetness of honor from Allah,

Rabb al-’Aalameen!

You went from the University of MIT, to the most Prestigious University of Islaam: The Prison. And it was Yusuf, ‘alayhis salaam, who showed us that the Haqq is with the minority.

But Walahi. Walahi. This doesn’t give us a reason to be satisfied with your plight. Walahi. The Armies of Muhammad, sallallahu ‘alayhi wassallam, would travel from the four corners of the globe to save a Sister… so Patience, my sister. Verily, with Patience does Allah open the doors to His Mercy. You were unknown for years… hidden in a dark prison… beaten and raped… screams going unheard… and perhaps you thought to yourself that the rest of your life will be like this… and many in your place would have committed suicide… but with your patience and steadfastness, Allah showed you His plans and made you the most beloved Sister to your Ummah… at least amongst those who wish to live and die for Allah ‘Azza wa Jall.

Don’t loose hope in the plan of Allah as He is plotting and planning whilst the scum of the earth are also plotting and planning. And it is Allah who is the best of planners.

Stay firm my dear Sister. Stay firm on your Religion and show the enemy the face of honor, allegiance [to Allah] and disavowal [to Allah's enemies].

Indeed, the Ummah has failed you. And many of us accept this failure and we weep over it.

But it is Allah who will open the way for you… and it is us, your Ummah, who will provide the stepping stones to that open way.

We pray for you Sister. Many of us have started (and will start) to announce your plight after the Salatul Jum’ah around the Country (and hopefully around the world)… there are many of us who care about you and love you for the sake of Allah… and the minute you lose our trust, we have lost our religion…

Sincerely,

The bloggers of “inshallahshaheed”

Salaamu’alaykum wr wb ya akhi,

Where do we post the messages for the sister Aafia?

Jazakumallah Khayran!

2. Abu Yunus - August 14, 2008

Dear Sister Afia,

I pray that Allah put sakeena in your heart. We pray that Allah shower you with His eternal mercy. We are indeed ashamed to be going after Dunya while a beloved sister is suffering at the hands of the tyrants, the pharoas of our times. We ask Allah during this blessed month of Sha’aban to protect your children. Please remain steadfast as Yusuf alayhi salam went through prison as well and Allah made him even stronger in iman and also in the worldly sense. Please know that there are those of our brothers/sisters to whom Allah showed the ways out of prison.

May Allah subhanahu watala protect your and give calmness to your heart.

as-salaamu alaykum sister Siddiqui
Please don’t lose heart…
May Allaah put an everlasting smile on your face and light that never fades…
What is in the hereafter ia better for the Mu’mineen…
Every one will be tested according to their level of Imaan…
May Allaah give you the highest levels of Jannah…
My sister please don’t lose heart, if you take one step in Jannah you will forget any bad that happened in this dunya!
We love you for the sake of Allaah
wa-salaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakatuhu

5. Murdiyyah Al-Ghareebah - August 14, 2008

Assalam Alaikum Warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu Wa Maghfiratuh

I am moved to tears and speechless from the words of my beloved ukhtee. Even if you do not consider me your sister in Islam for being of no aid in the time of your hardships, I still desire to be that sister one day who will benefit her dearest sisters, the blessed gems of this Ummah—the striving mothers and wives and daughters like you. I desire to protect your chastity as I would my own or even more if I could. Sadly, you have faced trials where no parent, no husband, no child, no family or friend was able to aid you at such times—only the reliance of Allaah swt alone has saved you. SubhanAllaah ukhtee, and that is all you need! It is almost as if an excerpt from the Day of Judgment. Except that you can still call out to Allaah swt and you have! Alhamdulillahi Rabbil Aalameen! Ukhtee, Allaah swt is preparing you for the Day of Judgment, where too none will be able to save you but your own deeds. May Allaah swt preserve your beautiful deeds and increase them multifold with every breath you take, for you have persevered in patience and steadfastness! And for those of us who sit behind, we sit behind for the fuel of the Fire. Maybe there are some of us, dear ukhtee, that could not afford our “horses,” that could not afford our ammunitions, our airplane tickets, our support, or simply could not find our way to come for you. As for those of us, please forgive us! But for those of us who have used no effort to avail you, may Allaah swt guide us! May Allaah swt guide us! May Allaah swt guide us!

Ukhtee, for a mother who has lost her three children (temporarily inshaAllaah), you have been promised Paradise and re-unity with them inshaAllaah ta’ala. Know this, wherever your kids are, they are in Allaah swt’s hands. Nothing can happen to them except what is best for your and their Aakhirah because Allaah swt is the Best of Planners. InshaAllaah may they be His favored slaves in Duniya and Aakhirah. Ukhtee, every pain they go through, you go through, is a way of Allaah swt increasing your rewards in Jannah. Our mothers in Islam have seen their children’s bodies in severest of conditions and uttered words like “That is all you can do?” They have pushed their children on the battlefields of this temporary Dunya to not come back until they have attained Paradise. Our mothers desire us to be in the forefront of receiving Pleasure from Allaah swt, the Pleasure of His Face, so that we can be witnesses for our beloved mothers on the Day of Recompense.

Ukhtee, you have persevered through so much troubles and pain, and along with it, SubhanAllaah, Allaah swt has granted you Sabr and Istiqaamah and may you only increase in these two qualities to the Last Day. May you be raised with the righteous yaa ukhtee, raised with the Prophets (Allaah’s Peace and Blessings be upon them all), raised with the pioneers of Islam, the blessed Sahabah (May Allaah swt be pleased with them all), raised with the Martyrs of Tawheed of every generation, raised with your children, to the Glad Tidings of Jannatul Firdaws.

I love you for the sake of Allaah dear ukhtee. Please keep us in your du’at for Guidance, for your du’at are of the first to reach Allaah swt. Allaah swt, the Perfect King of the Perfect Dominion, is the Most Merciful, the Most Just. He is First to free His oppressed slave. He is First to give Justice in Quickness and Severity. You have nothing to fear yaa ukhtee and nothing to be ashamed of. You should stand tall that Allaah swt has chosen you to be a flag bearer of Islam in times when people have left this Perfect Religion, this Perfect Call.

And I leave you with this. Ukhtee, know that Allaah swt has saved you from the Hypocrisy of the people, especially of those who call themselves “Muslim.” He has distinguished the truth from falsehood and made it clear for you. As for many, the truth is blurred in order to accept it and be saved from trials. Many of us do not see that if a single Muslim is imprisoned, the entire Ummah is humiliated. We are not a brotherhood. The small portion that wants unity is criticized for being extreme and ethnocentric—for the extremes we will take to preserve this brotherhood, no matter how small. Don’t forget about this minority. Stay strong, honorable slave! Whom Allaah swt Honors, none can dishonor!

11. Your Brother in ISLAM - August 15, 2008

Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatahu Sister….I am lost for words and nothing can describe the pain that i feel inside my dear sister. Please know that you are not alone sister (Prophet Muhammad(SAWS) said the Muslims in their Love Mercy and Affection for each other is like one body . When one part of the body is affected the whole body is affected) and as write this tears roll down my cheeks…out of pain and joy. I know one might ask why of joy. My tears of joy are because the VICTORY of ISLAM in near and the life of this dunya is short lived. Oh dear Sister, even though you don’t know who I am or where I’m from I feel as though I know you very well….because you are my sister we both stand on LA ILLAHA ILLALLAH MUAHAMMAD RASOOLALLAH ! You must NEVER forget Sister, VICTORY will ALWAYS be with ALLAH (SWT) and those who rightfully follow the Sunnah of Muhammad (SAWS). Even in the darkest hours and in the most remote dungeons of dunya, ALLAH (SWT) is fully aware of what they do. NOTHING…. AND I MEAN NOTHING CAN BE HIDDEN FROM THE SIGHT OF ALLAH (SWT). My dear sister Please remain STRONG…and know that after hardship comes EASE..Oh Sister we ALL LOVE YOU for the sake of ALLAH.

‘Don’t feel down and don’t feel defeated, you are the best if you are believers.’ [EMQ Aali ‘Imran 3:139]

Those who the people said that they should fear from when they heard people are going to arrest them,
their Imaan increased. And they said ‘we rely on Allah and he is the best to rely on’. They are with the blessing of Allah.
They are the people who follow the line of Allah. Don’t fear them, fear me if you are believers.’ [EMQ 3: 172-173]

dear my beloved sister

insha allah with the help of allah azzawajal we have changed, we haven’t forgot the letter of fatima, still i haven’t acted, and now i’ve heard of u, and insha allah now with the help of allah azzawajal i’ve deciced to change.

and insha allah i myself as a muslim will take revenge on those kuffar soon

“Honor, power and glory belong to Allah, to his messenger, and to the believers, but the hypocrites know not.” ( 63:8)

pls forgive

16. qudsiya - August 15, 2008

Asalam alaikum dear sister,

You are in our duas.

Allah(s.w.t) says :
And When My servants ask you about Me, I am indeed close: I
listen to the prayer of every praying person when he calls on
Me: [2:186]

Also,
The Prophet (pbuh) said:

“If anyone continually asks forgiveness, Allah will appoint for him a way out of every distress, relief from anxiety, and will provide for him from where he never realized.”
- Abu Dawood

with each difficulty there is relief.(Surah 94:5,6)

Asmaa’ bint Omays, radi Allahu ‘anha, said: Allah’s Messenger,
sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam, told me, “Shall I not teach you
words to say whenever you are aflicted with something? Say:
‘Allahu Rabbi (Allah is my Lord), Laa Shareeka lah (He has no
partner).’” - Abu Dawood

The Prophet (salla Allahu alihi wa sallam) said, “Whatever befalls the believer: thirst, fatigue, worry, sadness, depression, harm, even if a thorn pierces his body, but a forgiveness from Allah follows that.” [Al-Bukhari & Muslim].
-So lose not heart, nor fall into despair;
Dua is the essence of worship (the Prophet as quoted in Tirmidhi).

Sister May Allah(s.w.t) grant you patience. May He grant you patience.Ameen

The following was posted by sazraq; unfortunately, they posted their message to Aafia in the wrong place, so we are moving it here:

Dear ukhti

What can your enemies do to you if Allah protects you and honors you with trials and tribulations that will will bring you closer to him and returns you to your orginal home the vast gardens in paradise and we know the results for the honored people who preservered for Allah and where are they now ,they are rememered by every creature of Allah (s.w.t).What you have gone through in this day and age makes every believers burn inside of him and may Allah hasten your release and your children

18. Abdul Aziz - August 15, 2008

Asalaamu’Alaykum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakhatahu O Sister!

We have not forgotten you! Rather, the people of this Ummah are remembering your struggles and we are anxiously hoping for your release from the jails of Kufr. We are in a deep state of sorrow for what has been done to you, and we ask Allaah ‘Azza Wa Jall for forgiveness that we have not done anything about your situation.

There is one thing I must say, and that is remember Allaah Subhana wa Ta’aalaa. Read His Qur’an, and follow in the footsteps of the many who, for their Tawheed and Imaan in Allah and His Rasool (SAWW), have been imprisoned and put in the same circumstances as you. I know many who have been arrested in the same or similar circumstances as you- including my friend’s father, Haroon Rashid of Denver, Colorado, and the da’ee Homaidan Al-Turki.

O Sister! We, the Ummah of Muhammad (Sallallahu ‘alaihi wa Sallaam) are in a great state of sorrow for you and all the other imprisoned Muslims! Know that it is we who care and support you!
Know that we have never forgotten you and as soon as we heard your case, we let out an outcry and we made the most sincere Du’aa to Allaah (Subhanahu wa Ta’aalaa) to liberate you and make your case heard!

Know that many before you have suffered- and you are not the first to go through these struggles because you believed in God and His Messenger (SAWW), and the mighty deen of Islaam! We love you and we hope that you find in the Hereafter great success, and garden upon garden, fountain upon fountain, of Jannah, Insha’Allaah if that is His (swt) Qadr.

Fi Amanillah ya ukhti!

Wasalaam warahmatullah!!

19. a sister in Islam - August 15, 2008

assalamu alaikum

dear sister Aafia. I’ve nothing much to tell you except pls continue to be patient and strong. you and your family along w/ the entire ummah are in my each and every du’a inshaAllah.

as for your torturers, this ayah comes into my mind:

[Mursalat 77:46] “Eat and enjoy for a while - indeed you are the criminals.”

May Allah increase the kuffar in nothing but torture in the hell fire. Ameen.

20. Bushra - August 15, 2008

You are NOT alone..a whole UMMAH of Dua’s are with you InshAllah..

Allah will punish those who inflict pain on others…

take care sister….your sister in Islam Bushra

21. From An Ashamed Sister Who Only Has Words - August 15, 2008

Assalam Alaikm warahmatullah yaaa Aafia ukhtee

Allaah swt has given you this trial because He loves you. He loves when you call on Him. What a beautiful soul you have dear Aafia! He loves to hear His dear Aafia’s voice calling out to Him, a tongue He has blessed for such a grand task. And He Promises to answer every sincere caller, so imagine the Promises awaiting you—fulfilled by Allaah ‘Azza wa Jall Himself the Most High! Imagine the unseen—the unknown pleasures of the senses and beyond. Imagine the hidden Treasures, the hidden Mercies of Your Lord. This Duniya is temporary, you will never be satisfied here. Never. Even the richest pigs and scums of the earth who devour all the wealth of the orphans and the poor are not satisfied.

Our souls were created for Jannah. Jannah is what you will get in return, but not those mockers of Islam. They will ask on that Day to perish! Most of all, ukhtee, think of the relationship this is strengthening—between you and Allaah swt. One of the few instances where Allaah swt laughs at His distressed believing slave—when the slave is going through trials that are raising her ranks in Jannah and so she weeps but if she were to see the rewards that await her for this hardship, and when she finally arrives at her destination—the Pleasure of Her Lord’s Face, He will ask her, “Remember when so-and-so happened?” then will the slave fully understand Her Lord and laugh a joyful laugh, inshaAllaah! Imagine the faces on that day—how wide they will be grinning?! This pleasure is yours, to smile up at Your Lord! This moment will be yours to share with Allaah swt endlessly! A pleasure so sweet, so complete, just the thought of it makes one cry—tears of joy.

Put a smile on that beautiful face ukhtee, because as for your enemies, this is what will happen to them:

Soorah Al-Isra (17): Aayah 97
It is he whom Allah guides, that is on true Guidance; but he whom He leaves astray - for such wilt thou find no protector besides Him. On the Day of Judgment We shall gather, them together, prone on their faces, blind, dumb, and deaf: their abode will be Hell: every time it shows abatement, We shall increase for them the fierceness of the Fire.

Soorah Al-Mudatthir (74): Aayat 26-29
Soon will I cast him into Hell-Fire! And what will explain to thee what Hell-Fire is? Naught doth it permit to endure, and naught doth it leave alone!—
Darkening and changing the color of man!
Over it are nineteen (guardians and keepers of Hell).
And We have not made the guardians of the Fire except angels.
And We have made their number only as a trial for the unbelievers – in order that the People of the Book may be certain and that the believers may increase in faith, and so that the People of the Book and the believers would not doubt, And that those in whose hearts is a disease and the unbelievers would say, ‘What example does Allah intend by this?’ Thus does Allah leave to stray whom He pleases and guides whom He pleases. And none can know the hosts of your Lord except He. And this is nothing other than a warning to mankind.

Soorat An-Nisa (4): Aayah 56
Those who reject our Signs, We shall soon cast into the Fire: as often as their skins are roasted through, We shall change them for fresh skins, that they may taste the penalty: for Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise.

Soorat Al-Waqia (56): Aayat 41-47
And those on the Left Hand how (unfortunate) will be those on the Left Hand? In fierce hot wind and boiling water. And shadow of black smoke. (That shadow) neither cool, nor (even) pleasant, Verily, before that, they indulged in luxury, And were persisting in great sin (joining partners in worship along with Allâh, committing murder and other crimes). And they used to say: “When we die and become dust and bones, shall we then indeed be resurrected?

Soorat Al-Waqia (56): Aayat 51-56
“Then moreover, verily, you the erring-ones, the deniers (of Resurrection)! You verily will eat of the trees of Zaqqûm. Then you will fill your bellies therewith, And drink boiling water on top of it. And you will drink like diseased camels raging with thirst!” Such will be their ENTERTAINMENT on the Day of Requital!

Soorat Al-Maarij (70): Aayat 10-16
And no familiar friend will ask a question of his friend, though they shall be made to see one another (on the Day of Resurrection). The Mujrim would desire to ransom himself from the punishment of that Day by his children. And his wife and his brother, And his kindred who sheltered him, And all that are in the earth, so that it might save him. By no means! Verily, it will be the Fire of Hell! Taking away the head skin (burning away right to the skull)!

Soorat Al-Humaza (104): Aayat 5-9
And what will explain to thee That which Breaks to Pieces [the Crushing Fire]? (It is) the Fire of (the Wrath of) Allah kindled (to a blaze), The which doth mount (Right) to the Hearts: It shall be made into a vault over them, In columns outstretched

Soorat Az-Zukhruf (43): Aayat 74-79
Verily, the Mujrimûn will be in the torment of Hell to abide therein forever. (The torment) will not be lightened for them, and they will be plunged into destruction with deep regrets, sorrows and in despair therein. We wronged them not, but they were the Zâlimûn. And they will cry: “O Malik (Keeper of Hell)! Let your Lord make an end of us.” He will say: “Verily you shall abide forever.” Indeed We have brought the Truth (Muhammad SAW with the Qur’ân) to you, but most of you have a hatred for the Truth. Or have they plotted some plan? Then We too are planning.

Soorat Ad-Dukhan (44): Aayat 43-50
Verily the tree of Zaqqum
Will be the food of the Sinful—
Like molten brass; it will boil in their insides.
Like the boiling of scalding water.
(A voice will cry: “Seize ye him and drag him into
the midst of the Blazing Fire!
Then pour over his head the Penalty of Boiling Water,
Taste thou (this)! Truly was thou mighty, full of honor!
Truly this is what you used to doubt!”

Soorah Sad (38): Aayat 56-58
Hell!—they will burn therein—an evil bed (indeed to lie on), Yea, such!—then shall they taste it—a boiling fluid, and a filthy fluid of pus and blood [dirty wound discharges]!—And other Penalties of a similar kind all together, to match them!

Soorah Ibrahim (14): Aayat 15-17
And they (the Messengers) sought victory and help [from their Lord], and every obstinate, arrogant dictator (who refuses to believe in the Oneness of Allâh) was brought to a complete loss and destruction. In front of him (every obstinate, arrogant dictator) is Hell, and he will be made to drink boiling, festering (pus) water. He will sip it unwillingly, and he will find a great difficulty to swallow it down his throat, and death will come to him from every side, yet he will not die and in front of him, will be a heavy punishment.

Soorah Sad (38): Aayat 59-64
Here is a troop rushing headlong with you! No welcome for them! truly, they shall burn in the Fire! (The followers shall cry to the misleaders:) “Nay, ye (too)! No welcome for you! It is ye who have brought this upon us! So evil is (this) place to stay in! ”They will say: “Our Lord! whoever brought this upon us, Add to him a double Penalty in the Fire!” And they will say: “What is the matter with us that we see not men whom we used to count among the bad ones?” Did we take them as an object of mockery, or have (our) eyes failed to perceive them?” Verily, that is the pure truth, the mutual dispute of the People of the Fire!

Again, they will ask about those they used to rule over and torture:

(Soorah Sad: Aayat 62-64)
And they will say: “What is the matter with us that we see not men whom we used to count among the bad ones?” Did we take them as an object of mockery, or have (our) eyes failed to perceive them?” Verily, that is the pure truth, the mutual dispute (recriminations) of the People of the Fire!

Soorat Al Muzzammil (73): Aayat 12-13
Verily, with Us are fetters (to bind them), and a raging Fire (to burn them). And a food that chokes, And a Penalty Grievous.

—a Penalty that is so beyond our comprehension that Allah does not mention it, leaves it for our imaginations. It is narrated that the Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) said:
“Paradise and Hell fell into a dispute for, accommodating the haughty and proud, and Paradise said, ‘What is the matter with me that only the meek and the humble and the downtrodden and simple will find abode in me?’ Thereupon, Allah said to Paradise, ‘You are a means of My mercy. I will show mercy through you to whom I will from among My servants.’ Then He said to Hell, ‘You are a sign of My chastisement, and I will chastise through you whom I will from among My servants. Both of you will be full.’ And as regards to Hell, it will not be full until Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, places His foot over it. Then Hell will say, ‘Enough, enough, enough!’ at which point it will be full and will be compressed. Allah will not treat unjustly anyone among His creation. As for Paradise, He will create another creation to fill it.” [Muslim]

Assalamo ‘Alaikom Noble Sister Aafia,

Please forgive me for not coming to your aid and pray to Allah (swt) to make an opening for me to avenge what has happened to you. You are in a situation where your duas are likely to be answered, so I am sincerely requesting you to make dua for me.

I would also like to say that all true Muslims are proud of you. Any Muslim man would b honoured to have you as their mother, wife, daughter or sister.

You have nothing to be ashamed of. It is us so-called males who should be ashamed, because we are not being “MEN”.

Insha Allah the lions of this ummah will avenge for you as they did for the noble sister Fatimah. I hope that I am among those lions to save me from my guilt and humility.

Wassalamo ‘Alaikom,
A sinful servant of Allah

Salam aleikum sister
I hope this email reaches in your high Iman, May Allah give you much Sabr and Taqwa. Sister may Allah reward you for each and every second you have spent in the hands of kuffar and the dogs that helped them, Im writing this email on behalf of chechen and caucasian true muslims (those whose heart is filled with mercy to believers inshaAllah) that our sisters here have gone through the same thing if not worse and up to this day the Russian kuffar are still holding them. Wallahi sister forgive us broters for not doing much to help sisters like you but i can promise you one thing inshaAllah we the muslims here in Dagestan,Chechnya,Ingushetiaya,Northen Ossetiya,Kabardina Balkariay and Karachaevo Cherkesiya as well as Tatars and Russian Muslims have promised to Allah that we wont give up untill we realise all our sisters and brothers from the kuffar. In addition sister there is reason why Allah has put people into different trials and trebulations. There is difference between test of Iman and punishment of sin. As long as we keep on doing what Allah tells us to do even if that leads to great suffering then we have succeeded inshaAllah. I have no doubt sister Allah has put you through all this suffering for the test and whats awating in the life after death is much better inshaAllah if you keep firm. May Allah make you firm on this deen and May He forgive us for not doing much because my state is a state of sin. I ask you sister because your state is better than mine and Allah answers the du’a of the oppressed one that He forgives us and sets free from this state of sin and gives the mujahideen the victory over the Zalimun and the awliya of Shaitan. YA ALLAH AMIN YA ALLAH GIVE US THE OPPORTUNITY TO FREE OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS. YA ALLAH RELEASE THEM BECAUSE YOU ARE THE MOST MERCIFUL.

27. Your Sister in Islam - August 16, 2008

Dearest Sister Afia,

Assalaamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.

I’m completely speechless and I don’t know what I can say that might be worth writing. I am so ashamed that although I always felt terrible about all the injustices being inflicted all over the world, I never raised my voice against them. I’ve been crying and praying to Allah to make you steadfast and heal your wounds ever since I heard about your case.

“Do people think they will be left alone after merely saying they believe and they will not be tried”–Surah Ankabut:2

This verse has always scared me because we can never know whether or not we will come out of a trial with the same or even stronger faith than before. Dear Sister, I wish I knew what to say to you to encourage you to stay firm in your faith and love for Allah (swt), in Whom all believers place their trust. Remember that Allah has prepared for believers a reward that is unimaginable to the human mind in its wonder. “And for that let strive all who strive” (Surah Mutaffifeen)

Dear Sister, I know you have been tried in a very big trial, but take comfort in the fact that the severity of the trial you have endured shows the greatness of your strength, for Allah (swt) says that He does not burden a soul with a burden greater than it can bear. Allah created you, body and spirit, and He knows you better than yourself.

On the Day of Judgment, Allah, who is the best and fairest of all Judges, will settle all disputes and injustices amongst people. He will ask people to come forward with the wrongs done to them and He will make the wrongdoers pay for what they have done and no one will be able to hide or escape. Just imagine having the weight of all your sins taken away from you and being placed on the backs of those who wronged you. Imagine them suffering under the burden of their sins and the sins of all those they have wronged. They will be made to suffer much greater than what they did to you and other innocent people like you. And Allah’s punishment is more terrible and severe than anything any human can do. May Allah always keep us aware of this fact especially in times of trouble! Ameen.

Dear Sister, have patience and wait for that day–I know it is very easy for us to say this to you because we don’t know what you have suffered, but forgive us, dear sister and accept these words from us–for they are Allah’s words–and expect true comfort from Allah (swt)’s promises to the believers. Insha Allah, let all you have gone through be a means for you to come closer to Allah (swt).

Allah (swt) says in the Quran: “And indeed We will surely try you with something of fear and hunger and decrease in wealth and health and the fruit of your labors. But give glad tidings to the patient ones; those who, when calamity strikes them, say, ‘Indeed we belong to Allah, and indeed it is to Him that we return’. Upon them shall be the blessings of their Lord and mercy. And they are the ones who are truly guided.”

Dear Sister, in the Quran, Allah (swt) describes those who are turned away from Him by means of a trial because they don’t trust Him. They forget all the blessings they have received from Him and focus only on the hardship they have to endure. Dear Sister, remember that in the life of a believer every event serves as step that raises him nearer and nearer to his Lord. Everything that he endures with faith makes him more and more beloved to his Lord. May Allah give us all the ability to be believers of such rank. Ameen.

Dear Sister, please read the translation of Surah Ankabut, as I feel it will give you lots of peace. Allah says in it that He tries people to separate those who truly believe and will prove their faith through everything that they are put through, from those who merely say they believe but are actually lying. Oh Allah–have mercy on us and make us always among those who truly believe.

Dear Sister, it is impossible for anyone who has even a shred of humanity to not be deeply hurt by what happened to you–it is impossible to not have the utmost love and hope for you–but as Muslim brothers or sisters, our lives have been shaken and our hearts and souls are bruised by your pain because believers are as one body. Never think you are suffering alone. We are all here, we are all looking for ways we can help. May Allah help us so that we do not fail as we have failed before. Ameen.

I would like to end this letter with the words of Allah (swt) because there is nothing better.

Surah Aali Imran:190-198
“Verily, in the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the succession of night and day, there are indeed messages for all who are endowed with insight, those who remember God when they stand, and when they sit, and lying on their sides, and reflect on the creation of the heavens and the earth:

“O our Sustainer! Thou hast not created [aught of] this without meaning and purpose. Limitless art Thou in Thy glory! Keep us safe, then, from suffering through fire!

“O our Sustainer! Whomsoever Thou shalt commit to the fire, him, verily, wilt Thou have brought to disgrace and such evildoers will have none to succour them.

“O our Sustainer! Behold, we heard a voice call [us] unto faith, `Believe in your Sustainer!’ - and so we came to believe. O our Sustainer! Forgive us, then, our sins, and efface our bad deeds; and let us die the death of the truly virtuous!

“And, O our Sustainer, grant us that which Thou hast promised us through Thy apostles, and disgrace us not on Resurrection Day! Verily, Thou never failest to fulfil Thy promise!”

And thus does their Sustainer answer their prayer:

“I shall not lose sight of the labour of any of you who labours [in My way], be it man or woman: each of you is an issue of the other. Hence, as for those who forsake the domain of evil, and are driven from their homelands, and suffer hurt in My cause, and fight [for it], and are slain - I shall most certainly efface their bad deeds, and shall most certainly bring them into gardens through which running waters flow, as a reward from God: for with God is the most beauteous of rewards.”

Let it not deceive thee that those who are bent on denying the truth seem to be able to do as they please on earth: it is [but] a brief enjoyment, with hell thereafter as their goal - and how vile a resting-place! - whereas those who remain conscious of their Sustainer shall have gardens through which running waters flow, therein to abide: a ready welcome from God. And that which is with God is best for the truly virtuous.

May Allah give you the best of both worlds,
From your sister in Islam

Asalam walikum dear sister,
Don;t give up hope on the mercy of Allah s.w.t this is the way to jannah full of difficulties. Sister we will try our best to revenge for all this for whatever pain my heart is going through upon hearing and listening to all this can not be expressed in words. Know that you are not alone and we will always pray to Allah s.w.t to free you and elavate you in rank.Be rest assured that this news has reached the mujahideen across the world and these kafirs will pay dearly for what they have done.

29. Sahira - August 16, 2008

Dear Sister Aafia,

Assalamalaikum,

My heart goes out to you and your family. I have tried to think and feel what it must be like to go through all the torture, abuse and humiliation you were forced to go through in the past 5 years or more.

I think Allah has a reason for selecting you for this trial. It is not just a trial for you or your family, it is a trial for the whole Muslim Ummah and for the Pakistani Govt. I pray that the Pakistani Govt. and Muslims all step up to the plate for this occassion. Because I feel your case is really a test of Imaan and an Azmaish for us. And if we do not pass this test by giving our support in all possible ways then we will fail it and there will be no excuse for us. May Allah give us the strength to stand up for your case.

Sister Aafia I am here for you. You are in my prayers. In my thoughts. In my heart. I am so moved by your strength and utter patience. I am proud of you.

Please keep reciting the Quran and duas to give you strength and peace of mind.

May Allah be with you at each and every step. Ameen.

Your sister in faith

We are all brought to our earthly couch by the grace of Allah. We are called on to bear burdens beyond measure that strike at the very core of who we are. May you find in your spirit the faith, the courage to continue and the will to live and to believe that you are still loved, cherished and sustained by Allah.

I hope you find your way home with forgiveness, hope and faith.

My prayers are with you in your distress.

Peace be with you!

33. Fahim uz Zaman - August 17, 2008

Respectable Sister Aafia,
I am ashamed that I am writing this letter to you. I should have been there on the ground helping you in your release. I am honored that I know a person like you, who was so much steadfast in upholding the truth. I am from Karachi and I feel so embarrassed that a sister from my city is living in such a bad situation. I myself have children and I am ashamed that one of my sisters have her children taken away from her. Furthermore I feel more embarrassed that a sister who has been so brilliant suffered so much, although you should have been supported by whole Ummah. But I am pleased to know that your reward is only with Allah and you will be rewarded for all your sufferings in this world in the world hereafter. Verily all the praise and power is for Allah.

Wassalam,
Fahim

Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu

When I begin to imagine the ordeal you have been through, my soul starts to quiver and I feel as if I am about to lose my senses … but of course we cannot even begin imagine the pain and suffering, only Allah can recompense you and Insha’Allah you will be in Jannatul-Firdaus among the best of company. Allahumma, Ameen

Ya Allah! There is no good in us and our lives are not worth living if we are managing to sleep while our sisters suffer in prisons. Ya Allah! Remove the wahn from our hearts! Guide us and forgive us, otherwise we will be losers in the Hereafter.

Dear Sister, we have let you down as an Ummah. There are no excuses. I am ashamed, guilty… Please pray for us and pray that Allah will give us the Ghairah that leads to action and not only words.

Sister Aafia, insha’Allah you recieve this message in good health. May Allah bless you and have mercy on you and your family. We have been so worried about you, and we are watching your story. Insha’Allah we are with you, and most importantly Allah is with you.

I would like to give you good news that many people are returning to their faith in Islam. Alhamdullillah. We are praying and learning and teaching our kids.

It is heartbreaking to wonder about what has happened to your children, I can’t imagine what you’re going through. May Allah release and relieve you and your children. May Allah bring you the justice you deserve, and may he expose His enemy to all mankind.

My prayers are with you, and may Allah azza wa jall protect you from harm.

Ps. I will insert this hadith for you to read, I learned this dua’ and I pray it regularly.

Mu’ath Bin Jabal, Ibn ‘Abbas, ‘Ubaydah Bin al-Jarrah, and others (RAA) reported that the Prophet (ASWS) was once so late in coming out to lead the morning prayer that the sun was about to rise. He came out of his home hurriedly, led the people in a (relatively) short prayer, and then turned toward them and said:

Mu’ath Bin Jabal, Ibn ‘Abbas, ‘Ubaydah Bin al-Jarrah, and others (RAA) reported that the Prophet (ASWS) was once so late in coming out to lead the morning prayer that the sun was about to rise. He came out of his home hurriedly, led the people in a (relatively) short prayer, and then turned toward them and said:

“Stay in your places, for I will tell you what delayed me this morning: I got up during the night and prayed for as long as was decreed for me. Then I became so sleepy while praying that I found it hard to continue (so I slept). I then saw (in a dream) my Lord (AWJ) in the best form.

He asked me, “O Muhammad, about what does the most supreme society (i.e., the angels) argue?” I said, “I do not know, my Lord.” He asked me (again), “O Muhammad, about what does the most supreme society argue?” I said, “I do not know, my Lord.” He asked me (a third time), “O Muhammad, about what does the most supreme society argue?” I said, “I do not know, my Lord.” Then He placed His palm (on my back) between my shoulder-blades, and I felt the coolness of His fingers inside my chest. Everything then became clear to me, and I knew (the answer).
He asked me, “O Muhammad, about what does the most supreme society argue?” I replied, “(They argue about) the expiating acts and (the acts that elevate) the ranks (of the believers in Jannah).”
He asked, “What are the expiating acts?” I replied, “(They are) walking (once and again) to the jama’ah prayers, sitting in the place of prayer (saying thikr) after prayers, waiting (with anticipation) for the (next) prayer after the (previous) prayer, and performing complete wudu’ (even in) disliked conditions.”
He asked, “What are the (acts that elevate in) ranks?” I replied, “(They are:) feeding food (to the needy), spreading (the greeting of) salam, speaking kindly (to others), and praying at night while people are asleep.” Then He commanded me, “Ask (from me),
“Allahumma inni as’aluka fi’l-al-khayrat, wa-tark-al-munkarat, wa-hubb-al-masakin, wa-an-taghfira li wa-tarhamani. Wa-itha aradta fitnatan fi qawmin, fa-tawaffani ghayra maftun. Wa-as’aluka hubbaka, wahubba man yuhibbuka, wahubba ‘amalin yuquarribuni ila hubbik—O Allah, I ask you (to guide me to) doing good deeds, avoiding evil deeds, and loving the needy. And ( I ask you) to forgive me and show me mercy. And when You will to afflict some people (around me) with a (destructive) tribulation, take my life without being changed (in faith). And I beseech You (to grant me) the love of You, of those who love You, and of all deeds that can bring me nearer to Your love.”

In the trend of failing promises
We lost our names and verses
We turned to the hypocritic fences
We got our honour in ashes

Oh dear! You tired your best admist this
Oh dear! You retained the light of peace
Struggling and helping the oppressed
Trying your utmost to join the blessed

The enemy hates the light of truth
Which you maintained right from youth
They seeked to hack your expensive stock
While we watched and didnt talk

Forgiveness, we have failed you indeed
We have dropped the banner of muslim creed
Your body cries and yells for health
InshaAllah for you, is abundant wealth
You barely rise just to stand
InshaAllah tomorrow, yours is endless land

We failed you dear, while you didnt fail
Jail is bad, but you will sail
Allah with you, you will never fail
Keep the trust and patience pail
Eventhough you have gotten frail

We have realised, the truth so late
Rejoice, you lay in Prophets’ gate
I feel ashamed, and drowned in hate
For our failure to a faithful mate

May Allah free you, and grant you bliss
May Allah restore your bliss, like Yaaqub’s keys
May Allah grant you Jannah, patience and peace
May He raise your rank for suffering this

I feel your pain and your blood flow
I sympathize knowing it’s a worthless crow
We failed a lady and made her low
May Allah restore our imaan’s glow

Smile sister! This world is a testing ground
Smile sister! Jannah’s pleasures have no bound
Smile sister! You will join Martyr Sumayyah
Smile sister! You shunned modern Jahiliyyah

Insha ALLAH! All will be well
Many have raised your case; a ringing bell

Assalamualaikum warahmtullahi wabarakatu
Doctor Aafiyah Siddiqui

I hope that you are in the harmony of Almighty Allah, that your heart is full with the beauty of taqwa and and the comfort of imaan.

A branch of olive tree
A whisper of being free
A true belief, that yearns to see
A hope and cry, to just be me

The world dribbles in the mist
It blurs through this malevolent fist
A crack of hope, a fall of wrist
Swallowed, gobbled, my bliss

A sprinkling of exuberant star
Does carry my heart afar
It brings me light in this hole
This is my world, as dark as coal

I walked through the illusion of my land
I treaded my feet through golden sand
I imagined that I held my child’s hand
I believed, and that was my magic wand

All the scars, and tears, and wounds
I am a beliver, and to Allah I am bound
All the taunts, and jeers, and lies
I am a believer, and my eyes behold the skies

I ask you to forgive me please, and this unworthy world.
Your hereafter by the Will of the Almighty, is beautiful for you.
We inshallah, the Ummah of the Prophet (peace be upon him) are weeping for you in our prayers, please pray for us, and for our salvation inshallah.

Asalamualaikum wa rahmatullah beloved sister in Islam

InshAllah u are in the best of health and highest level of Imaan

First and Foremost an apology on behalf of me and this ummah! we have taken the pleasures of this duniya more seriously than the duty we have towards our brothers and sisters in Islam! Please forgive us for not coming to your aid ! InshAllah Allah will ease the path for the Mujahideen to free u from ur captors and also give the ways and means to each and every one of us to help out all the oppressed in our Ummah AMEEENN YA RABB!

SubhanAllah ur story touched my heart, such strength and courage reminds me of Sumaya (RA) the first martyr of Islam (InshAllah) she stood firm in her faith! Ya ukhti never let the persecutors turn u away from the light of Islam ! Victory is near inshAllah ! Like Allah swt says in the Quran “With every hardship goes ease” (Surah 94 verse 6)

Narrated ‘Aisha: (the wife of the Prophet) Allah’s Apostle (SAW) said, “No calamity befalls a Muslim but that Allah expiates some of his sins because of it, even though it were the prick he receives from a thorn.” bukhari 544
Remember Allah in times of ease, and He will remember you in times of distress. What hit you could not have missed you, what missed you could not have hit you. Remember that victory comes with patience, relief comes with affliction and ease comes with hardship inshAllah!

Hope this words will comfort you , they dnt make up for anything that you have been through but your reward for that is with Allah INSHALLAH!

Hope to meet u in this Duniya if Allah wills if not then May We be united in Jannah! Ameen!

InshAllah Will always remember u and the rest of the ummah in my duas and inshAllah u will do the same!

Love You for the Sake of Allah The Most High !

Your Sister in Islam!

51. Fatimah - August 19, 2008

assalamu alaykum wr wb

All i will say is this..

as-Sabr mithla ismuhu, Murru Madhaqatuhu wa laakin ‘Awaaqibuhu aHlaa min al-’asl

‘Sabr is as it name (its literal meaning is to imprison -as when exercising patience it is as though you are imprisoning your soul); its taste is bitter yet its result is sweeter than honey’

My Sweet Sister in Islam..know the result of your Sabr will be that Jannah wherein there will be no worry nor pain,fear or despair.

That Jannah wherein the bricks are of gold and silver…the ground therein of musk and saffron..

Know that the passing of this world is as a blink of an eye and the Aakhera is forever..

Rememeber that what you are going through..the Sahabas and the Prophets also went through. Find solace in that Allaah tested his beloveds in a similar fashion…

Remember Ibn Taymiyyah r.h’s words when he said there is a Jannah in this Dunya he who does not enter it will not enter the Jannah in the Aakhera..

Seek this Jannah whilst being tested…seek that tranquility in your heart..see this test as a means of drawing closer to Allaah…Sabr..Shukr..Istighfar…Yaqeen & tawakkul. Boost yourself with such pearls…detox yourself from fear and despair; you’re not alone - remember you have precious eemaan and Allaah is with you..

Understand the Ayah (wa ufawwidhu amree ilaa Allaah; Inna Allaaha baseerun bil Ibaad) I entrust my affairs unto Allah; Verily, Allah is well Aware of His Servants in its true form..engrain it in your heart..

And remember - Allaah is the most just.

I had never heard of you before but after reading an article about you I felt compelled to write…the least a sinning servant could do is to attempt to strengthen her fellow sister..

i’m a Hafidha and trying to study deen but wallah I say the truth - you have surpassed us all…

Forgive us.

May Allaah strengthen you and keep you steadfast Aameen.
As’alu Allaah rifaaquki fil Jannah
I ask Allaah for your company in Jannah -Ameen

- Your sister in Islam

53. Saif - August 19, 2008

My sister in Islam,

May Allah (swt) grant you al firdaws and raise from your children the likes of Khalid Bin Waleed. You are in this state because the muslim men have failed you. Pray for us our dear sister that Allah (swt) raises amongst us the likes of Umar Bin Khattab who would never let an injustice go unpunished.

Pray, my dear sister, that Allah (swt) torments your captors with an agonizing pain, and a wretched, pain filled death that pleases the eyes and hearts of the believers. Pray my dear sister that Allah (swt) brings this wretched pain into the lands of the disbelievers and munafiqueen. Pray, my dear sister, that their deaths are so agonizing that even we are shaken in awe of the punishment of Allah.

Allahuma Ameen

54. Mht - August 19, 2008

As-Salaamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuhu

Dear sister,

Remember that - ” Verily with the hardship, there is relief and verily with the hardship, there is relief. ” (Ash-Sharh:6)

” So do not become weak (against your enemies), nor be sad, and you will be superior (in victory) if you are indeed (true) believers.” (Al-Imran: 139)

“And what is wrong with you that you fight not in the Cause of Allah, and for those weak,ill-treated and oppressed among men,women and children,whose cry is: Our Lord! Rescue us from this town whose people are oppresses;and raise for us from You one who will protect and raise for us from You one who will help.” (An-Nisa:75)

” They intend to put out the light of Allah (i.e. religion islam,this Quran,Prophet Muhammad SAW) with their mouths.But Allah will complete His light even though the disbelievers hate (it).” (As-Saff:8)

“…He said: “My Lord! Give me victory over the people who are Mufsidun (those who commit great crimes and sins,oppressors, tyrants,mischief-makers,corrupts)” ” (Al-Ankabut:30)

” (It) is a Promise of Allah (i.e. Allah will give voctory…), and Allah fails not in His Promise, but most of men know not.” (Ar-Rum:6)

Let’s be amongst those whom Allah has Promised Victory -
Ta’eefatul Mansoorah…

55. Bint Abbas - August 19, 2008

asalaam alaikum warahmatullahi wa barakatuh,

I ask Allah ta’ala to ease your pain, to remove your worry and to heal your wounds.
May Allah reunite you with your family, and keep you firm during this difficult time, for indeed after hardship comes ease, after hardship comes ease.

Allah tests those whom He loves, so please remain patient with this trial. Those who were the tested the most were the Prophets than those who were most like them, inshaAllah there is a great reward awaiting you
Please remember that this dunya is very short and the akirah is the true life, Paradise is a place where there will be no sorrow or distress.
Know that Allah is not unaware of your situation He is very close to you and is watching, He is aware of what you are feeling and what you have been through, so turn to Him and cry to Him, He will answer your du’a.

I ask Allah ta’ala to make you firm, to aid you in every way, and to destroy those who hurt you and who oppress the Muslims. Aameen.

Please forgive us sister, we didnt do enough for you.

Narrated Anas ibn Malik: Allahs Messenger said, “…And then that person from amongst the persons of the world be brought who had led the most miserable life (in the world) from amongst the inmates of Paradise and he would be made to dip once in Paradise and it would be said to him: O, son of Adam, did you face any hardship? Or had any distress fallen to your lot? And he would say: By Allah, no, O my Lord, never did I face any hardship or experience any distress.”

Assalamualaikum Warrahmatullahi Wabarakahtuh, sister Aafiyah,

Most importantly you are a beloved servant and a mujahida of Allah ‘Azzawajal, a strong ummah of Rasullullah ( Sallallahu ‘Alayhiwassalam) and then a beloved sister of all of us. Allah has extremely loved you for He is preserving a better life in the hereafter for you. As Rasulullah (Sallallahu ‘Alayhiwassalam) has said- For a believer this world will be like a prison but for an unbeliever this world will be like a paradise. Subhan-Allah you are a true believer. It’s a shame on our part for we are not doing anything, but sister one thing I do assure you, we will always remember you in our dua’ for everything is in control of Allah ‘Azzawajal.

70. AMA - August 21, 2008

Assalaamu ‘Alaikum dear sister,

There are no words on this occassion to express the intense honour and affection the Muslimeen must have for such a beautiful example of a true and patient Mu’mina as yourself. Regretably, there are also not sufficient words to express the dissapointment and dejection we look at our own selves with because it was only through our weakness of Iman and taa’a in Allaah (swt) that such unbefitting things can ever touch someone who bears witness to the truth of Ash-Shahaadatayn.

Then again, it also becomes clear that only when someone joins a love to accept Allaah’s blessings with shukr and a love to accept Allaah’s tests and trials with Sabr that there is nothing left for them but the Mercy and Pleasure of Allaah in both Ad-Dunya and Al-Aakhira. In other words, those who love to suffer for the sake of Allaah enjoy a great and unique blessing:

And there is the type of man who gives his life to earn the pleasure
of Allah. And Allah is full of kindness to (His) devotees. (207. 2)

Assuredly, you have tasted of this sweetness of Imaan throughout your trials as is the Sunnah of Allaah when His Auliya are put to trial:

They said, “Burn him and protect your gods, If ye do (anything at all)!” We said, “O Fire! be thou cool, and (a means of) safety for Abraham!” Then they sought a stratagem against him: but We made them the ones that lost most! (68-70. 21)

In this same way, the followers of the Millah of Ibrahim (AS) throughout the ages have been assaulted but each time the plots of Shaytaan and his Auliyaa have fallen through only to reveal the shining face of Iman to those who detest it!

Their intention is to extinguish Allah’s Light (by blowing) with their
mouths: But Allah will complete (the revelation of) His Light, even
though the Unbelievers may detest (it). (8. 61)

So we see history repeating itself and in truth we envy you! Because
we understand that it is you, instead of us, that Allah (swt) has
chosen to establish His Deen on this earth and raise His Kalima, and
humiliate the enemies of Allaah. So you make du’aa for us! Surely, the
du’a of the Madhluum has no hijaab between it and Allaah! And how can we make du’a for you when our rizq is haraam, our actions are haraam, our hearts have hardened, and we are content living with those who wrong themselves!

Indeed, you are fine sister, it is us who are being put to fitnah, and you…not us…you are the one who truly deserves to relax, feel comfort, and wait for the Mercy of Allaah:

Those who believed and those who suffered exile and fought (and
strove and struggled) in the path of Allah,- it is they that have
the hope of the Mercy of Allah. And Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most
Merciful. (218. 2)

And with all that be assured that there are those who have not lost the way, neither have they wavered or changed their commitment in the least. So we see the warriors of Islam growing in strength each day and kufr being undermined with the most daring of stands, and the most brave of charges, and the most inspiring of shouts. And we see the Muraabit and the Mujaahid stationed in the path of Allaah and soaring to the front lines; smeared with the dust that makes the Fire haraam.

So take comfort, oh sister, in the fact that when the path to
Jihaad fi Sabilillaah shines forth…we are those who will rush forth,
and when the enemy comes in sight…we are not those who will turn
our backs, and when the horizon of Shahaada visualises…we are those whose souls will fly up…never blinking…all for the Pleasure of
Allaah and the Honour of Him, His Deen, and His True Slaves…like you, my sister.

Woe be upon me if these are words of nifaaq; but actions speak louder than words, again, actions speak louder than words. And let these be the words that strike fear in the dark heart of every Mukadhibbun, kaffaar.

Never again; simply, never again.

So good news to you! Yes, Good news to you, oh Maryam of this millenium, oh Aasiya of these ages, oh follower of Fatima, Oh sister of Sumaya, oh daughter of Muhammad, oh jewel of the martyrs!

Please, wipe the tears from your face, forgive us, invoke the Curse of Allaah upon the people of the Fire and those who conceal fom the people what Allaah has revealed in His Book, let all pain wash away from your heart, make sajda to your creator and make the du’a Allaah preserved…for the likes of you…in His Final Book:

Behold she said: “O my Lord! Build for me, in nearness to Thee, a
mansion in the Garden, and save me from Pharaoh and his doings, and save me from those that do wrong” (11. 66)

Your Beloved Brother in Islam,
AMA

Dear sister in islam

My message to you and all yhose whe are oppressed by the enemies of Allah His Deen Al Islam and Muslims
May Allah guide you or just destroy you Aameen
May Allah make us like Abu Bakr, Omar, Usman, Ali, Hamza, Khalid bin Waleed Ali radiAllah o ta’la unhuma and the other lions of Allah who have the guts to teach these enemies of Allah a lession they will never forget
In my every salaah i make dua to Allah for their destruction.
if there are people who think that peace will prevail with these people, then they donot have iman in the word of Allah and the sunnah of Allah’s Messanger saww
its time to open our eyes and follow the path of Islam and stop acting that all is well and ok
Its not
are we waiting when the fight comes to our doors
are we waiting for the day when our personal mother who gave birth to is or our sister or wife or aunt is raped or kidnapped or our children are murdered or we are killed is that day when we will wake up.
or should we just be at least man enough to admit that we actually are not men and are WOMEN
but we cant even say that cause among us are women like sister Aafia who are there inspite of all that she has gone through still fighting every second of her life putting our so called men of the ummah to SHAME
but even shame has departed from us.
we donot even have shame.
I want to know then what do we have ….?
O Allah what are we
SubhanAllah

I hope we can ask ourselves these questions and can find answers
I hope we do before its too late.

asalamu alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakatu sister Aafia,

may Allah send his peace and blessings upon you and give you the highest place in jannah next to the most pious of woman in islam.

stay strong for verily the believer will be tested in this life, and one should condition ones heart on tests and endurance and patience.

just remember the story of the woman and child, when the woman was afraid to jump in the ditch and the child spoke, for you are that woman and we are that child speaking to you, praying and making dua for you to stay strong, for verily there can only be one end, which is Jannatul firdaws inshallah.

forgive me and all the others who cannot do nothing to ease your situation.

stay strong and protect and defend islam from your side, fear Allah always and he will make a way out of every single situation tho u percieve not.

hold on to the rope of Allah with your molar tooth and dont let go, know that whatever you suffer in this life is nothing compared to the reward you will get in the hereafter.

i pray that Allah hasten your release and all the other muslim prisoners.

I pray Allah brings back the islamic state sooner rather than later, and i pray Allah wakes up this ummah from its sleep.

Assalamualaikum wrt. wbt.

Astaqfirullah Al-Azeem for my sins and for all Ummah’s sins from your situation.

Ya Uktee, Wallahi…
your situation makes my heart cries
for your pain in this world
and for my pain in next world as I fell to protect you, my sister in my Deen.
(May Allah forgive me for this big sin & May you forgive me too)

Ya Uktee Ya Hababatee, Belive me..
All your Ikwah pain with you, cry with you and be with you
all deeds they hurt you will be get back
for them,the dirty Kafiroon…we have no word but sword!

May Allah bless you and your family,
protect you from the tyrants,
give you Sabr and Quwah
and give me & all all Ummah to do something for you more than writing these messages.

O Allah who see all thing, hear all sound and count all deeds
Please hurt who hurt your belived servants
and destroy them with the woeful Azab in both Dunya and Akirah.
and kill them by the hands of our mujahidden brothers, our honoured knights

Please give their heads to the mujahideen’s swords
& their breasts to the mujahideen’s gunshots
& thire bodies to the mujahideen’s booms
Ameen Ya rab Al-Alameen!!!

77. Abu Sabaya - August 21, 2008

I ask Allah to reward all who have written messages so far, and I hope that those who have not yet written will do so .

I would like to suggest two things when writing:

1) Focus on being positive in your writing. Although the sister certainly needs people to empathize with her hardships, the letters that she will enjoy most are those that uplift her spirits and make her feel good rather than simply remind her of her misery.

2) Realize that every word that is sent to Aafia is read, copied, and stored by prison administration! References to the Mujahidin, swords, bullets, the blood of the kuffar, explosions, etc. will not exactly help Aafia or her case. Please realize the gravity of her situation - she is in federal custody! This is not a joke! Such letters probably won’t even make it to her anyway!

So, please: be positive and be wise.

I ask Allah to free our sister, relieve her distress, and return her to us in a better state than she left us…say ‘amin.’

American Justice, kill, rape, torture, imprison, do what ever they want and hide under the name of democracy. Muslims defend their families, land, and honor - they are terrorists! If so, i am proud of the terrorists and i am proud to be one.

ALLAH (SWT) says : “”Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike TERROR into (the hearts of) the enemies, of God and your enemies.”

80. admin - August 22, 2008

to my beloved sister Afia:

Allah is with you, dont worry about that. I have a poem for you, I took this from youtube. It is written by Abu Muhammad Al Maqdisi:

THE PRISONS COME PERFUMED:

Dear brothers and sisters who dwell in these prisons..

To you I write with distresses..

If to ALLAH you hold fast,

Then what harm will a misfortune do to you?

Beware dear brother

Of making you corrupting your thoughts,

Regarding the promise of the Deity, Mighty and Strong…

Verily He has promised the believers with salvation..

As He saved Yunus

From the dark depths of the belly of the fish

Dear Brother,

Before you passed the ancient ones..

These prisons are but like those prisons,

Did not Yusuf dwell in there for a phase??

And Musa,

The Tyrants threatened him with it and such was the Messenger

Of the Generous Deity to imprison him..

…..The Pagans plotted so my Lord saved him through his hijrah in the company

Of that trustworthy friend..

And in their footsteps…

The believers traversed..

Like Ahmad, that firm Imam,

And likewise Ibn Taimiyah was blessed with it

In the fortress of Sham, as prisoner he dwelled.

Hundreds of thousands of the true faithful dwelled for a time in these prisons.

Be not weak, dear brother..

Nor lose hope, when your time comes nor submit

Strengthen yourself by remembering the Deity, Most Supreme

And hasten in memorizing the Manifest Book.

That is for your heart a secure stronghold and

This is for your spirit an assisting provision.

These are hardships soon they will all cease and remaining form it will be various

Fruits of benefits, so if they intimidate you and they threaten you

Never weaken nor soften to them

And even if they insult you and they torture you and if

They beat you, submit not

You are not the first to be tortured for a mighty religion and a Manifest Legislation

Nor are you alone on this path for there are countless caravans throughout the years and if an Eid passes by

and a son is born and months rotate, while you are imprisoned, do not

Grieve O brother of the Righteous Ones

Of departing from family and losing children

And if they forbid you from their visits and likewise, their letters never appear,

So if this is for a Lord and Religion, then where is the patience, where is the

Certainty and where are your past speeches regarding the (height of the) Millah of That Trustworthy Messenger?

That intimate friend went willingly to slaughter his son, a clear trial on a magnificent, noble day like today without any anxiety, he put him down upon his forehead.

So my Lord saved him through His Good Will and ransomed

him with a fat sheep, but you..

Your sons are in a carefree life and diversion and

amusement and a secured home

Yet you have not been asked to slaughter them,

Rather merely for patience of a temporary separation for verily, they are in the care of a Merciful Lord and your are in solitude with Him and Faith..

For the pleasure of a Lord and assisting a religion,

Life and all children become insignificant..

For the pleasure of a Lord, the Mighty and Generous,

The Prisons come perfumed and the bitter come sweet

For the Pleasure of My Lord

The Prisons Come Perfumed

Salam alikum warahmatullah wa barakatuhu

I hope and pray that you get released soon and that you get the best of the rewards in this world and next for your sabr, for all the pain and torment that you had to bear. Sister please know that millions of Muslims are praying for you and are trying to find ways to support you. Remember that Allah is close he is with you every second every moment of your life. He was watching you when you go through these troubles he sees your sabr and by Allah I swear your place in the heaven is guaranteed. Have firm faith in that. Allah tests his beloved so that he can raise their status. Have faith in that. I pray to Allah that he ends this test of yours and gets you released at the soonest so that you can rejoin your family your mother your sister and your three children. Keep praying and stay connected to Allah do not lose hope do not lose faith in him for he is watching and rewarding your for every second you spend in this pain.

I have strong hope and millions of us are praying that you get released at the earliest. Atleast now the Americans are forced to surface you and formally accepted to the world that you are in their custody this gives me hope that inshallah with all the efforts and prayers for your release inshallah your ordeal will be over soon and you will home with your family (Ameen)

Wassalam

SALAAM ALAYKUM, SISTER AAFIA. FROM THE LITTLE ROOM YOU SIT IN, AND FOR THE MANY MONTHS YOU’VE BEEN IN THE CONFINEMENT OF THE UNBELIEVERS, YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MANY OF OUR MUSLIM UMMA ARE PRAYING FOR YOU! THEY PRAY FOR YOUR HEALTH, STRENGTH, AND RELEASE. THEY PRAY FOR YOUR ATTORNEY TO BE A FAIR AND JUST MAN. THEY PRAY FOR ALL MISUNDERSTANDINGS TO BE GONE. THEY PRAY THAT THE SEVERITY YOU’RE GOING THROUGH WILL BE SEEN BY AN UNBELIEVER AS A GOOD SIGN FOR ISLAM - THEY WILL REVERT BECAUSE OF YOU AND HOW YOU HANDLE THIS SITUATION THE DEVIL HAS PLACED BEFORE YOU.

IF ANY OF THESE MESSAGES GET TO YOU, PLEASE KNOW THAT THESE ARE ONLY 1/100 OF THE PRAYERS AND DUAAS THAT OUR UMMA OFFERS UP FOR YOU - AND OTHER SISTERS IN YOUR SIMILAR SITUATION. SO MANY FORUMS POST YOUR SITUATION. YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

NO MATTER HOW MANY OF OUR UMMA PROTESTS FOR YOU, SCREAMS FOR YOUR RELEASE, WRITE LETTERS ON YOUR BEHALF, WE KNOW THAT ALLAH S.W.T. KNEW THIS SITUATION LONG BEFORE WE DID AND YOU DID. HE KNOWS WHAT’S BEST FOR US, WHICH IS EASIER FOR ME TO SAY THAN TO BELIEVE BECAUSE I AM NOT IN YOUR SITUATION. BUT WE ARE ALL PRAYING FOR YOU TO BE STRONG AND FOR THESE MERE MESSAGES IMPACT YOU IN SOME EVEN SMALL POSITIVE WAY. SALAAM ALAYKUM.

Asalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu my most beloved sister Afia Siddique

I don’t know even how to begin. I heard about a Pakistan sister who was in Bagram, with a prisoner number 650- there was a conference in Pakistan. In my heart, I kept hoping it wasn’t true, hoping that maybe it was just a rumour. But then, someone made the connection the prisoner in Bagram was our sister who had been missing with her three children- Dr. Afia Siddiqui.

When someone put a face on a prisoner 650- that was unbearable. Sister, I cant begin to tell you about my grief…..For days I wasn’t able to get up from bed or go to sleep properly thinking about the situation my beloved sister might be in. And then…..Ya Rab…

It was confirmed. Our duas were accepted and Allah exposed the disbelievers’ plot against you. I would’ve never thought that truth about you would’ve ever surfaced. I thought that for five years we were silent about our sister and now Allah inspired us to think about you and subhanAllah right then He reveals the truth about you. Sister you can’t imagine the love I have for you in my heart…to the point I didn’t understand, how I can feel so much pain and love for a sister that I don’t even know…and someone told me ‘ This is from Allah, Allah is the One who has put this love in your heart for her’

Habibti, Allah works in wondrous ways….You may not see it, but in every believer’s heart He has instilled so much love for you….And this reminded of the hadith of our beloved prophet:

Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, “If Allah loves a slave, he says to Jibril, ‘I love so-and-so, so love him,’ so Jibril loves him and then calls out to the people of heaven, ‘Allah loves so-and-so, so love him,’ and the people of heaven love him, and then acceptance is placed in the Earth for him.”

InshAllah my sister you are loved by Allah and His believers. What words of comfort can I possibly say to you when my heart is filled with guilt for not doing enough to ease your pain? I’m sure like many, I will ask your forgiveness for not being there to hold you hand and help you through this…But sister you have exceeded us all…You have woken our dead hearts.. As the write Mustapha Sadiq Ar-Rafei wrote, “When I looked into history I found a small number of individuals whose lives mirrored the lifecycle of a grain of wheat. They were torn from their roots, then crushed, then ground in mills, then kneaded with fists, then rolled out and baked in ovens at high temperatures… just so they could provide food for others.”

Allah says in Surah Ra’ad:
And those who remain patient, seeking their Lord’s Countenance, perform As-Salat and spend out of that which We have bestowed on them, secretly and openly, and defend evil with good, for such there is a good end;
‘Adn , Paradise (everlasting Gardens), which they shall enter and (also) those who acted righteously from among their fathers, and their wives, and their offspring. And angels shall enter unto them from every gate (saying):
“Salamun ‘Alaikum (peace be upon you) for that you persevered in patience! Excellent indeed is the final home!”

My most beloved sister, your pain and your hardship has not gone to waste. When you decided to walk the path to Your lord, Allah put thorns and hot coals on them to see if you would continue to walk towards Him, and ya ukhtee, it seems that you did not swerve away from the path and rather become more firm in it..May Allah continue to shower His blessings on you and give your strength to bear His trials Ameen!!

And I really believe the time that our beloved Prophet mentioned has come:

But when you see niggardliness being obeyed, passion being followed, worldly interests being preferred, everyone being charmed with his opinion, then care for yourself, and leave alone what people in general are doing; for ahead of you are days which will require endurance, in which showing endurance will be like grasping live coals. The one who acts rightly during that period will have the reward of fifty men who act as he does.

Another version has: He said (The hearers asked:) Apostle of Allah, the reward of fifty of them?

He replied: The reward of fifty of you.

The reward equal to the fifty of the sahabah! Ya ukhtee, such a great reward and station. I ask Allah to give you such a reward Ameen…Allah raised you in ranks ya ukhtee, He did not abandon you, rather He chose you and turned to you in Mercy and gave you trials so your rank in Jannah is higher just like He tested His most beloved servant RasulAllah sallahu alayhi wasallam….

I can’t imagine or even begin to think about your children….I just make dua in the last third night of the night, that Allah reunites you with them…but know my ukhtee, that even if you don’t see them in this world, inshAllah you will be joined with them in Jannah…they will never cease to exist…When you will be reclining in your throne beside your children, when you will see them with their faces bright and their smiles wide…you will forget your hardship in this dunya, your parting from them is temporary, you were going to leave them one way or another for death parts us all…but because of the trials that hit you and your children, your station and their station has been raised….sometimes ya ukhtee, I envied you, I would ask myself what was in your heart that was so great that Allah tested you so severly? What great deeds did you commit to earn such a high station? I would love to know you just so I can learn what I need to do to please Allah and be among His chosen slaves

The first to enter through the gates of Jannah, will be our Prophet Muhammad sallahu alayhi wasallam. And the ones after him will be the ones who suffered severe hardship in this world….Ya ukhtee, inshAllah you might actually be among the group to enter after the Prophet!

These! For them will be ‘Adn Paradise (everlasting Gardens); wherein rivers flow underneath them, therein they will be adorned with bracelets of gold, and they will wear green garments of fine and thick silk. They will recline therein on raised thrones. How good is the reward, and what an excellent Murtafaqa (dwelling, resting place, etc.)!

I don’t know if this letter will reach you or not. But I hope that if it does, it comforts you somewhat though nothing can comfort your heart as much as Quran can. The Quran is your only companion in this world.

I leave you with this ayah and remind you to continue holding on the rope of Allah. He will never abandon His believers. Do not despair of His Mercy and continue to hope and keep your trust in the One who has created you and to Him we shall all return.

“And He will provide him from (sources) he never could imagine. And whosoever puts his trust in Allah, then He will suffice him. Verily, Allah will accomplish his purpose. Indeed Allah has set a measure for all things.”

If Allah bring you to it, He will bring you through it
I will continue to make dua for you and your children inshAllah
I hope to meet you in this world, but if not, I hope I meet in Jannah inshAllah
You will never be forgotten, Your sister in Islam

Assalam aleykoum sister,

You are in my thoughts and my prayers. I pray Allah to reunite you with your family and loved ones. I pray Allah to give you victory and to bring down shame on all the enemies of Islam. I just wish I could do something to help you other than writing this words and praying; but ALLAH HAS ALL POWERS and he knows what he is planning. Inch Allah, you will soon be free. May Allah protect your children and yourself, ameen. Your sister in Islam.

91. Muslimah - August 27, 2008

Assalamo Aliekum dearest sister in Islam,

There isn’t a day that passes by that I do not think of your condition. You have been through a LOT, and inshaALLAH, ALLAH will reward you a LOT. None of us can imagine the tests that you have been through. It’s amazing that you have held steady, you still have istiqaamah. May ALLAH protect you, and your children, and all others who are being hurt by the kuffar Ameen, and grant everyone freedom from oppression Ameen. Whenever I think of you, you remind me of the Pharaoh’s wife Hadrat Aasiya a.s. and what she went through when she became Muslim. At the climax of her torture, she recited a dua’ which is forever engraved in the Quraan: Surah Mujadilah. You remind me of the Pharaoh’s servant, whose children were burned in front of her in hot oil, and than she was burned in it as well, all for just being a Muslim. ALLAH swt granted those women highest status in Jannah. Hadrat Aasiya a.s. was granted the closest dwelling to ALLAH swt in Jannah, and the servant’s grave smelled of such great fragrance that when Prophet SAW was going on journey of Mairaaj he smelled the fragrance from the skies. Those women remained steadfast, and you have too. They were rewarded by ALLAH, and you will be too. Keep your faith in ALLAH. I will always remember you in my prayers. Your sister in Islam.
