May ALLAH make these efforts beneficial for all.

The message:
"In the name of ALLAH, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate. All praise is due to ALLAH, the LORD of all worlds. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, His family, His companions, and all who follow them in goodness until the Day of Judgment.

Peace be upon you, dear teacher and respected Abu Saif.

I pray that ALLAH protects you, grants you honor, blesses your work, fulfills your hopes, and shields you from the eyes of those who intend harm. You have taken a courageous stand against systems that betray, and your role in this struggle is, without a doubt, greater than many on the military front lines.

By ALLAH’s grace, I had the opportunity to read your book, The Summary of the Story of Palestine and Zionism: From the Roots of Zionism to the Flood of Al-Aqsa, and recently, some brothers and I gathered to discuss its main ideas in a group setting. Here, I want to share my impressions of the book, along with a few minor notes.

Overall, this book feels like a true blessing from ALLAH to you, and we in Palestine are among those who can benefit most from it. Many of us here may overlook the need to study the history of our land, thinking we already understand it because we are part of the events and scenes unfolding. Yet, we sometimes miss the importance of knowing the contexts that have shaped our current circumstances. This is a perspective that, I believe, ALLAH has granted you clarity on, as conveyed in your book.

There were many topics I knew only as separate events, without noticing the thread that connects them. Reading the book filled me with joy for the way events are seamlessly woven together, despite the tragic nature of the content.

Certain details opened my eyes to the depth of betrayal and the extent of deception at play. Particularly shocking was seeing how systems have absorbed and redirected Islamic, Arab, and Palestinian anger, turning efforts that appear supportive on the surface into hidden sources of harm.

One of the book’s great strengths lies in how it establishes essential intellectual concepts alongside recounting events. This method has a far greater impact than if the two were treated separately. The lessons at the end of the book are also incredibly valuable. Had they been detached from the historical accounts, they would not carry the same depth. However, by placing them within the context of these events, they gain even greater impact and power."

People continue to witness remarkable events that reinforce their belief that ALLAH has chosen the people of Sham (Greater Syria) and the surrounding areas of Al-Quds (Jerusalem) for a special purpose. As the Prophet ﷺ said, “HE selects from HIS creation HIS chosen ones.”

I recently received a message—a true honor—from dear friends in Gaza, expressing their appreciation for my book, The Summary of the Story of Palestine and Zionism.

What moved me even more was learning that some of them had gathered to study the book together, in a tent!

It’s truly astonishing how people in Gaza, despite the many hardships they face, not only find the time to read but also gather to study a book and exchange insights about it. It’s a wonderful testament to their resilience and commitment.

May Allah reward the people of Gaza with the best, on behalf of myself and all Muslims. They protect this Ummah in a profound way, offer us an inspiring example, and are ahead of many in striving for the good of both this world and the hereafter.

All praise is due to ALLAH, openly and in secret, from beginning to end. May ALLAH benefit us all from what we read, hear, say, and write.

لم يزل المرء يرى من أعاجيب الأمور ما يزيده يقينا أن الله اصطفى أهل الشام وأكناف بيت المقدس على من سواهم، كما في حديث النبي ﷺ "يصطفي إليه خيرته من خلقه".

وصلتني هذه الرسالة -بل هذا الوسام الرفيع- من بعض الأصدقاء الأحباب في غزة، يثنون فيها على كتابي "خلاصة قصة فلسطين والصهيونية"..

وأعجب من ذلك أن بعضا منهم اجتمع ليتدارسه في خيمة!!

ولست أدري كيف يستطيع المرء أن يكون في حال أهل غزة ثم يتمكن من تدارس كتاب؛ ثم يكون عنده من الوقت والطاقة ما يعقب فيه على بعض الأمور والملاحظات!!

إن هذا لشيء عجيب!

جزى الله أهل غزة عني وعن المسلمين خير الجزاء، فإنهم يدفعون عن الأمة شيئا عظيما، ويقدمون لها مثلا نادرا، ويسبقونها إلى خير الدنيا والآخرة سبقا بعيدا.

والحمد لله أولا وآخرا، وظاهرا وباطنا.. ونسأل الله تعالى أن ينفعنا وإياكم بما نقرأ ونسمع ونقول ونكتب.

Former Defense Minister and Chief of Staff Moshe "Bogie" Ya’alon commented:

-Netanyahu is intentionally obstructing efforts to secure the return of prisoners.
-During my term, my Egyptian counterpart, Defense Minister Sisi, cleared a kilometer and a half in Egyptian Rafah to prevent tunnel construction. The military now encounters only sealed tunnels. Yet, Netanyahu continues to raise the issue of the Philadelphi Corridor, fearing coalition breakdown by Smotrich and Ben Gvir if he pursues the agreement.

شبكة الهدهد
وزير الجيش ورئيس الأركان الأسبق موشيه بوجي يعلون:
- نتنياهو ينسف بشكل منهجي صفقات عودة الأسرى.
- كان السيسي نظيري كوزير للدفاع عندما كنت في منصبي، لقد اقتطع كيلومتراً ونصف من رفح المصرية حتى لا يتم حفر أي أنفاق، وما وجده الجيش الآن هو أنفاق مسدودة - لذا نتنياهو تمسك بموضوع فيلادلفي لأن سموتريتش وبن غفير سيفككان الائتلاف إذا مضى في الصفقة

Some voices continue to suggest that the Egyptian government secretly supports Hamas. However, Ya'alon’s statement isn’t an isolated example countering this narrative. Recently, for instance, there was the interception of the Katerina ship, which was carrying explosives and was halted on its way to Israel via Alexandria’s port. Moreover, journalist Bob Woodward reported that Egyptian officials had advised the Americans on taking strong action against Hamas at the onset of the conflict. Egypt also sources 18% of its natural gas from Israel, which ties its energy security to that entity. These claims of secret support are unfounded and misleading.

بعض الأبواق ظلت تردد أن النظام المصري يدعم حماس سرا، إن تصريح يعالون ليس الوحيد من نوعه، ولا استقبال سفينة كاترين المحملة بالمتفجرات إلى إسرائيل في ميناء الإسكندرية قبل أيام، ولا ما أورده بوب ودوارد عن نصائح المسؤولين المصريين للأمريكيين للقضاء على حماس في بداية الحرب، وصولا لاستيراد 18% من الغاز الذي تستهلكه مصر من إسرائيل لربط أمن الطاقة المصري بكيان الاحتلال. أبواق خسيسة ورخيصة.

Islamic History Council | Exploring the Abbasid Fall, Iran's Shift to Shia Islam, and Al-Azhar's Historical Role | Muhammad Elhamy

In this session, I address some essential historical questions:

-What were the key reasons for the decline of the Abbasid Caliphate?
-What influenced Iran’s transition from a Sunni country to a Shia-majority nation, and how did this shift shape the region’s history?
-Has Iran taken advantage of recent circumstances to extend its influence across Arab and Islamic nations? What factors have enabled it to establish a presence in several Arab capitals?
-What role did Al-Azhar play during periods of occupation in Egypt, and how does this role compare to its influence today?

Biography of the Prophet | 42. The Remarkable Role of the Mosque in Building the State and Society | By Mohamad Elhamy

-How was social integration rapidly achieved within the community of Medina?

-What lessons can we draw from the presence and experience of the poor people of As-Suffah in Medina’s society?

-What are the security and political benefits that the mosque provides to the Muslim community?

-How has the mosque continued to be, even today, a center for jihad, resistance movements, and a starting point for revolutions?

Simply for awareness, not for action, as hope has diminished.
With daily massacres, the number of orphans, already exceeding 19,000, is rapidly nearing 20,000.
In another corner, thousands of widowed women are left without a provider or support. Even the strongest men find it difficult to manage their own needs and their basic tents.

I wished that Menachem Begin’s memoirs were available in Arabic translation, and I was pleasantly surprised to recently discover that they had indeed been translated and published by Dar Al-Maseera in Beirut. These translations are even accessible online as scanned copies.

Perhaps my delayed awareness of this translation is due to the title chosen by the translator. The original title of the book is “The Revolt,” which conveys meanings of rebellion, revolution, or uprising. However, the translator opted for the title “Terrorism,” which, while understandable, reflects the content—real acts of terrorism—that do not align with the typical associations of revolution, rebellion, or independence as they are generally perceived. This choice might have inadvertently limited the book’s reach and discovery among readers.

I referenced this book while working on my own project, “A Summary of the Story of Palestine and Zionism,” and found it rich with insights that our nation can use to deepen its understanding of the issue, the nature of Zionism, and the mindset of these ruthless individuals, as well as how their state came into existence.

Even a violent criminal must plan and strategize to lay the foundations of a state; pure instinct is not enough. Those most concerned with their survival do not establish states without bloodshed. Even the most frugal cannot secure a state without spending vast resources.

This world respects and submits to those who achieve victory, regardless of how it is attained. This is a fundamental nature of the world and a historical reality that applies broadly (with the exception of Muslims, who uniquely maintain a moral legacy, holding even their greatest heroes accountable for actions others would overlook).

Menachem Begin was undeniably a terrorist. He not only targeted Palestinians but also killed British individuals and was sought after by them. Yet, what was the outcome? Once he succeeded and imposed his will, he was officially recognized as a leader and even awarded the Nobel Peace Prize!

English Version

Every father has felt sadness, pain, or even guilt when coming home with food or fruit for his child, only to find that the child has fallen asleep after waiting for so long.

This scene is far more painful than it appears. It could be analyzed over countless pages and could easily be the focus of a deep discussion or talk.

The hungry child sleeps in a state and place so sorrowful that, if stones could see it, they would weep. Even the bowl, the iron, and the lifeless objects nearby might shed tears, even if we do not hear or see them. But as for humans, they remain as cold and unfeeling as hard stones, blind to such suffering.

My dear reader, I want you to know that the words I am about to share have profoundly touched me since I first encountered them. I have been waiting for the right moment to present them in a way that is easy for you to grasp, but it has not been simple.

Sometimes, I ask myself: Were our scholars truly that brilliant, or has the wisdom of our time faded away? Or could it be that these matters are evident yet require insight to understand, and the deep ignorance and confusion we face today have clouded our perception? This confusion has made even the clearest and most evident truths seem uncertain and blurred.

These are the words of Imam al-Turtushi in his well-known work, “Siraj al-Muluk.” He speaks about the immense importance of a just ruler and the grave consequences of an unjust one.

Consider this: one day of fair and just leadership is more beloved to ALLAH than a year spent striving in His path. It even surpasses a lifetime of worship!

Doesn’t that sound like an exaggeration to you?

Well, don’t you see what is happening in Gaza and the overwhelming crisis at Al-Aqsa? And in Sudan, with all its calamities? And before that, haven’t you seen what happened in Syria with the massacres? And so many other places?

Don’t you see how this nation of over a billion people has been confined in “cages” called countries, each with a ruler who keeps the people controlled and suppressed? This nation of a billion now finds itself with nothing but tears and cries, watching as their sons and daughters are slaughtered, crushed, and ground down, dying from hunger, disease, torture, and humiliation.

Leave this aside for a moment.

Don’t you see that many of those confined in these “cages,” when they realized their helplessness and lack of power, could no longer bear to keep watching? So, they turned away and distracted themselves with talk of sports, songs, and TV shows—trying to cover up their weakness and despair.

Leave this aside for now.

Don’t you see that many who couldn’t distract themselves due to certain responsibilities were driven by their helplessness, lack of power, and fear for themselves to direct criticism at the courageous few, accusing them of taking on a great task that brought harm to themselves and their families?

Someone might ask: How do you know that those who turned to entertainment and music did so because of their helplessness and weakness? Maybe they are the root of the problem, and if they bettered themselves, the situation would improve.

Another might say: How do you know that those who criticize the courageous few did so out of helplessness and weakness? Maybe they are the true source of corruption, speaking falsehoods and afraid to speak the truth!

I could answer with many words and remind you that when real opportunities for action came, they were among those who acted—think of the days of the Arab uprisings, for example. But I will not. I will not defend myself, nor will I defend them.

Let me ask you instead—yes, you. If you were not confined in these “cages” called “nations” and the “prisons” of these systems, don’t you think you would have done much more for Gaza, Sudan, Syria, and other places than you are doing now and than you are able to do?

I believe the answer is clear—without doubt!

Now, after this long talk, read these words from Imam Abu Bakr al-Turtushi, and remember that these words are nine hundred years old! I have numbered and summarized parts of them for ease and clarity.

Imam al-Turtushi said:

1. Abu Huraira, may ALLAH be pleased with him, narrated that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “The work of a just ruler among his people for one day is better than the worship of a devout person among his family for a hundred years or fifty years.”

2. Qais ibn Sa’d said: “One day of a just ruler is better than the worship of a man in his home for sixty years.”

3. Masruq said: “To judge with justice for one day is more beloved to me than fighting in the path of ALLAH for a year.”

4. People said to Sa'id ibn Sulayman ibn Zayd ibn Thabit: “To judge with justice for one day is better in the sight of ALLAH than your prayers throughout your life.”

You will understand the truth of these sayings when you realize the good that comes to the people when the ruler is righteous.

5. Know—may ALLAH guide you—that humans are the most precious and noble creation in this world. With a just ruler, the world is set right, making the human being the most valuable and beneficial asset. This is why ALLAH created two abodes: the worldly life and the Hereafter. The ruler’s justice is what brings goodness to both, benefiting people and lands alike.

6. The worth of deeds increases with the extent of their benefit. The greater the blessing, the greater the gratitude due. Do you not see that the Prophets (Peace be upon Them) were the most beneficial to all of ALLAH’s creation, and thus they were the most honored? This is because they worked to guide people from darkness to light.

7. Similarly, a just ruler is like the successor of prophethood in guiding people, inviting them to the way of ALLAH, and upholding their religion and well-being.

8. There is no higher rank than that of a just ruler except for a Prophet sent by ALLAH or an Angel close to HIM.

9. Just as there is no rank higher than that of a just ruler due to the widespread good they bring, there is no rank lower than that of an unjust, tyrannical ruler because their evil affects everyone.

10. Just as a just ruler brings prosperity to people and lands, earning closeness to ALLAH and success in Paradise, an unjust ruler brings corruption to both, leading to sins, wrongdoing, and ultimately the path to destruction.

11. When a ruler acts justly, justice spreads among the people. They uphold fairness, deal truthfully with one another, and adhere to the principles of justice. This causes falsehood to die out and oppression to vanish. Laws of truth flourish, the skies send rain, the earth yields its blessings, trade grows, crops prosper, livestock multiply, sustenance becomes abundant, prices decrease, and people’s stores are filled. Even the stingy give, the generous have more to share, rights are fulfilled, utensils are lent freely, and excess food and gifts are exchanged. Wealth becomes plentiful and loses its former status, while people’s virtues remain intact and their faith is safeguarded. This shows that the ruler is rewarded not only for establishing justice but also for the resulting good that people practice.

12. When a ruler acts unjustly, oppression spreads throughout the land and among its people. Their faith weakens, their virtues decline, sins become widespread, and trust disappears. Souls become troubled, hearts lose hope, and people withhold rights and engage in wrongdoing. They cheat in weights and measures, pass counterfeit goods, and blessings are lifted from them. The skies withhold rain, the earth stops producing crops and plants, wealth becomes scarce, and people become desperate. They hold back even what little they have, fight over what is lost, refuse to give obligatory charity, and become miserly with voluntary acts of kindness. Generosity is abandoned, and they argue over trivial amounts, denying even the smallest claims. False oaths, deceit, and dishonest business practices become common. Trickery in judgments and disputes prevails. Only shame prevents theft, and only modesty restrains adultery. Such people become stripped of the beauty of their faith and lose their dignity. Their main concern becomes the sustenance of this world, and their greatest joy is their share of it. For those who live like this, being buried in the earth is better than living upon it.

13. Wahb ibn Munabbih, may ALLAH be pleased with him, said: “When a ruler intends injustice or acts unjustly, ALLAH brings loss to his people—in their markets, crops, livestock, and everything. When he intends good or acts justly, ALLAH brings blessings to his people in the same way.”

14. Umar ibn Abdul Aziz said: “The common people suffer due to the actions of the elite, but the elite do not suffer due to the actions of the common people. The elite are the rulers.” ALLAH said in this context: “And fear a trial which will not strike those who have wronged among you exclusively” (Al-Anfal: 25).
