The English Translation of The Statement of the Minbar of Tawheed and Jihad

Concerning the Martyrdom of the Sheikh of the Mujahideen and Jihad, Sheikh Usama bin Laden

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah for everything, and prayers and peace be upon the Laughing Warrior our Prophet. Thereafter: We congratulate the Islamic Ummah in general, and the Mujahideen in particular, for the martyrdom of the Sheikh of Jihad of this era, Usama bin Muhammad bin Laden, may Allah have mercy on him. We in Minbar of Tawheed and Jihad - although we are saddened by the killing of our Sheikh, we are overjoyed for two things: First: The Sheikh of the Mujahideen, Usama bin Laden, may Allah have mercy on him has achieved what he sought and desired for nearly thirty years. Allah Almighty said:

Think not of those who are slain in Allah's way as dead. Nay they live finding their sustenance in the presence of their Allah. They rejoice in the Bounty provided by Allah: and with regard to those left behind, who have not yet joined them (in their bliss), the (martyrs) glory in the fact that on them is no fear, nor have they (cause to) grieve. They glory in the Grace and the Bounty from Allah, and in the fact that Allah suffereth not the reward of the Faithful to be lost (in the least). [Al-i-Imran 169-171]. Abu Hurayrah may Allah be pleased with him, said that the Messenger of Allah, prayers and peace be upon him said: I swear I wanted to fight for the sake of Allah, then die, then get revived, then die, then get revived, and then die and get revived [Agreed upon Hadith]. Martyrdom is something that was desired by our Prophet, may Allahs blessings and peace be upon him, for himself, then was obtained by our Sheikh, may Allah have mercy on him. This is something to cheer and is a joy for anyone who loves our Sheikh and his program. Second: The martyrdom of the Lion of Islam, Usama bin Laden, may Allah have mercy on him, (provides) life to him in Paradise, as we consider him so and Allah is his judge. It also gives him life in this Deen for whose sake he was killed. If you do not bring that for which you were responsible what you will be ordered to do will come and envelop you As has been said: "The blood of the martyr is light and fire" It has also been said: "The proof of our Call, is the martyrdom of our leaders" Allah Almighty said:

How many of the Prophets fought (in Allah's way), and with them (fought) large bands of Allahly men? But they never lost heart if they met with disaster in Allah's way, nor did they weaken (in will) nor give in. And Allah loves those who are firm and steadfast. [Al-i-Imran: 146] We - in Minbar of Tawheed and Jihad - look firmly for the blessed Call of our Sheikh to not only go forth from the circle of the blessed and right people, the Ghuraba, to the general masses of the people of Islam all over the world, but also to be, Allah willing, a great door by which many people of the non-Muslims enter into Islam.

And Allah hath full power and control over His affairs; but most among mankind know it not. [Yusef: 21] In conclusion, although America rejoiced at the departure of Sheikh Usama bin Laden, we inform them of the glad tidings that Allah has left behind (those) who will harm it. Praise be to Allah, Lord of all that Exists. Minbar of Tawheed and Jihad Friday, 4 Jumada al-Thani 1432 AH Corresponding to Friday, 6 May 2011 CE
