The sufferings of the Muslims worldwide should not just be “a current agenda” in the 

headlines…


A conflict or even massacre and oppression takes place in a country; and the journalists,
commentators, producers all around the world make research on that issue and write
intensively, make news of it and start arguments for a solution. Yet this intensity over
the subject continues for just a few weeks or so. People get used to news regarding that
region in a short time. Images of terror, violence, conflict and massacre become ordinary
events that some look with careless eyes and turn back to his work.

Palestine, Kashmir, Iraq, Chechnya, Afghanistan, East Turkestan, Nigeria, Patani, Thailand,
Myanmar and many more… Usually all are first observed as a “current agenda”, then when the
agenda changes they are forgotten. People who maintain sincere and continuous sensibility
towards the progress of events are indeed rare.

As these lines are written or you are reading this article, thousands of Muslims on all
four corners of the world are still being oppressed, tortured, persecuted and martyred.

The Chinese government is executing genocide by martyring Uighur Muslims for 60 years. So
far approximately 35 million Muslims have been martyred. They were taken from their homes
by brute force and put to death without showing any legal excuse and given no right of
defence. Moreover, the state of the thousands of missing Uighur Turks is still unknown. 100
thousand Uighur Turk women were dragged away from their homes and forced to unlawful sexual
relations.

Meanwhile the Indian government insists on its determined policy of oppression towards
Kashmiri Muslims for 60 years. Up until now, 80 thousand Kashmiri people have lost their
lives, thousands have been oppressed in Indian prisons and no news heard of 10 thousand
Kashmiris. Over 4 thousand women were persecuted and raped. Islamic schools and newspapers
have been closed.

Yet another country, Patani has been going through a major persecution for about 200 years.
 Muslims  are undergoing the aggression of Thai soldiers every single day. The majority of
the people are forced to leave their home countries. The ones who resist are martyred.
Thousands of innocent Patani people are inhumanely tortured. Unsolved murders and missing
persons are daily events for Patani people. Muslims’ houses and fields in the region are
harmed. The majority of the women are raped and harassed.

There are still about 30 thousand widowed Muslim women and approximately 40 thousand
orphaned children in Patani. Over 400 Muslims were lost during the period of the martial
law. Approximately 2300 people were martyred, about 4000 Muslims were prisoned based by way
of illegal methods and 30 thousand people were detained in detention camps.

Recently 250 thousand Muslims were martyred in Bosnia-Herzegovina. Moreover 20 thousand
Muslim brothers and sisters of ours lost their lives in Nagorno-Karabakh. 1300 Azeri
Muslims including women, children and elderly were persecuted and martyred by massacre in
one single day in Hodjali.

Nigerian Muslims are also in need of the help of Islamic world. Muslims consisting mostly
of women and children are being martyred in Nigeria for 50 years. Mosques are being burnt
and a serious persecution policy is being executed against Muslims. In the recent conflicts
that flared in the aftermath of the civil war that took place between years 1967-1970,
thousands of people’s lives were lost and ten thousands of others were left homeless.
 Lately the incidents that occurred in Egypt, Tunisia, Libya and the endless unrest going
on in Syria cost the lives of thousands of innocent Muslims’ lives.

The majority of these regions are currently going through an ever-increasing terror,
violence, anarchy, tumult, massacre and torture. And right now, every person of conscience,
wisdom and common-sense, that is to say, all of us are responsible for every passing moment
of the millions of Muslims -women, young, elderly and new-born living under such
conditions- who suffer oppression and cruelty, who are held captive and whose rights are
violated.

The fact that all this oppression and cruelty in the world increase day by day and that
each passing hour another Muslim is martyred or suffers persecution and oppression stems
from the reason that the Islamic world is not united. The most definite and effectual
solution is the unification of Muslims under a single roof.  Such a union of the world’s
1,5 billion Muslims will bring forth a strongly founded force of peace and brotherhood. By
the will of Allah this force will then make the unlawful oppression and persecution and
cruelly shedding the blood of Muslims.

Consequently, every person longing for the dominance of peace upon the Islamic world and
prevalence of abundance, joy, blessing and happiness on our Muslims brothers and sisters
worldwide and also their living under democratic and civilised conditions should give their
support for this union.
