Gaddafi, the enemy of Allah, His Messenger and the Ummah kills hundreds or even thousands of people, bombarding them by plane and lethal weapons; and he and his son threaten to slaughter the people of Libya and fight against them until the last man

Thus, with arrogance, vainglory and criminality, Gaddafi’s son – sword of Satan – says that he will continue to slaughter the people of Libya until the last man!! Gaddafi and his son brought the hired murderous mercenaries to carry out the task of slaughtering and shedding the pure and innocent blood!! We are not surprised that the enemy of Allah, Gaddafi, who has denied the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace be upon him and his family) tried to distort the Koran. His history is full of horrible massacres of hundreds, even thousands of people of Libya and others! With regards to the Islamic movements, including Hizb ut-Tahrir, and even all the people of Libya, Gaddafi has not observed any respect of either the ties of kinship or of covenant! We will never forget the execution of thirteen members of Hizb ut-Tahrir, where he executed them inside the schools and universities in front of the teachers and students, and in front of their families and their children.

We pray to Allah, The Mighty, The Irresistible, The Avenger, The Supreme to make the blood of those killed at the hands of Ghadaffi as the blood of martyrdom, and to make these people in the company of the Prophets, the sincere, the martyrs and the righteous. Oh! What a beautiful companionship. May Allah take revenge on this tyrant, and take him with such penalty as comes from one Exalted in power.

{إِنَّ أَخْذَهُ أَلِيمٌ شَدِيدٌ}

Indeed, His chastisement is grievous and severe.

O heroes in Libya

You have written a bright history with your patience, strength and bravery before the oppression and terror of the enemy of Allah. We ask Allah to grant you perseverance and strength so as to uproot this criminal puppet, and throw him, his son and his entourage in the dustbin of history with the other traitors. The ummah will stone their graves as they stoned the grave of Abu Rughaal.

And I stone his grave every year

As the people stone the grave of Abi Rughaal

O sincere sons of Libya’s army!

How long will you continue silent and motionless without making a move that Allah and His Messenger love!! Is it not time that your hearts submit to the command of Allah? Do you not love to make a shining history for yourselves as the supporters (ansaar) of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) did!? We call upon you to overthrow the Gaddafi regime, and support the people of Libya, and to work with Hizb ut-Tahrir, which you know and whose members you know well – so as to declare Libya as a Khilafah on the model of prophethood, which will bring Islam back to this world, with its doctrine and system. Thus, you bring to yourselves glory in this world; but what you will have with Allah is greater.

{ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يُحَآدُّونَ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ أُوْلَـٰئِكَ فِى ٱلاٌّذَلِّينَ }

Indeed, those who resist Allah and His Messenger will be among the most humiliated.
