Press Release
Muslim Rulers Are Unqualified for Protecting the Honour of Muslims!
(Translated)

News outlets reported that US President Donald Trump danced on the red carpet at the airport in Malaysia on Sunday, 26/10/ 2025, when he was received by the Malaysian Prime Minister. A number of Malaysians, men and women, waved American flags and danced to local music to welcome the murderous criminal whose hands are stained with the blood of Muslims in Gaza.

The UAE President, Mohammed bin Zayed, had done the same thing before, during Trump's visit to the UAE on 15/5/2025, when a group of young girls lined up and performed synchronized head movements to the rhythm of traditional music.

The way these rulers are displaying Muslim women before a war criminal has no connection to Islam and does not represent Muslims. The true stance is that of the people of Malaysia who gathered in Merdeka Square (Independence Square) in Kuala Lumpur at 9:00 in the morning, under heavy security, raising banners against Trump and the Jewish entity, and chanting "Free, Free Palestine." This is the true position of the Muslim Ummah against these criminals, not what these ruwaibidha (insignificant ignorant) rulers are doing.

Our Islamic civilization, which represents the sum of our concepts about life, dictates that women are an honour that must be protected, not that their bodies be displayed to welcome the murderers of Muslim’s sons. This criminal killer dances, accompanied by his wife dresses in revealing clothes, representing their decadent Western civilization, a civilization of obscenity and debauchery! If there were a man among the Muslim rulers, they would not have received him in our lands, nor would they have extended their hands to shake his stained hands with the blood of the Muslims!

The correct way to deal with those who have committed crimes against Muslims is what the Messenger of Allah (saw) and the Caliphs after him did. The Messenger of Allah (saw), sent Muhammad ibn Maslamah to Ka'b ibn al-Ashraf to kill him because he had harmed Allah and His Messenger with his tongue, as he was a poet from the Jewish tribe of Banu Nadir. When the Jews of Banu Qaynuqa' attacked a Muslim woman and killed a Muslim, the Messenger of Allah (saw) led an army to punish them. The Caliphs of the Muslims who succeeded Him (saw) followed the example of the Messenger of Allah (saw) representing the glory of Islam and the Muslims. Among them was al-Mu'tasim, who directed an army that conquered Amorium in response to the plea of a Muslim woman. This is the correct way to deal with anyone who belittles a Muslim man or woman or an Islamic concept, he is to confronted with armies, not with a grand reception or by displaying Muslim women!

O Muslims: You do not need to be reminded of the importance of honour, for we are confident of your concern for it, and we are certain that we and you would sacrifice our lives and souls to protect our honour. But our greatest calamity is the ruwaibidha (insignificant ignorant) rulers who have surrendered our country and resources to the kaffir colonizers, remained silent about their crimes against the sons of Muslims, and did not stop at this level of humiliation and subservience. Rather they are surrendering our dignity and honour to them. Yes, their contempt for you has reached this level, so how long will you remain silent about them?
