The True Feelings of Zionists
"We should prepare to go over to the offensive. Our aim is to smash Lebanon, Trans-Jordan, and Syria. The weak point is Lebanon, for the Moslem regime is artificial and easy for us to undermine. We shall establish a Christian state there, and then we will smash the Arab Legion, eliminate Trans-Jordan; Syria will fall to us.. We then bomb and move on and take Port Said, Alexandria and Sinai." David Ben-Gurion, May 1948, to the General Staff. From Ben-Gurion, A Biography, by Michael Ben-Zohar, Delacorte, New York 1978.

World Power Silence Over Israeli Atrocities Slammed
Sheikh Dr. Abdul Rahman Bin Abdul Aziz Al-Sudais, Imam and Khateeb of the Grand Mosque in Makkah, in his Friday sermon lambasted Israel for its brutal strikes on Lebanon and occupied Palestinian territories killing and maiming innocent people.
"The hearts of all Muslims are bleeding with sorrow due to the destruction in Palestine. The planes are carrying out airstrikes and rockets and bombs are raining on the valiant Gaza and the blessed Muslim land of Palestine." He said there was a stifling siege, starvation, displacement and killings in a reckless escalation the like of which has not been witnessed. The marauding Israeli armory destroyed the infrastructure, universities, schools, bridges and hospitals and wreaked havoc and destruction on the innocent civilians.
The barbarity of Israeli forces can be gauged by the fact that they are killing old people and are not showing any mercy or sympathy even for children, he said.
"The land of Al-Isra and Mi'raj is an inseparable part of the Muslims' faith (Aqeedah) and Al-Aqsa Mosque is their cherished hope," the Imam said.
The utter destruction caused by the intransigent troops of the Jewish state is fast turning into a human catastrophe which has rarely been seen in modern history. The events of the last fortnight "are pulling the whole region to the edge of a raging volcano that will destroy everything. The region is being thrust into a dark tunnel the end of which is only known to Allah," Sheikh Al-Sudais said.
The Imam slammed international silence over the barbaric acts of the Jewish state. He expressed astonishment at the total silence and indifference of the major world powers and their weak stances despite the bloodbath in the region. "Why are they silent about the massacre of peoples? Where are those who claim to be the protectors of freedom, human rights and respect sovereignty and integrity of a nation? Where are those who espouse democracy, democratic ideals and world peace? Are they mere propaganda?" Sheikh Al-Sudais asked in his emotional sermon. He prayed to Allah to punish the wrongdoers and grant victory to the Muslims.
Sheikh Al-Sudais said all honest, upright, freedom and justice-loving people, the international human rights organizations and the United Nations Security Council must exert their efforts to stop this tyranny, oppression, injustice and aggression. He called upon them to respond to the voice of human conscience and save the lives of innocent women and children.
Sheikh Al-Sudais urged the Muslim and international community to stop the brutal and tyrannical aggression and establish a ceasefire. He stressed that the use of military force in dealing with international crises is a desperate solution that shakes world peace and security and stirs up the culture of violence and hatred among the peoples and communities.
"The Palestinian cause, and Al-Aqsa, Iraq and Lebanon issues and similar tragedies of our Ummah are issues that God is testing your faith (Aqeedah), resolve and unity. You brethren are facing disasters, ordeals and dangers. You cannot help them better than by unifying your ranks and adhering to the teachings of the Holy Qur'an and the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace be upon him)," Sheikh Al-Sudais said.
The Imam said the tragedies and adversities the Ummah is facing is greatly due to selfishness and discord. He said a Muslim who has strong belief (Iman) in Allah is not frightened by the oppression practiced by the enemy and he has no despair. He is confident that the light of Islam will not be extinguished.
Sheikh Al-Sudais stressed that Muslims must unify their ranks in fighting the enemy.
Finally, he commended the political stances of the Kingdom and its relief assistance for the victims of the onslaught.
He said the country of the Two Holy Mosques has always been among the first to help the disaster victims in Lebanon and Palestine and everywhere.
Meanwhile, Sheikh Abdul Bari Al-Thubaiti, Imam and Khateeb of the Prophet's Mosque in Madina advised Muslims to fear none but Allah.
In his Friday sermon at the Prophet's Mosque, he dealt with the concept of strength and weakness. He said that many people wrongly view strength and weakness from a materialistic perspective and worldly consideration.
He stressed that strength directs man's efforts toward good and leads him to being merciful toward others. Strength enables him to do right and prevent injustice and falsehood.
Sheikh Al-Thubaiti said the highest kind of strength is the strength of faith (Aqeedah) and belief in Allah. He said the strong believer relies on Allah and strongly believes that Allah is with him wherever he is.
"Take benefit of five before five: your youth before your old age, your health before your sickness, your wealth before your poverty, your free-time before your preoccupation, and your life before your death."
[Al-Haakim, Al-Baihaqee]
All praise is to Allah who has bestowed upon me much of His mercy over His creation. It is the Decree of Allah and He does whatever He wills. Once Allah has decided a matter there is no changing it. There is none worthy of worship but You (allah), glory is to You. Surely, I was among the wrongdoers. O Allah , I hope for Your mercy . Do not leave me to myself even for the blinking of an eye (i.e. a moment) . Correct all of my affairs for me . There is none worthy of worship but You. O Allah , we ask You to restrain them by their necks and we seek refuge in You from their evil. Allah is sufficient for us and the best of those on whom to depend. O Allah , Lord of the seven heavens , Lord of the Magnificent Throne , be for me a support against [such and such a person] and his helpers from among your creatures, lest any of them abuse me or do me wrong. Mighty is Your patronage and glorious are Your praises. There is none worthy of worship but You.
"Islam assists the faltering man
in regaining his steps,
when he falls,
it arranges to pick him up,
support him, take care of him
and help him heal"
