Sorrow
Your prayers are needed.
Our beloved teacher, scholar and mentor Dr. Abdulalim

Israeli military terrorists are hunting unarmed Palestinians 
in the West Bank.
June 19: In the last few days, Zionist Jewish military has 
been terrorizing the unarmed people of the West Bank and 
have "arrested"  many youths. Two young Palestinian youths 
have been murdered by the Jews.
There have been several Israeli air strikes in Gaza too. 
Results unknown.
Israeli terrorists claim that 3 of their "students" 
[soldiers in civvies actually] have been captured by Hamas, 
but Hamas is denying it. Some mujahedin group might have 
done it. Resistance is the right of occupied people.
Here is the latest situation in Palestine.
Coming out of Palestine today, 6,531 adults and 300 children 
ages 6-10, have been taken away to prison in retaliation for 
the missing three Israeli settlers. House are being entered 
by Israeli soldiers, gardens destroyed, and people can not 
travel out of their gated cities...The people rounded up are 
from places like Jericho, Jerusalem, Gaza, Ramallah, 
everywhere.

Be sure you don't buy Israeli dates by mistake for Ramadan. 
Jews are terrorizing the entire population.
Message for Ramadan # 1
From Kaukab Siddique
Are you Ignoring what the Prophet, pbuh, said: Fasting does 
not mean Retirement.
"The Prophet, pbuh, said to the poet Hissan, r.a.:  "Use 
words which defeat the unbelievers [ hajw], Jibreel be with 
you!" [Hadith narrated by Bara' bin 'Azib, r.a., in Sahih 
Muslim, vol. 2, kitab al-Fadail.]
Hujw is a form of rhetoric and poetry which challenges the 
credibility of the oppressors. Islam does not teach peace 
with oppressors. In our world oppressors mean Zionists, 
imperialists, tyrants, and those who try to behave like the 
Pharoah as if they are god.
There is no scope in Islam for a "retirement" kind of 
behavior during Ramadan.
In America, hujw is a non-violent way of defeating the 
oppressors.
Latest from Syria
ISIS victories in Iraq are changing the situation in Syria. 
Latest news till June 18 is that mujahideen are now 
advancing into the Qalamoun mountains which Assad's forces 
had captured with Hizbullah help.
Even more significantly, mujahideen are again taking the 
initiative against Damascus and have made small advances. 
About 10,000 Shiite troops from Iraq which had attacked 
Aleppo are now being shuttled back to Iraq by air to defend 
Baghdad.  So many are difficult to replace but Hizbullah  is 
sending  several thousand to replace them.
Assad's air force has joined Iraqi helicopters in bombing 
ISIS but with little success.
ISIS has removed the border between Iraq and Syria.
Breaking News: Pakistani air force bombed North Waziristan 
again on June 20. It has killed 259 "suspected" militants by 
now. However resistance on the ground is increasing. 
Pakistan has lost nearly 100 troops in ambushes by the 
mujahideen. Some of these attacks are admitted by the 
military.
For earlier situation and the expulsion of the ENTIRE 
population, see below.
Pakistan's Military on the Rampage: Insulting Elders, 
beating up Teenagers.

Paki forces are making the same mistakes USA made in Iraq. 
Pakistani Military's Blasphemy on Prophet Muhammad, pbuh.
[Report compiled by New Trend's Media Monitor from the Urdu 
language media.]
F 16s swoop down and bomb defenseless villages every day. 
This is the 4th day [June 19]. The ground forces are closing 
in with tanks and heavy artillery supported by helicopter 
gunships. The military has announced that in three days its 
bombardment has killed 209 "extremists." ["Shiddat pasand" 
in Urdu.].
All roadways in to and out of North Waziristan have been 
blocked by the army. Curfew has been imposed and as a result 
hundreds of thousands of people are stuck in their homes 
with dwindling food supplies.
On June 19 the army announced that ALL the people must leave 
North Waziristan within THREE days. According to 
international law, this is genocide, the displacement of an 
entire population. They will be interrogated and insulted 
one by one ["verified" that they are not armed], and then 
sent out to be HOMELESS.
Where the homeless people will go is not clear. Thousands 
already escaped to the city of Bannu outside Waziristan as 
the army approached. There is no place for any more and the 
prices of necessities are sky rocketing.
The military is setting up a camp for the evictees but it is 
24 kilometers from Bannu which would make it impossible for 
the poor people to get food and basic requirements of 
life.
This horrific military operation has not been mentioned in 
USA's corporate media because it is being carried out by a 
military armed and funded by the US.
The moral blindness of the military can be seen in the name 
it has given to its operation: "The Blow of the Prophet's, 
pbuh, Sword." This is sheer blasphemy for America's rented 
army to claim that it is following in the foot steps of the 
Prophet, pbuh. The Blasphemy Law should be applied to the 
Commander of the army.
The people being killed are the most Islamic people in 
Pakistsan, devoted to prayer, fasting, zakat, sacrifice and 
Hajj. At least 209 of these "extremists" have been killed. 
To use the Prophet's name for such atrocities is certainly 
blasphemy.
Our America: Latest Khutba in Baltimore, Maryland
Sura al-Balad: The Islamic Message on Slavery
Kingship, Dictatorship, Military Rule, Male Chauvinism, 
Zionism, Mass Culture are all forms of Modern Day 
Slavery.
On June 20, Br. Kaukab Siddique gave a khutba about Chapter 
90 of the Qur'an on slavery. The small mosque in Baltimore, 
Maryland was packed, but for a wider audience across 
America, here are the main points:
3 Text:s "And what will let you know the path that is steep? 
It is to free the slave or to feed in the day of 
hunger....."
[The Qur'an 90: 13-14]
"....one who believes, .... who gives his wealth .....to 
free the captives." [The Qur'an 2:177]
"There are three kinds of people whose prayers Allah does 
not accept: One who leads prayers though people do not like 
him, and one who prays when the time for prayers is almost 
running out, and one who enslaves a free person." [Hadith of 
Muhammad, pbuh, in Sunan of Abu Dawood, kitabus salat.]
- 
Chapter 90, sura Balad, is one of the earliest chapters 
revealed in the Qur'an.
 - 
It indicates that the Islamic program and objective was 
clear right from the beginning.
 - 
We believe in the one God, Allah, and all His messengers 
culminating in Muhammad, pbuh. We pray, fast, give zakat but 
we forget the program the Qur'an brought right from the 
beginning. We have the means but we ignore the purpose.
 - 
Islam came to end all forms of slavery. Chapter 90 
signals, when it seemed impossible,  the final victory of 
the Prophet, pbuh, and his return to Makka in triumph many 
years later. It warns the wealthy arrogant ones.
 - 
Its central point is the comparison of Islam to an 
uphill, steep, path. It is a religion of struggle, no easy 
way.
 - 
The central aspect of this message is "to free the slave" 
and to feed those down in the dust.
 - 
Muslims in America can understand slavery better than 
anyone else because this country was built on the 
enslavement of people kidnaped from Africa.
 - 
The world today does not have that classical form of 
physical slavery but it has many other forms of slavery.
 - 
Not only was slavery condemned by Islam right from the 
beginning, but when the Islamic state emerged in Madinah, 
one of the causes for which Muslims were obliged to spend 
their wealth was to free captives.
 - 
Many Muslims think slavery was permitted in Islam but was 
mitigated and reformed. They are led astray owing to two 
facts:
- 
Slavery in all spheres of life pre-existed the advent of 
Muhammad, pbuh. It was this pr-existing slavery which was 
gradually reformed out of Muslim society through various 
acts of piety and repentance. Zaid, r.a., for instance 
became part of the Prophet's family.
 - 
Captives. Prisoners of war. These were kept with Muslim 
families. If they accepted Islam, they became part of the 
Muslim community through marriage.
 
 - 
We never treated prisoners of war as America has done at 
Guantanamo Bay. Tying them hand to foot, desecrsting the 
Qur'an in front of them when they were helpless. It marks of 
the savagery of this nation.
 - 
When we become "abd Allah" or "abd ar-Rahman," slaves of 
Allah, we are freed from all forms of human slavery.
 - 
There is conflict in the Muslim world owing to modern 
day forms of slavery:
- 
Kingship.
 - 
Tyranny through dictatorship.
 - 
Zionism which has turned an entire country into a 
concentration camp, calling Palestine "Israel."
 - 
Imperialism: The occupation of Muslim countries by 
powerful armies from the West and India.
 - 
The exploitation and enslavement of women through 
objectification and random sex in the West.
 
 - 
There is no law in most American states against human 
trafficking. Only when these enslaved women become 
prostitutes can they be arrested.
- 
The biggest outburst of human trafficking took place near 
the largest "super " this winter.
 
 - 
Under Obamacare [health plan] girls as young as 13 can 
get "protection" to carry out random sex acts without their 
parent's permission.
 - 
Only Islam can save America. We must be united and 
compassionate towards each other.
 - 
Muslims are constantly bickering with each other over 
matters of fiqh, If they were to pay attention to the 
enemies of Islam among the Zionist Jews, the imperialists, 
the racists [Fox TV], the racist Brahmin type Hindus, they 
would have no time to fight each other.
 - 
Islamic schools agree with each other in all 
fundamentals: Hanafi, or Hanbali, or Shafaii, or Maliki or 
Jafari or Ahle Hadith, that is Tawheed, Risalat, Akhirat, 
Qur'an, qibla, hadith. The quarrels come from fiqh, the 
minute details of jurisprudence.
 - 
We must be creative in da'wah. A thoughtful friend of 
mine living in England used to say: Write the number 90 on 
the back of the hands of our children. Tell them it is sura 
90, FREE the SLAVE. Or write 90:13 which is the sura and the 
verse.
 
Du'a: Pray for the victory of the mujahideen in Syria, Iraq, 
Kashmir, northern Pakistan, Afghanistan, Somalia, Nigeria, 
Mali. Pray for the overthrow of the tyrants and agents 
ruling our people in Egypt, Pakistan, Bangladesh. Thank 
Allah for the current great victories of Islam in Iraq.
IRAQ
Breaking News: Latest ISIS Victories. This time the Shi'ites 
fought hard but lost.
- 
June 17:
 - 
After two days of bitter fighting, the Islamic 
fighters known as Isis took the extreme north western city 
of Tal Afar from which entry into Jordan is possible.
 - 
June 17-20.
 - 
The Shi'ite forces of the US installed ruler 
al-Maliki [ex-CIA] fought hard for three days to save the 
biggest Iraqi oil refinery in Beiji. The Islamic forces 
finally defeated the Shi'ites. The Black flags with the seal 
of the Prophet, pbuh, are flying over the refinery. Many 
Shiite army troops killed.
 - 
June 18:
 - 
The mujahideen took the city of Baquba. They wanted 
to free the prisoners held by the corrupt regime but the 
regime got to the prisoners first and killed 44 of them. 
Local police say that the victims were shot at close range. 
[This mass murder was not publicized by the western 
media.]
 
President Obama's sophisticated tactics: The US wants the 
Sunni population, the support base of ISIS, to turn against 
the mujahideen. Efforts will be made to woo the Sunnis. The 
US is willing to let Iran do most of the fighting against 
the armed Islamic groups. Unfortunately for Obama, ISIS, 
publicized as harsh and cruel, has not killed even one 
civilian.
Life is returning to normal in Mosul, Iraq's second biggest 
city. People say they fear air strikes by Maliki but do not 
fear ISIS which is taking care of all their needs.
Many of Shi'ite military vehicles captured by ISIS are being 
sent to Syria to be used against Assad.

"No Military Solution" Obama Admits: US was whipped too 
badly in Iraq Last time.
President Obama has come up with a sophisticated plan to 
defeat ISIS. US won't be going in there again. Warmongers on 
Fox TV have been beating their chests and calling for war 
against ISIS. Obama has not forgotten that the US occupation 
of Iraq went so badly that a desperate electorate voted for 
Obama on the pledge that he would withdraw US troops from 
Iraq.
The O'Reilly flag wavers conveniently forget that a huge 
US-British armada occupied and bombed Iraq every day from 
2003 to 2011. Hundreds of thousands of Iraqis were killed. 
Huge numbers were put into prisons like Abu Ghraib which 
became symbols of American racism, torture and hostility 
towards Islam. US troops used mosques as camping grounds. 
But the mujahideen kept fighting. America spent billions of 
dollars but couldn't win. More than 4500 of USA's best 
troops were killed. What was worse was more than 75000 were 
injured, thousands of them with arms and legs blown off and 
eyes blinded because their armor saved them from  death. 
Obama remembers that Muslims no longer surrender before 
western armadas.. The suffering of the [Sunni} Iraqis was 
beyond any human suffering in recent years, but Iraq is 
rising again.
The black banners of Islam Inscribed with the seal of the 
Prophet, pbuh, have astounded the world by capturing half of 
Iraq in less than a week [much faster than the American 
attack on President Saddam Hussain]..

19 Jun 2014 President Barack Obama said Thursday he was 
sending up to 300 military advisers to Iraq, but added that 
America was not returning to a combat role in the country. 
Up to 100 U.S. special forces -- probably Green Berets, Army

150 Australians fighting in Syria, Iraq - official 18 Jun 
2014 Around 150 Australians have fought in support of 
radical militants in Syria and Iraq, raising government 
fears of a terrorist threat to Australia if the fighters 
return home, the foreign minister said on Thursday.
Foreign Minister Julie Bishop said she had cancelled a 
number of passports on the advice of security agencies in a 
bid to reduce the security threat to Australia. She did not 
say whether the passports were canceled to prevent 
Australians leaving or returning. "Our best estimate is that 
there about 150 Australians...who have been or are still 
fighting in support of opposition [terrorist] groups in 
Syria and beyond," Bishop told Australian Broadcasting 
Corp.

Former Auschwitz Camp Guard, 89, Arrested in US

An 89-year-old accused of aiding and abetting the killing of 
hundreds of thousands of Jews has been arrested. Johann 
Breyer is being held without bail in Pennsylvania after 
Germany issued a warrant for his arrest following new 
evidence. While admitting he was an Auschwitz guard, he says 
he was stationed outside and had nothing to do with the 
deaths. His lawyer told a Philadelphia court his client was 
too frail to be held while awaiting extradition hearings. 
But the retired toolmaker was refused bail on Wednesday 
after his arrest at home in Philadelphia. Mr Breyer 
emigrated to the US in 1952 and during the 1990s, the US 
attempted to strip him of his citizenship and deport him 
Our America: Boston
FBI Monitoring Prison Visits of Defense attorney with 
Marathon Bombing Suspect.
by Karin Friedemann
A pre-trial hearing for Dzhokhar Tsarnaev took place on June 
18, 2014. US Attorney Carmen Ortiz was front row in the 
audience. Ortiz has ambitions to be governor and is no doubt 
using this terrorism prosecution as a personal career 
move.
As they have done in every hearing, defense lawyers 
requested the removal of Special Administrative Measures 
(SAMs) restrictions on their client, who is being kept in 
total lockdown. Lawyers have been complaining that they are 
unable to meet with Tsarnaev without the presence of an FBI 
officer in the room. During the last hearing on April 24, 
Judge O'Toole agreed with the defense that there is no 
national security reason why an FBI officer needs to be 
present and felt that the prison security should suffice. 
Although prosecutors insist that the FBI officer present is 
not going to be a witness at the trial, defense attorneys 
reported that the FBI officer was taking notes. The judge 
refused to remove SAMs and told the government they should 
use an out-of-state FBI agent during prison visits. The 
Constitutional protection of attorney-client privilege 
clearly does not apply especially when the defendant is a 
Muslim.
The defense complained about media leaks. Instead of handing 
over evidence to the defense, the government is working with 
the media. FBI agents were interviewed for TV documentaries 
that aired on National Geographic and 60 Minutes 
commemorating the one year anniversary of the bombing. These 
reports, which conflict each other in many ways, served to 
influence the minds of the public regarding guilt, long 
before trial. Defense attorneys complained that it is only 
on TV that they are learning what the prosecution's case is. 
Judge O'Toole admonished the government for participating in 
media interviews, calling it "unwise," but refused to 
penalize them in any way.
Throughout the proceedings, the defense has been muzzled. 
Attorneys have been warned against making any statements to 
media or even talking to friends and supporters about the 
case. Previously, government prosecutors brought up the 
possibility that defense attorneys might pass along messages 
from Tsarnaev to his "following" - very similar to the 
situation with Shaykh Omar Abdul Rahman's attorney, Lynne 
Stewart, who was imprisoned in retaliation for making 
statements to the press regarding statements her client 
made, except that Tsarnaev is not a political or religious 
leader with any following other than people following his 
case.
Tsarnaev cannot read any of his mail without a lawyer 
present and has been advised not to answer any of his mail. 
Likewise, his family cannot speak to the media about their 
belief in their son's innocence, lest they be accused of 
"passing along messages."
The only good thing coming out of this hearing is that the 
government's emotional tactic of accusing Tsarnaev of 
"betraying America" was struck down.
"I agree with the defense position that it was unduly 
prejudicial," O'Toole said, calling this type of charge 
"obnoxious."
However the prosecution will continue to use "He was 
comforting our enemies" as an argument for motive in the 
trial. It appears that pushing the issue of Tsarnaev's 
interest in Islamic causes will be central to their case. 
This would imply that they lack evidence, or that the 
evidence they have would not make the government look good. 
So far, they have swamped the defense with millions of pages 
of inconclusive, grainy photographs and some computer files 
showing that Tsarnaev watched jihad-related material on his 
laptop, but they have refused to hand over tangible evidence 
like the GPS of the vehicle that was used to flee from 
police the night Tamerlan Tsarnaev was killed.
The prosecution asked the judge to demand that the defense 
supply them the name of their witnesses that they would use 
to counter the government expert witness' testimony on the 
Islamic nature of the Boston Marathon bombing. Presumably 
the government "expert witness" will be the laughingstock, 
Evan "Saddam is allied with al-Qaeda" Kohlmann, who has 
already been testifying in front of Congress about 
Tsarnaev's Islamic motivations long before he has even been 
found guilty. Defense attorney Judy Clarke argued that this 
is not standard practice, and according to the Fifth 
Amendment, they are not required to disclose this type of 
information to the prosecution at this point in the 
proceedings. O'Toole delayed making a decision.
US prosecutors say they will not use statements Tsarnaev 
made during his hospital bed FBI interrogation before his 
Miranda rights were read, during the guilt/innocence part of 
the trial but may bring it up for the sentencing part. 
Defense wants the evidence of these statements to be 
suppressed. O'Toole delayed the decision for mid-trial.
Tsarnaev's next status hearing is scheduled for August 14.
