Q: Would you please introduce yourself to our readers?
A: In the Name of Allah who deserves all Praise. Peace and Blessing upon the Messenger of Allah and whoever supports him.
I was born in 1378 A.H. (1959 A.D.) in the province of Nablus, Palestine, and I left the city with my family when I was about 3 or 4 years old and settled in Kuwait, where I completed my high school studies.
My ambition then was to study Shari'ah at the Islamic University in Madinah.
However, to please my parents, I went to study science at Al-Mosul University, northern Iraq.
It was during this period that I found my Islamic orientation, and I came into contact with many groups.
I can not forget the favors the brothers and Sheikhs bestowed upon me.
I traveled about Kuwait and Hijaz where I had good affiliation with students of knowledge and Sheikhs who taught me the keys of understanding Islamic knowledge.
However, they did not quench my thirst about the answers which the Muslim youth demand, such as the insight into the true state of affairs, how to implement the correct legal rulings upon the state of things as they are, what is our true stance regarding the rulers of our time, the clear-vision of the path that will change the reality of the Ummah etc.
Thereupon, I devoted myself to study the books of Sheikhul Islam Ibn Taymiyyah and his student Ibnul Qayyim.
Furthermore, during my visits to Al-Madinah, I was attracted to the books of Sheikh Muhammad bin Abdul-Wahhab, his students, sons and grandsons, the Imams of the Najdi Da'wah, which enrich the public and private libraries over there.
I dedicated myself for quite a long time to the study of these books.
These books had tremendous influence on my direction later on.
I traveled several times to Pakistan and Afghanistan and there I met many brothers and Islamic groups who came from various regions of the Islamic world.
I was involved in some educational and Da'wah activities there.
While there, I wrote a book called "Millat Ibrahim" (The Denomination and Creed of Ibrahim).
I also had debates with the Mukafirah1 which led to the compilation of some work that remains unpublished to date.
I had debates and encounters with some Irjaa'i2 groups as well, yielding some books, such as "Delighting the Sight with Unveiling the Scepticism of Contemporary Murji'at".
I finally settled in Jordan in 1992, two years before my arrest.
I found the country swarming with Irjaa'i groups who wander about it in joy.
I began this blessed Da'wah by teaching in three various places, two of the lessons were public and the third was private.
The lessons emphasised the concept of Tawheed with its implications and obligations; La ilaha illallah with its conditions, what nullifies it and what are its strongest bonds.
The lessons also dealt with refuting the scepticism presented by Irjaa'i groups and other important topics that many people are ignorant of.
These lessons happened to be during the elections of the Legislative Council.
Consequently, discussions were flared up between my students and the supporters of Democracy and elections.
This issue needed clarification and accordingly I took the initiative to write an essay relating to this issue and refuting the most prominent suspicions presented by those people.
I entitled the hastily prepared essay "Democracy is a Religion, and whoever Seeks a Religion other than Islam, it will Never be Accepted of Him."3
We printed this essay and distributed it. Furthermore, I delivered a Jumu'ah Khutbah in which I explained the Da'wah to At-Tawheed, and I openly invited the people to denounce man-made laws, to disbelieve in the Legislative Councils and not take part in it.
I was keen to spread the scope of our Da'wah, so my brothers and I embarked on a number of travels to the North and South of the country.
We visited some of our brothers who participated in the Afghani Jihad and have a good Da'wah approach. We supplied them with our writings and urged them to excel in and emphasise the Da'wah.
Despite the young age of this Da'wah, it caught the attention of the Security Officials.
It was also unbearable to the Irjaa'i groups and the servants of the Government.
Hence, every faction has dealt with this Da'wah in its own cunning way.
The servants of the Government were eagerly engaged in deforming the image of the Da'wah and accusing our brothers with titles such as 'Takfeeris' and 'extremists' which are customarily used by the Irjaa'i groups to abuse the people of truth.
The Intelligence then began to search for and arrest our brothers one by one.
They questioned the brothers about the Da'wah, myself, the nature of the lessons which I deliver and the ideals which I call for.
These incidences were quite ordinary to me and I was awaiting and expecting it any moment since this is the nature of this Path.
The enemies of Allah acknowledge any organisation or group as long as it is ****d on the Irjaa'i belief, as they used to ask some of our arrested brothers: "Why don't you seek your learning at Ali Al-Halabee, Abu Shaqrah or Al-Albanee and others? You forsake these Sheikhs for a terrorist?"
A Da'wah which follows the path of the Prophets, establishes the creed of Ibrahim and unearths At-Tawheed can not be left alone.
The confirmation for this claim is the saying of Waraqah bin Nawfal (radhiAllaahu 'anhu) to the Prophet (salAllaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) at the dawn of Prophethood: "No man (ie. Prophet) before you has conveyed (the Revelation) without being opposed and treated as an enemy."
Hence, he who is not opposed by the enemies of Allah, has not conveyed the message and must have certain deficiencies, aberrations or deviations in him.
Undoubtedly, a Da'wah like ours is still in its infancy in this country; subjecting it to examination and purification will benefit and strengthen it and will stabilise it by distinguishing the impurity in it from the pure.
My brothers and I decided not to surrender ourselves. At the same time, we dismissed the confrontation alternative as an unmeasured reaction that we could be drawn into and time-fixed by the enemy.
My house was broken into seven times seeking my arrest, breaking the door and searching my house, confiscating many books, ********s, writings, and whatever belongings appealed to them.
In every raid, they used to demand that I must turn myself in. Finally, I was arrested along with a group of brothers, some of whom have previously asked me for a Fatwah (legal opinion) regarding them going across the river (to Palestine) for a covert operation using some explosives which I had saved.
Even though I did not mind such operations, I still say that the Da'wah to At-Tawheed at this stage and maintaining patience and striving for its cause is more deserving in this country.
The reason being is that there are many supporters of such operations (against the Jews), especially in this country due to its geographical location with Palestine.
Whereas there are few supporters of the Tawheed Da'wah, those who are getting ready with arms to fight the Imams of Kufr.
These traitors are in reality the guards of 'israel ' and those who implanted it in the heart of the Muslim World, and made it possible for the Kufar of the East and West to drain our wealth and fortune.
Verily, Allah has Said the Truth:
"And they wanted to harm him, but We made them the worst losers." (Al-Anbiyyaah, aayah 70)
For it was this arrest and slyness by the enemies of Allah in magnifying this issue and the media uproar created by their institutions, that served in disclosing our Da'wah and quickening its growth and spread by the Grace of Allah.
Indeed, there is much good in Allah's Patterning during bad times that do not exist during good times.
