“The trial of three Muslim men from Britain, currently detained in Egypt and who are members of the well known Islamic political party Hizb ut-Tahrir, is due to reach verdict on Thursday 25th December 2003. They are on trial alongside twenty-three Egyptians in what is the latest chapter in the Egyptian government’s vicious campaign against all those who dare to speak out about its corruption, unjust practices and tyranny. After arrest in April 2002 the men were held without charge for more than four months and denied access to legal representation for forty-eight days. There are confirmed reports that they were tortured at the hands of Hosni Mubarak’s crooked security service – including the use of electric shock punishment, deprivation of sleep, threats of sexual abuse, beatings and solitary confinement.
Egypt, a crooked partner in the so-called ‘war on terror’, has been given a green light by Britain and America to torture and imprison all those who seek an end to tyranny and corruption. The picket will be a protest against the tyranny, oppression and crookedness of the Egyptian regime.”
Protestors from around the UK will assemble at the embassy at 1 p.m. on Monday December 22nd 2003.
The Egyptian Embassy is located at 26 South Street, London, W1Y 6DD [nearest tube: Hyde Park Corner/Green Park].

[Alhamdu lillaah alathi Nuru Samawaati wal Ardh waman feehinn.
Wa Lahul Hamd Huwa Qayeemu Samawaati wal Ardh waman feehinn.
WalaHul Hamd, Annahul Haq Wa Huwal Haq, Wa Wa’duhul Haq,
Wa Muhammadu Haq, Assalaatu wasalaamu ‘Aleyhi, wa 'Alaa Azwaajihee,
wa Durriyatihee, wa AsHaabihee Ajma’een.
Allahuma Laka Aslamnaa, wa Bika Aamannaa
Wa ‘Aleyka Tawakalnaa, Wa Ileyka Anabnaa.
Allahuma aghfir lana ma Qaddamnaa, wa ma Akharnaa,
Wa ma Asrarnaa, wa ma ‘aalanna.
Ya Ummat Ikhwatil Iman wal Islam]:
Allah in His Book gives us the glad tiding

“That those who say Allah’s Our Lord and then stand firm on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve. They are the dwellers of Paradise, abiding there, a reward for what they used to do.” [46:13-14]
And to stand firm is no less than to grasp tight to the Shariah, to adhere to Allah’s orders and to abstain from His prohibitions, to call to the adherence and establishment of Islam, to establish Allah’s limits on Earth, and to remain patient with the test that comes to those who strive in Allah’s path. And we are told by Allah :
æóáóäóÈúáõæóäøóßõãú ÍóÊøóì äóÚúáóãó ÇáúãõÌóÇåöÏöíäó ãöäßõãú æóÇáÕøóÇÈöÑöíäó æóäóÈúáõæó ÃóÎúÈóÇÑóßõãú
“That we will surely test you until We know who are the Mujahideen amongst you and who are patient” [47:31]
And truly we are all facing great trials and tribulations today, and the Muslim Believer feels those problems, and shoulders the responsibility for them. When we see our families in Palestine being made homeless, we have all been made homeless. When we know of the dishonouring of our sisters in Chechnya, we have all been dishonoured. When we hear of our babies and children being slaughtered in Afghanistan, it is as though we have lost our own son or daughter. When we see the humiliating treatment of our brothers in Iraq, it is our humiliation. When we hear of the torture and unjust jailing of our brothers in Syria, Turkey, Egypt and Uzbekistan, it is an injustice to us all.
It is narrated that RasoolAllah said:
that greatest reward comes with the biggest test, and truly if Allah loves a people
He tests them, the one who is pleased with Allah will have pleasure and reward, and the one who is displeased will have destruction and ruin.
Brothers, know that those tests and trials have come about as a result of us as an Ummah leaving behind Islam, of leaving behind the establishment of the good and the forbidding of the wrong, of leaving behind Jihad to make Allah’s Word most High and it has been narrated that RasoolAllah said:
[Fa itha thahira Hubbukum Hub alDunya, Falaa Ta’muruuna bil ma’ruf walaa tanhawna ‘Anil Munkar, walaa tuJahiduuna fee sabilAllah, Al Qaa iluuna Yawma ithin bil Kitaabi wal Sunnah Ka-Saabiqeena wal Awwaleena min al Muhajireena wal Ansar.]
that if the love of this life appears amongst you, so you do not enjoin the good, and do not forbid the evil, and do not struggle in the Path of Allah, those who speak that day with the Book and the Sunnah are like the first and foremost from the Muhajireen and Ansar.
Brothers, know that those who love Allah and His Messenger more than this life, that those who call for the establishment of Allah’s Deen on Earth, they are on the path of our beloved Messenger and the sahaba.
And when RasoolAllah was asked which Jihad was best- his reply was narrated as
“The word of truth to a tyrant ruler.”
Brothers, know that those who support Allah by obeying Him and working to establish His Deen, they will be supported by Allah as mentioned in the Quran:
íóÇ ÃóíøõåóÇ ÇáøóÐöíäó ÂãóäõæÇ Åöä ÊóäÕõÑõæÇ Çááøóåó íóäÕõÑúßõãú æóíõËóÈøöÊú ÃóÞúÏóÇãóßõãú
“O you who believe! If you support Allah, Allah will support you, and make your foothold firm.” [47:7]
Our Ummah is One Ummah, the tests facing it are all our tests, and the Victory promised ahead for it will be our Victory inshAllah.
And never forget the power of du’a, and that Allah is always present to hear the request of His believers. And it was narrated that the Messenger said:
[al Du’a SilaaH al Mu’min, wa ‘Imaad al Deen, wa Nur al Samawaati wal Ardh]
that du’a is the weapon of the believer, the pillar of Islam, and the light of the heavens and the earth.

“Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one (Muhammad (saw)) calling to Faith: ‘Believe in your Lord,’ and we have believed. Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and remit from us our evil deeds, and make us die in the state of righteousness along with Al-Abrar (those who are obedient to Allah and follow strictly His Orders). Our Lord! Grant us what You promised unto us through Your Messengers and disgrace us not on the Day of Resurrection, for You never break (Your) Promise.” [3:193-194]
Comment:
Muslims arrested for giving dawah according to the method of Muhammed saw, whatever next? maybe the prayer will be made illigal according to these evil rulers.
