KABUL: Urging religious scholars of Islamic countries not to attended ulema conference on Afghanistan in Jakarta, Indonesia, the Afghan Taliban have said the invaders want to calm ‘Jihadi’ through ‘fake fatwas’ and peace processes.
“In order to give a legal face to the illegitimate Kabul administration and in the series of propaganda and deceptive ‘Peace Process’ efforts, this time around the enemies of our religion, country and independence want to fool internationally respected scholars and Islamic countries by convening a gathering of Islamic Scholars in the city of Jakarta, Indonesia or in another country ,” the Taliban said in a statement issued in Pashto, Dari, Urdu and English languages Saturday (March 10). The Taliban said they launched jihad on the basis of 1500 Muslim scholars after their government toppled by US-led foreign forces in 2001.
“So in accordance with the religious fatwa (edict) issued by the esteemed scholars, the Mujahideen of Islamic Emirate under a single leadership and with unwavering resolve began their Jihadi uprising against the invading infidels,” the statement said.
It said “The invaders have employed various stratagems to prolong their indirect occupation, an important part of which is called the ‘Peace Process’ which seeks the surrender of Mujahideen and invalidation of Jihad by legitimizing the stooge Kabul regime and by passing preposterous fatwas.”
The transgressing enemy now wants to pacify the Jihadi uprising of the Afghan nation through misleading propaganda, psychological warfare, undercover plots, fake fatwas and other nonmilitary tactics like peace processes.”
Urging the religious scholars of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Indonesia and other Islamic countries not to attend the conference, the Taliban said “We wish to remind you once again that, may Allah forbid, your attending of such conference organized by aggressors is not interpreted as a sort of support for them and may Allah forbid, you do not become an instance of this admonition.”
“Esteemed noble scholars!
The Islamic Emirate believes with complete reliance on divine help that the enemies of Islam will fail in such intelligence ploys just as they have faced defeat on the battlefield. But due to Islamic brotherhood, we hope that the governments of the Islamic world will not facilitate such conventions.
Our message to the noble scholars is that they avoid participation in such gatherings and decide on this matter based on the book of Allah, Prophetic traditions and demands of faith.
Do not afford an opportunity to the invading infidels in Afghanistan to misuse your name and participation in this conference as means of att-aining their malicious objective. If it is not possible to openly declare your support for the Mujahideen, then it surely is possible for us to sa-feguard ourselves from such plots of the infidels and adopt a stance of non-participation.
May Allah allow it that our pain and message reaches you so that we are delivered from torment and punishment of the hereafter due to failing in taking into consideration the rights of each other,” the statement concluded.
