a trade that will save you from a painful torment? That you believe in Allâh and His Messenger (Muhammad ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﷲ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ) and that you strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allâh with your wealth and your lives: that will be better for you, if you but know!
(If you do so) He will forgive you your sins, and admit you into Gardens under which rivers flow, and pleasant dwellings in 'Adn (Eden) Paradise; that is indeed the great success.
And also (He will give you) another (blessing) which you love, help from Allâh (against your enemies) and a near victory. And give glad tidings (O Muhammad ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﷲ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ) to the believers.
In these Ayahs, Allah (Exalted be He) has collected the means of victory and traced it back to two basic factors which are: Belief in Allah and His Messenger and Jihad in His Cause. Consequently, this will lead to forgiveness of sins, attaining Paradise in the Hereafter, victory in this world, and imminent conquest. Allah (Glorified be He) mentioned that Muslims like victory and conquest by nature, therefore, He says: And also (He will give you) another (blessing) which you love, —help from Allâh (against your enemies) and a near victory.
So if our kings and leaders, in this conference, entertain a sincere interest in imminent victory, conquest and happiness in this world and in the Hereafter, then indeed, Allah (Exalted be He) has shown them the right path and clarified the factors and means that lead to this. They only have to repent to Allah (Exalted be He) sincerely from their previous negligence and slackness in fulfilling the due rights of Allah and His Servants, take a sincere oath to believe in Allah (Exalted be He) and His Messenger (peace be upon him), apply the Shari`ah, hold fast to the Rope of Allah and fight the enemies as one hand with every power Allah has granted them. Moreover, they should abandon the principles which oppose the Law of Allah and the essence of His religion, rely on Allah (Exalted be He) and no one else from the eastern or western camp, believe that every matter has a means to be materialized and prepare every possible power by all permissible means of Shari`ah. They should also be independent, impartial to all the nonMuslim blocs from the east and the west, and be distinguished by believing in Allah and His Messenger, adhering to His religion and holding fast to His Shari`ah.Regarding weapons and different types of equipment, it is permissible to possess them by every possible way and every possible means in conformity with Purified Shari`ah (Law).
We ask Allah, by His beautiful Names and lofty Attributes, to bless this conference, make it beneficial to His Servants, make it a means of reuniting Muslims, and reconcile their leaders. May Allah grant success to those who participate in this conference in every act which pleases Him, honors His religion, disgraces His enemies, returns the stolen rights back to their owners and abstains from the principles and manners that oppose Islam. Indeed, Allah is the Owner of everything and have power over everything. May peace and blessings be upon His Servant and His Messenger, our Prophet Muhammad, his family, his Companions and those who followed him righteously.
