<p class="has-small-font-size"><strong>by Khaled Hamoud Alshareef</strong></p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote"><p><meta charset="utf-8">The Muslim Brotherhood association with the Qatari regime helped accelerate the MB plans, thanks to the limitless funds by Qatar.</p></blockquote>



<p>The 9/11 attacks of September 2001 were not a single secluded event, the attacks tie into past and present events, and the players who believe in the extremist Islamist ideology of the Muslim Brotherhood and Sayed Qutb.</p>



<p>Among the strongest believers in the teachings of the Muslim Brotherhood was the Iranian Supreme leader Imam AlKhomeini.</p>



<p>The image below shows the love and cooperation between Sayed Qutb and Mahabati Nawab Safawi who was one of the most important players in the Khomeinist revolution.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full"><img decoding="async" fetchpriority="high" width="512" height="341" src="https://millichronicle.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/qutb.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-22025" srcset="https://media.millichronicle.com/2021/09/11122717/qutb.jpeg 512w, https://media.millichronicle.com/2021/09/11122717/qutb-300x200.jpeg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px" /><figcaption>Left (Syed Qutb). Right (Nawab Safawi).</figcaption></figure></div>



<p>Now you can see that the Sufi Muslim Brotherhood and the Shiite Iranian regime were never enemies, in fact they were best of friends, unlike how they are shown to be in the main stream media.</p>



<p>The Pan Arab Baathism, PLO, Mufti Husayni&#8217;s Arab Nazis and Socialist all are linked to the Muslim Brotherhood in very complex ways and relationships of power structures that are built on hate and ideas of racial, religious and sectarian supremacy.</p>



<p>By early 1999, Al-Qaeda was already a potent adversary of the United States, but since the early 90s both Saudi Arabia and Egypt who are America&#8217;s allies in the Middle East were the main targets of this terrorist group in the Middle East.</p>



<p>Osama Bin Laden and his chief of operations, Abu Hafs al Masri, also known as Mohammed Atef, occupied undisputed leadership positions atop Qaeda’s organizational structure.</p>



<p>Within this structure, Qaeda’s worldwide terrorist operations relied heavily on the ideas and work of enterprising and strong-willed field commanders who enjoyed considerable autonomy.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-full is-resized"><img decoding="async" src="https://millichronicle.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/qaeda-terrorists.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-22026" width="780" height="364" srcset="https://media.millichronicle.com/2021/09/11123113/qaeda-terrorists.jpeg 660w, https://media.millichronicle.com/2021/09/11123113/qaeda-terrorists-300x140.jpeg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px" /></figure></div>



<p>To understand how the organization worked and to introduce the origins of the 9/11 plot, I briefly examined three of these subordinate commanders: Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (KSM) 9/11, Riduan Isamuddin (better known as Hambali) Bali bombing, and Abd al Rahim al Nashiri USS Cole.</p>



<p>We will focus on Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the so-called chief leader of the “planes operations”. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, no one exemplifies the model of the terrorist fanatic leader more clearly than Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. The principal architect of the 9/11 attacks. </p>



<p>KSM followed a rather tortuous path to his eventual membership in Al-Qaeda. KSM a highly educated and equally comfortable in a government office job in Qatar and a terrorist asset to the Qatari regime at the time.</p>



<p>KSM applied his sick and twisted imagination, technical aptitude, and administrative skills to hatching and planning an extraordinary array of terrorist schemes.</p>



<p>These ideas included conventional car bombing, political assassinations, aircraft bombing, hijacking, reservoir poisoning, smuggling Al-Qaeda key members into other countries using Qatari passports and, ultimately, the use of aircraft as missiles guided by suicide soldiers.</p>



<p>Like his nephew Ramzi Yousef (three years KSM’s junior), KSM grew up in Kuwait but traces his ethnic lineage to the Baluchistan region straddling Iran and Pakistan. Raised in a religious family, KSM joined the Muslim Brotherhood at age 16.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large is-resized"><img decoding="async" src="https://millichronicle.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/terrorists_q-1024x768.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-22027" width="-556" height="-417" srcset="https://media.millichronicle.com/2021/09/11123511/terrorists_q-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https://media.millichronicle.com/2021/09/11123511/terrorists_q-300x225.jpeg 300w, https://media.millichronicle.com/2021/09/11123511/terrorists_q-768x576.jpeg 768w, https://media.millichronicle.com/2021/09/11123511/terrorists_q.jpeg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure></div>



<p>KSM and Ramzi both became enamored of violent jihadist ideology at youth camps in the Kuwaiti desert organized by the Muslim Brotherhood of Kuwait in the early 80s.</p>



<p>KSM left Kuwait to enroll at Chowan College, a small Baptist school in Murfreesboro, North Carolina. After a semester at Chowan, KSM transferred to North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University in Greensboro, which he attended with Yousef’s brother.</p>



<p>KSM earned a degree in mechanical engineering in December 1986. Although he apparently did not attract attention for extreme Islamist beliefs or activities while in the United States. KSM plunged into the anti-Soviet Afghan Jihad soon after graduating from college.</p>



<p>Visiting Pakistan for the first time in early 1987, he traveled to Peshawar, where his brother Zahid introduced him to the famous Afghan Mujahid Abdul Rasul Sayyaf, head of the Hizbul-Ittihad El-Islami (Islamic Union Party).</p>



<p>The Hamas Connection—Sayyaf became KSM’s mentor and provided KSM with military training at Sayyaf’s Sada camp. KSM claims he then fought the Soviets and remained at the front for three months before being summoned to perform administrative duties for Abdullah Azzam.</p>



<p>KSM then took a job working for an electronics firm that catered to the communications needs of Afghan groups, where he learned about drills used to excavate caves in Afghanistan.</p>



<p>Between 1988 and 1992, KSM helped run a non-governmental organization (NGO) in Peshawar and Jalalabad, sponsored by Sayyaf. He was finally in, as a man the Islamists can trust and invest in his ambitious and successful business practices.</p>



<p>NGO&#8217;s play a significant role in the financing and logistics support for terrorist organizations. NGO&#8217;s is a tool in the arsenal of terrorism that yet to be successfully controlled by world governments fighting terrorism because of how complex they tend to be.</p>



<p>The NGO, KSM worked for was designed to aid young Afghan mujahideen. In 1992, KSM spent some time fighting alongside the mujahideen in Bosnia and supporting that effort with financial donations. After returning briefly to Pakistan, he moved his family to Qatar.</p>



<p><strong>The rise of the new terrorist dynamic, Qatar, Iran and Muslim Brotherhood Europe setup for the domain of the Middle East and the world</strong></p>



<p>KSM finally found his calling and moved to Qatar at the suggestion of his good friend the former minister of Islamic affairs of Qatar, Sheikh Abdallah bin Khalid bin Hamad al Thani who saw the huge potential of KSM as a power piece to further expand the Qatari influence.</p>



<p>KSM took a position in Qatar as project engineer with the Qatari Ministry of Electricity and Water, in what was a clear cover job for KSM. KSM engaged in extensive international travel during his tenure at the ministry much of it in furtherance of terrorist activity.</p>



<p>KSM used his position to expand the Qatari network of &#8220;NGO&#8217;s&#8221; and would hold his position there until early 1996, when he fled to Pakistan with the aid of the Qatari government to avoid capture by U.S. authorities.</p>



<p>After Hamad Bin Khalifa assumed role in Qatar a huge spike in terrorism around the Middle East and the world spiked, the Muslim Brotherhood association with the Qatari regime helped accelerate the MB plans, thanks to the limitless funds by Qatar.</p>



<p>The first attack on American soil was carried by the Palestinian 69-year-old Palestinian immigrant Ali Hassan Abu Kamal opened fire on the observation deck of the&nbsp;Empire State Building&nbsp;killing a Danish musician and injuring six other people before committing suicide.</p>



<p>The Mostar attack that was carried out by Al-Qaeda, and targeted Croatian civilians and policemen as retribution against the Croatian Defence Council (HVO), which had fought Muslim forces for control of the city during the Bosnian War.</p>



<p>In Deir el-Bahari, Egypt, six Islamist gunmen from the MB military arm Gamaat Alislam Iya massacred 58 foreign tourists and four Egyptians at the Temple of Hatshepsut.<a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://t.co/eoFurEikI3?amp=1" target="_blank"></a></p>



<p>Uyghyr separatists bombed three buses in&nbsp;Ürümqi, killing nine people, including three children, and injuring 74. Another bomb was found at Ürümqi&#8217;s main railway station but was defused.</p>



<p>Coimbatore bombings took place in 1998 in India. 13 bombs exploded over the course of two hours in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, killing 58 people. The bombs were planted by Islamic extremists Al Ummah organization and were meant to target Hindus as well as Hindu nationalist leader L.K. Advani.</p>



<p>Two United States Embassies in Nairobi, Kenya and Dar es Salaam, Tanzania were bombed by members of Al-Qaeda and the Egyptian Islamic Jihad an Muslim Brotherhood affiliate. 224 people were killed in the blasts (213 in Nairobi, 11 in Dar es Salaam) and over 4,000 people were wounded.</p>



<p>According to the Federal Security Service, the bombings utilized a mechanical mixture of Aluminium powder and Ammonia nitrate as the explosive.</p>



<p>Hezbollah&#8217;s favorite bombing method and one of their most commonly used to carry on attacks.</p>



<p>The terrorists have received instruction in training centers run by Khattab and Basayev in Chechnya.</p>



<p>1999 Tashkent bombings: Six car bombs targeting government buildings and Uzbek president Islam Karimov exploded over the course of an hour and a half.</p>



<p>1999 Jessore bombings: Islamist group Harkat-ul-Jihad al-Islami used two time bombs to attack Bangladesh Udichi Shilpigoshthi, killing 10 people and injuring another 150.</p>



<p><strong>The paradigm shift in terrorism, the Muslim Brotherhood worldwide efforts are aligned: The target is America</strong></p>



<p>In December 1999–January 2000. Hambali accommodated KSM’s requests to help several veterans whom KSM had just finished training in Karachi Pakistan.</p>



<p>They included Tawfiq bin Attash, also known as Khallad a handler who organize, recruit and carry on directive and administrative roles for Al-Qaeda attacks, he later would help bomb the USS Cole, and the future 9/11 hijackers Nawaf al Hazmi and Khalid al Mihdhar.</p>



<p>A three-day-long meeting was held in the hotel room of Yazid Sufaat, a former Malaysian Army captain and businessman, in a hotel in Kuala Lumpur.</p>



<p>The summit&#8217;s purpose was to plan future attacks, which included the October 2000 bombing of the USS Cole and the 11 September 2001 attack plot. The attendance consisted of Arab veterans of the Soviet–Afghan War.</p>



<p>Among the most notable was Hambali a Pakistani senior leader of Al-Qaeda, Ramzi bin al-Shibh a Yemeni, and a &#8220;key facilitator for the September 11 attacks&#8221;, Nawaf al-Hazmi a Saudi fighter, Khalid al-Mihdhar a Yemeni-Saudi fighter, and Tawfiq bin Attash a handler for Al-Qaeda.</p>



<p>Before the meeting, the United States intercepted a telephone call to Yemen by al-Mihdhar concerning arrangements for the trip. Osama bin Laden had called that number dozens of times. </p>



<p>On request of the CIA, the Malaysian authorities videotaped the meeting, but no sound recordings were made. Are you frigging kidding me?</p>



<p>The men were also photographed when they came out of the meeting. American investigators did not identify these men until much later. That Bin al-Shibh attended the meeting, and it was discovered by the investigators by looking into his credit card records.</p>



<p>Sufaat was later arrested, but he denied that he knew any of the men and said that Hambali had arranged the meeting.</p>



<p>Do look at the facts, the planner of the 911 attack was a Pakistani with ties to Qatar KSM, the facilitators were Yemanis Attash and AlShibah, and the recruiting was done by a German Syrian Mohammed Haydar Zammar who was part of the Hamburg cell.</p>



<p><strong>The German Connection</strong></p>



<p>On November 1, 1998, future-hijackers Mohamed Atta an Egyptian member of Al-Qaeda and the leader of the hijackers, Marwan al-Shehhi an Emarati hijacker-pilot of United Airlines Flight 175, and Ramzi bin al-Shibh a Yemeni facilitator for AlQaeda moved into an apartment together on Marienstraße. </p>



<p>Here they formed the secretive Hamburg cell, which also included other participants in the 9/11 plot including Mohammed Haydar Zammar who recruited the hijackers.</p>



<p>They met together three or four times a week to discuss their strategy and the anti-American and anti-Israeli views that enabled them to recruit foot soldiers.</p>



<p>The 9/11 Commission Report notes in Chapter 5 that, &#8220;According to Bin al-Shibh now in U.S. custody, a chance meeting on a train in Germany caused the group to travel to Afghanistan instead.  An individual named Khalid al Masri (or Khalid al-Masri) approached bin al-Shibh and Shehhi (because they were Arabs with beards, bin al-Shibh thinks) and struck up a conversation about jihad in Chechnya. </p>



<p>&#8220;When they later called Masri and expressed well in going to Chechnya, he told them to contact Abu Musab in Duisburg. Abu Musab turned out to be Mohamedou Ould Slahi, a significant Al-Qaeda operative who, even then, was well known to U.S. and German intelligence, though neither government apparently knew he was operating in Germany in late 1999&#8221;.</p>



<p>For me, that&#8217;s the load of non-sense as the sequence of events shows it was planned. Moreover, it makes no sense since Abu Musab is a key player and leading figure of Al-Qaeda who is well recognized since the med 80s, he was also on the most wanted lists of Saudi, Egyptian and American intelligence agencies at the time.</p>



<p><strong>9/11 Hijackers and the Recruiter</strong></p>



<p>Zammar’s family moved to Germany when he was 10, and he first tried to participate in armed conflict in 1982, far earlier than has previously been reported.</p>



<p>He traveled to Jordan in an attempt to enter Syria to join the armed wing of the Muslim Brotherhood, the Fighting Vanguard, which was engaged in an earlier uprising against the ruling Assad family.</p>



<p>He was turned back by the Jordanian authorities, but on the trip he met a man who would play a big role in his future: Mohammed al-Bahaiya, known as Abu Khaled al-Suri, who would later become a key figure in the current Syrian war.</p>



<p>Over the next decade, Zammar moved through the militant-Islamist circuit, traveling regularly to Afghanistan, volunteering for a stint with al-Qaeda-affiliated militants in the war in Bosnia and visiting London where he befriended the Jordanian Palestinian preacher Abu Qatada, a prominent figure long suspected by the United States of having links to Al-Qaeda.</p>



<p>Meanwhile, Zammar was developing a circle of followers at Hamburg’s al-Quds mosque, which had become a magnet for young Muslims in the city and eventually the hub of radicalization of young men and recruiting them as cannon fodder in the service of the Muslim Brotherhood.</p>



<p>Zammar says he failed to qualify as an imam or preacher at the mosque because he was unable to memorize the Koran, but he held regular gatherings with small groups of the men who went there to pray, seeking to convince them that they had a duty to wage jihad on behalf of Muslims worldwide and to travel to Afghanistan for military training.</p>

</div></figure>



<p>The first member of the Hamburg cell, he remembers meeting Ramzi Binalshibh a known facilitator that outrank Zammar. Next he met Mohamed Atta, the hijackers’ ringleader, who piloted the first of the two planes that struck the World Trade Center towers.</p>



<p>Zammar recalls Atta as a “good guy” with “high moral standards”. Then came the others: Marwan al-Shehhi, a citizen of the United Arab Emirates who steered the plane that struck the second tower. Ziad Samir Jarrah, the Lebanese who piloted the plane that crashed in a Pennsylvania field after passengers overpowered the hijackers, and four others from the group whom Zammar also persuaded to travel to Afghanistan.</p>



<p>Zammar says, “It was not easy. It took time. They were studying at the university”, he said. “I was telling them, for example, someone is going to attack you, your honor, your property, while you cannot even use a pistol. There is no country in the world that does not have an army to defend itself, while we Muslims do not”.</p>



<p>Notice his words are that aligned with the creed of the Muslim Brotherhood. Zammar claims he didn&#8217;t know, obviously he is lying.</p>



<p><strong>The hijackers arrival to the United States and the attacks of 9/11 zero hour</strong></p>



<p>The first hijackers to arrive in the United States were&nbsp;Khalid al-Mihdhar&nbsp;and&nbsp;Nawaf al-Hazmi, who settled in&nbsp;San Diego County, California, in January 2000.</p>



<p>They were followed by three hijacker-pilots,&nbsp;Mohamed Atta,&nbsp;Marwan al-Shehhi, and&nbsp;Ziad Jarrah&nbsp;in mid-2000 to undertake flight training in&nbsp;South Florida.</p>



<p>The fourth hijacker-pilot, Hani Hanjour, arrived in San Diego in December 2000. The rest of the &#8220;muscle hijackers&#8221; arrived in early- and mid-2001. Khalid al-Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi were both experienced and respected jihadists in the eyes of al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.</p>



<p>As for the pilots who would go on to participate in the attacks, three of them were original members of the Hamburg cell (Mohamed Atta, Marwan al-Shehhi and Ziad Jarrah).</p>



<p>Following their training at Al-Qaeda training camps in Afghanistan, they were chosen by Bin Laden and al-Qaeda&#8217;s military wing due to their extensive knowledge of western culture and language skills, increasing the mission&#8217;s operational security and its chances for success.</p>



<p>The fourth intended pilot, Ramzi bin al-Shibh, a member of the Hamburg cell, was also chosen to participate in the attacks yet was unable to obtain a visa for entry into the United States. He was later replaced by Hani Hanjour, a Saudi national.</p>



<p>Mihdhar and Hazmi were also potential pilot hijackers, but did not do well in their initial pilot lessons in San Diego. Both were kept on as &#8220;muscle&#8221; hijackers, who would help overpower the passengers and crew and allow the pilot hijackers to take control of the flights.</p>



<p>In addition to Mihdhar and Hazmi, thirteen other muscle hijackers were selected in late 2000 or early 2001. All were from Saudi Arabia, with the exception of Fayez Banihammad, who was from the United Arab Emirates.</p>



<p><strong>The Root of all Evil</strong></p>



<p>Please watch this video for the conclusion of what all I said. The root of all evil are Iran and Qatar.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-video aligncenter"><video controls src="https://millichronicle.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/jmcnMpIzuey_USpT.mp4"></video></figure>



<p>It&#8217;s very evident and quite obvious that, a Muslim Brotherhood or popularly known as Ikhwanul-Muslimeen in the Arab world was the back-bone in terms of ideological upbringing and the armed-support of the terrorists and terrorist organizations. The international communities have to wake up to this reality and collectively defeat this ideology in order to defeat modern terrorism.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="has-small-font-size"><strong>by Gaith Al-Tamimi</strong></p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote"><p>The satanic method was based on spreading the culture of worshiping the graves of the righteous, shrines, praying to the dead, stones, trees, and glorifying the Sufi orders and religious men.</p></blockquote>



<p>The Ottomans ruled the Arab world since 1326 until the collapse of their caliphate in 1922.</p>



<p>During that, they were in need for a way to spread their influence and control and at the same time to finance the treasury of their empire at Istanbul.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter is-resized"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBEsBX0AYDPS7.jpg" alt="" width="471" height="276"/></figure></div>



<p>Therefore, Ottomans spread the religious rituals and superstitions through Sufism, and the satanic method was based on spreading the culture of worshiping the graves of the righteous, shrines, praying to the dead, stones, trees, and glorifying the Sufi orders and religious men.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-gallery aligncenter columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex"><ul class="blocks-gallery-grid"><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img decoding="async" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBFSoXkAEJbrZ.jpg" alt=""/></figure></li><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img decoding="async" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBFTIWAAIp_uA.jpg" alt=""/></figure></li></ul></figure>



<p>Ottomans took advantage of the Arabs&#8217; attachment to Islam by constructing shrines and mosques around the graves of the righteous and scholars, and sometimes when they did not find a real grave of a prophet or of religious man somewhere, they put a fabricated grave. But Why?</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter is-resized"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBGNsXYAMkbW5.jpg" alt="" width="628" height="766"/></figure></div>



<p>Then the Ottomans exploited the ignorant and weak Muslims and convinced them that it is necessary to pray for the dead in order to obtain sustenance, marriage, pregnancy, wealth, salvation, and success in life.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><img decoding="async" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBGzbXgAUz9Mt.jpg" alt=""/></figure></div>



<p>Then, their religious men convinced them that, in order to get their prayers accepted, they had to pay an amount of money to the guardian of the grave of that deceased. More the money paid the greater the opportunity to accept the supplication and achieve the required wish.</p>

<p>As Muslims started neglecting the truth of their religion, a vast network of holy shrines sprang up.</p>



<p>It has spread in thousands to most parts of the Islamic world. Indeed, a number of graves worshiped in a country were no less than number of cities and villages in that country.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-gallery columns-4 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex"><ul class="blocks-gallery-grid"><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img decoding="async" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBNNDXkAA8ij4.jpg" alt=""/></figure></li><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img decoding="async" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBNNqX0A04Pmd.jpg" alt=""/></figure></li><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img decoding="async" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBNNBXkAEd6SQ.jpg" alt=""/></figure></li><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img decoding="async" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBNOcXkAIDi2G.jpg" alt=""/></figure></li></ul></figure>



<p>Moreover, the Arabian Peninsula was not an exception to the case of the Islamic world, which was suffering from poverty, ignorance, backwardness and being far from the truth of Islam, and there were hundreds of tombs for which money and sacrifices were offered so prayers get accepted.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex"><ul class="blocks-gallery-grid"><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img decoding="async" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBOjcXcAYTupN.jpg" alt=""/></figure></li><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img decoding="async" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBOjdXYAcwSdp.jpg" alt=""/></figure></li></ul></figure>



<p>Ottomans followed by Persians started spreading mystic ideas of Sufism and Shi&#8217;ism, such as worshiping graves, trees and stones, begging in front of them, and circling around them, and collecting money from the fools and weak who wanted God&#8217;s forgiveness, but their money went to Istanbul or Tehran.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-video aligncenter"><video controls src="https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1316107981176672257/pu/vid/640x360/dDl-AW3009b10Hso.mp4?tag=10"></video></figure>



<p>Therefore, the Arabian Peninsula was living its worst days in delusion, backwardness, and horrific fragmentation and domination of the tribal leaders that the Ottomans bought their loyalty to oppress other tribes and nomads.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><img decoding="async" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBSJVWoAAvEk9.jpg" alt=""/></figure></div>



<p>This dire situation continued until a religious reformer Muhammad bin Abd AlWahhab appeared in the early 1700s and began his call for true Islam, by rejecting the religious myths that the Ottomans brought.</p>



<p>The Ottomans disturbed by the movement of Muhammad bin Abd al-Wahhab and called it (Wahhabism) in order to try to portray it as if it was something contingent on Islam while it was nothing but an invitation to correct beliefs and return to true Islam.</p>



<p>Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab was in need of a political and military leader to support his reform movement, and he found this in Muhammad bin Saud, the Emir of Diriyah, a village in Najd in the middle of the Arabian Peninsula. Here is the first Saudi state which was born in 1744.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter is-resized"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBUDcXkAIoGHW.jpg" alt="" width="736" height="601"/></figure></div>



<p>The reform movement of Sheikh Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab called for a return to pure and true Islam, by praying directly to God which stipulates the prohibition of praying to the dead and at graves, and the prohibition of giving money to them by any form.</p>



<p>Consequently, the Muslims in Arabia launched a campaign to demolish those shrines and end the era of worshiping the dead and the graves, and as a result, the flow of funds to the treasury of the Ottoman Empire stopped from the holiest cities of Mecca and Medina.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-7 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex"><ul class="blocks-gallery-grid"><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img decoding="async" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBVMYXsAEdQ3j.jpg" alt=""/></figure></li><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img decoding="async" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBVMcXkAE4SLq.jpg" alt=""/></figure></li></ul></figure>



<p>All this made Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab and his teachings a nightmare threatening the flow of money to the Ottoman treasury, so they wrote books against him and paid their Arab clients to distort his image and portray him as pure evil.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter is-resized"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBVxvXkAU6_ob.jpg" alt="" width="602" height="338"/></figure></div>



<p>Therefore, the term Wahhabism was coined in a deceitful way to link all forms of terrorism and extremism with Saudi Arabia, and to prevent the influence of Wahhabism upon other Muslims, and to retain the loss of the income of the shrines and the blind followers.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-gallery columns-4 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-9 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex"><ul class="blocks-gallery-grid"><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img decoding="async" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBWbqWkAE9vuO.jpg" alt=""/></figure></li><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img decoding="async" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBWb0WoAAiOg2.jpg" alt=""/></figure></li><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img decoding="async" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBWbyXYAII2Rc.jpg" alt=""/></figure></li><li class="blocks-gallery-item"><figure><img decoding="async" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBWcJWAAARla3.jpg" alt=""/></figure></li></ul></figure>



<p>Unfortunately, the Ottoman Sufi myths and the worshiping of shrines are still widespread in many countries of the Islamic world because they still generate a lot of money for their owners who were beneficiaries of distorting the Wahhabi movement of Muhammad bin AbdulWahhab.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter is-resized"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EkPBXToXsAEo8y7.jpg" alt="" width="665" height="665"/></figure></div>



<p>They continue stealing money of fools. You can imagine how much money one grave produces, for example the Iranian regime relies on the money of the shrines to finance many of its terrorist operations. Look at the huge amount of money put in by those who dreamed of wealth.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-video aligncenter"><video controls src="https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1316108133924732928/pu/vid/320x224/WZyI45EGoGL7klZb.mp4?tag=10"></video></figure>



<p>They continue spreading crazy rituals and dances that have no relation to Islam but the fools would indulge in, to fire up their emotions that will end up with them paying money and meeting everything the Sheikh of the Sufi order wants, look at their situation in Turkey now</p>



<figure class="wp-block-video aligncenter"><video controls src="https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1316108199360069634/pu/vid/640x360/Iw3hopB6EnHb6uJA.mp4?tag=10"></video></figure>



<p>Consequently, many ignorant Muslims still use the term Wahhabism, unintentionally, exactly as the Ottomans wanted them to do, and they do not know what is really the truth of Wahhabism or Muhammad Bin Abd AlWahhab!</p>



<p>Muslim Brotherhood and Sufis who dreamed of restoring the Ottoman Empire intentionally linked terrorism to Wahhabism and they will not tell you that the teachings of Wahhabism, for example, prohibit suicide operations while they encourage them. Here is their leader Al-Qaradawi.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-video aligncenter"><video controls src="https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1316108388435136512/pu/vid/640x360/RLcG0yFfBuCLLLrV.mp4?tag=10"></video></figure>



<p>On the contrary, what is known as Islamic terrorism, it did not appear until the establishment of the Muslim Brotherhood 100 years ago, which is considered the womb from which Al Qaeda, ISIS and other extremist terrorist groups emerged.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-video aligncenter"><video controls src="https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1316108469108379648/pu/vid/1280x720/qafkJ7cbLx7fTcs_.mp4?tag=10"></video></figure>



<p>May God have mercy on Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab. Without him, we would have been in Saudi Arabia where we go every Friday to the graves and pray to dead for success in life, as is happening now in Turkey, Iran, Iraq, Syria, Egypt, Morocco and many Muslim countries.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[by Tareq bin Mohammed Since the Brotherhood emerged from Sufi thought, so finding a kinetic match between them and Freemasonry]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="has-small-font-size"><strong>by Tareq bin Mohammed</strong></p>



<figure class="wp-block-pullquote is-style-default"><blockquote><p>Since the Brotherhood emerged from Sufi thought, so finding a kinetic match between them and Freemasonry is not surprising&#8230;</p></blockquote></figure>



<p>I would like to write an introduction to summarize the sequence of the emergence of some of the most dangerous sects in Islam. In order to conclude the answer to a question that is still pending, which is the similarity of the mechanism of secret organizations.</p>



<p>Initially, All the heavenly messages sent by God through His messengers had only one purpose, namely, confess the oneness of Allah i.e. God and worship Him alone. All the heavenly religions (not just Islam) brought in by the prophets (those of determination), emerged after their death the stray esoteric sects. </p>



<p>Consequently, secret groups emerged from these sects that serve and implement their worldly agenda under the ambiguous concept of Secularism, such as politics, economics, and the formation and direction of public opinion. </p>



<p>Islamic history witnessed the birth of the first of these misguided sects in the first century of Islam, where a sect called the Kharijites [those who label everyone with disbelief, without exception] emerged, and despite the danger of the Kharijites, it didn&#8217;t equal the danger of Jahmi, Fatalism and Postponers [Murjites], the first esoteric theology sects in Islam. Then, in the late Umayyad era, the Mu&#8217;tazila sect emerged and flourished in the Abbasid era, the most astray sect in Islamic history. </p>



<p>Since then, the rise of the esoteric sects has continued until the heretic Ibn Arabi came with his heretical and astray ideas to emerge into the Islamic world the most dangerous of the esoteric sects, Sufism. The wisdom of God, Glorified and Exalted Be He, required that His messages be with characteristics appropriate to the people who received them. </p>



<p>The message of Moses was accompanied by materialist miracles, while Jesus, came with spiritual miracles, as for Prophet Mohammed, his miracle was mental. If the characteristics of these celestial messages are analyzed, it will not be difficult to deduce how these clandestine groups arose and how their interests converge with each other, despite the apparent difference in understanding their meanings (celestial messages) that produced their religious difference. </p>



<p>When Materialism, Spiritualism and Rationalism are combined, the result is a terrible combination of astray that is employed and directed to all peoples, even if they do not share the same belief. The origin that called them to establish what is known as secret congregations is not religion, but the exploitation of it to control peoples and pass their worldly goals. </p>



<p>No matter how many names have been made through the ages, such as the Templars, Freemasonry, Jesus&#8217; Secret Scrolls&#8230;etc, but the ongoing truth is that they are secret organizations whose ultimate goal is to monopolize authority. </p>



<p>At that point, we will extract the answer to the question that has always been of concern to many people: How is the mechanism for the international regulation of the Muslim Brotherhood<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/MuslimBrotherhood?src=hashtag_click"> </a>similar to Freemasonry and other clandestine regulations? </p>



<p>We must conclude from what was written above that the esoteric groups have similar features, behaviors, and formations. And since the Muslim Brotherhood emerged from Sufi thought, so finding a kinetic match between them and Freemasonry is not surprising. </p>



<p>All of them constitute what are described as functional groups. The most prominent feature of these functional secret groups is: Convince the followers of their sanctity and that they are an elite carefully chosen to serve lofty ends.</p>



<p>And the truth is, there are no lofty ends except in the minds of those fools who have been tricked.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="has-small-font-size"><strong>by Khaled Hamoud Alshareef</strong></p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote"><p>These Islamist Groups are in contrast to the purpose of Islam&#8230;</p></blockquote>



<p>Since the emergence of political Islamists groups, whether those who adopted a violent or covert approach to it, the founding fathers of every Islamist group have gained a God like status, which qualified them in all cases to assume the leadership position until death, absolute obedience is a basic undisputed right to those leaders. </p>



<p>Though methods may differ from one team to another in the post between acclamation and secret election, or even inheritance as is the case with the Sufi orders, which is attributed by specialists in studying these gatherings, due to the different directives and goals for which each organization was created.</p>



<p>The matter is sometimes governed by the nature of the organization as well, whether secret or covert, or if the two are together, as is the case with the Muslim Brotherhood for example in addition to the form of the organization and the method of selecting members, whether by secret recruitment or other methods, the powers enjoyed by leaders in Islamic organizations, especially jihadist ones, differ, although everyone has almost the same status.</p>



<p>According to what the former leader of the “Egyptian Jihad” Nabil Naim says, while indicating that the leader has a central and authoritarian role in the whole matter. </p>



<p><strong>The beginning &#8220;The Seed of Satan to Establish the Islamist ideology to revive the Caliphate&#8221;</strong></p>



<p>Before the Arab societies knew the Islamic parties in their current form after the wave of the Arab Spring, the Palestinian judge Taqi al-Din al-Nabhani established &#8220;Hizb ut-Tahrir&#8221; in the early fifties of the past century, based in Jerusalem.</p>



<p>Al-Nabhani was planning his party to be the &#8220;spearhead&#8221; for the restoration of the Islamic caliphate, and for that it set rules for a tight list of positions in which the positions would be hierarchical but like other Islamist groups he was plagued by internal disputes, and a clash with the central governments, in addition to poor visibility and lack of resources.</p>



<p>The party did not differ much in the internal leadership gradients. Since its founding in 1953. </p>



<p>Al-Nabhani considered himself &#8220;the founding prince&#8221; and remained the leader of the party until his death in 1977, and despite the party&#8217;s setting of specific mechanisms for leadership, it did not protect it from cracking, and differences broke out quickly between Al-Nabhani and his closest deputies – Dawood Hamdan and Nimr Al-Masry.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://millichronicle.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Nabbahani-1.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-9514" srcset="https://media.millichronicle.com/2020/04/15120927/Nabbahani-1.jpeg 1024w, https://media.millichronicle.com/2020/04/15120927/Nabbahani-1-300x169.jpeg 300w, https://media.millichronicle.com/2020/04/15120927/Nabbahani-1-768x432.jpeg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption><em>Taqi Al-Nabahani/FILE PHOTO</em></figcaption></figure></div>



<p>The members who participated in the group establishment protested the founding emir’s desire to infiltrate Syria, in order to be a safe haven for those being prosecuted in the rest of the Arab countries, and thus the group failed in its first test after Al-Masry and others left the party.</p>



<p>After his death the party was brought as an offshoot into the fold of the Muslim Brotherhood.</p>



<p>The constitution of the Internal Liberation Party, consisting of 187 articles, divides the countries of the Islamic world into emirates. Each emirate is governed by a committee composed of several people called the &#8220;state committee&#8221;, and there are other committees, each of which supervises a specific city or region called &#8220;the local committee.&#8221;</p>



<p>The party shall be named the head of the committee in each country by the accredited person, and all committees shall follow the leadership committee, which is chaired by the head of the party, in accordance with the internal group laws.</p>



<p>The Muslim Brotherhood benefited from this model, and when the party was banned in many countries the followers swiftly moved into the complete fold of the Muslim Brotherhood except in Lebanon as a shell of its former self.</p>



<p>&#8220;The Muslim Brotherhood&#8221; influence is the driving force of the Murshid selection.</p>



<p>Internal conflicts led to the near downfall of the Muslim Brotherhood in the 1950s, and this been suppressed ever since, Alhudaibi assumed the absolute control of the group&#8217;s reins.</p>



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large is-resized"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" src="https://millichronicle.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/img_20200415_1136287431422196709595759.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-9503" width="402" height="275" srcset="https://media.millichronicle.com/2020/04/15083647/img_20200415_1136287431422196709595759.jpg 280w, https://media.millichronicle.com/2020/04/15083647/img_20200415_1136287431422196709595759-130x90.jpg 130w" sizes="(max-width: 402px) 100vw, 402px" /><figcaption><em>Alhudaibi/FILE PHOTO</em></figcaption></figure></div>



<p>He took over the group in a difficult time since he had to play an elaborate game of alliances and betrayals with Gamal Abdel Nasser plus the rising of the secular Pan Arabs in Syria and Iraq who despised the Muslim Brotherhood.</p>



<p>Although the Brotherhood’s General System Document, issued in 1982, gave its members the right to choose their leaders, Article 34 of the Brotherhood’s Articles of Association eliminates this principle whereby the Murshid’s selection is limited to the founding body of the MB, which makes up the General Assembly of the Guidance Bureau, and stipulates that the Murshid must also be from the constituent body, and be a working member of it for a period of 15 years.</p>



<p>The group&#8217;s internal regulations stipulate the principle of trust vote cycle every six years, but this did not happen for renewal of trust in the Murshid who continued by acclamation, until 2010, when Muhammad Mahdi Akef stepped down as the group was stepping up its politics.</p>



<p>The group was aiming to be appealing to the West, many prominent members of the group left the political scene despite taking the lead in the covert scene, most notably former deputy leader Muhammad Habib, Abdel-Moneim Abu al-Fotouh, and al-Kharbawi, and Kamal al-Hilbawi.</p>



<p>Muhammad Badi, succeeded his close friend of the former Murshid , Muhammad Mahdi Akef, both were students of the Muslim Brotherhood spiritual father Sayyid Qutb, who was executed by the Egyptian Government under Gamal Abdel Nasser in a military trial in Egypt in 1965.</p>

<p><strong>The Sheikhdom</strong></p>



<p>The mystic inheritance of fraud and a financial driven spirituality anxiety is not known to the hearts of the Sufi sheikhs as a way; not because they have a spiritual state that deepens the feeling of reassurance within them &#8211; as they describe themselves, but because they guarantee their absolute loyalty to the utmost degree, under the clause of blind obedience from the aspirant to the Sheikh of his method. And among the Murids, a few turned away from the swarm of blind obedience.</p>



<p>None dared to discuss spiritual matters and faith with their Sheikh. Regarding the Sufi orders, which are Soufisum is one of the most widespread religious organizations in the Islamic world, things are a bit different and unique if I dare say.</p>



<p>Unlike the Muslim Brotherhood, the Sufi methods, which are the oldest &#8220;Sunni&#8221; gatherings apparently, do not have hierarchical administrative structures, and the principle of inheritance is dominated by leadership, but this is considered an alien principle to these groups is mystical spiritual in nature similar to what was in the Ottoman Empire and the Mogul empire in later stages.</p>



<p>&#8220;At the beginning of the establishment, the Sufi orders did not adapt the principle of inheritance in the succession of their leaders , so that Abu Al-Hassan Al-Shazly founder of the most widespread Sufi orders in Egypt and the world was not succeeded by one of his sons.&#8221;</p>



<p><strong>Diaphragm a unique case </strong></p>



<p>The method of selection is almost the same in most of the Sufi orders except in the Al-Ghazafiya method, which is one of the methods emanating from the Shadhliya, and it was founded by the Mauritanian Sufi Muhammad al-Aghazif bin Al-Daoudi.</p>



<p>This method is distinguished in that its sheikh is chosen from those who fulfill the conditions of knowledge and integrity, but opponents of this method in choosing leadership believe that inheritance saves the Sufi paths from divisions and protects them from conflicts.</p>

<p>The Sufi movement armed fighters in Africa and many other countries of the world, are large forces practicing armed action, the most important of which are three armed movements, such as the organization of the Sunnis and the Jama&#8217;at in Somalia, the Army of the Moridian method in the Senegal, and the Army of the Naqshbandi Order in Iraq, which fought The American invasion of Iraq and then formed alliances with the ISIS to fight it later on.</p>



<p>The men who lay claim to God-hood: the absolute dominance of the spiritually over life and politics. Religious reference is a Shiite concept that means the return of Shi&#8217;a Muslims to those who reached the rank of ijtihad and scholarly.</p>



<p><strong>The Ayatollahs</strong></p>



<p>The Ayatollahs claim all power in deriving legal rulings, and who became eligible for the position of Ifta, presidency, parliament, the council of scholars who select the Ayatollah&#8217;s successors. Ayatollah&#8217;s reserve the absolute right to voice his opinions in jurisprudence in a book called the practical message expressed as (religious reference) or (Grand Ayatollah) In the Shi&#8217;a term, Shiites refer to Marjia or references to tradition in order to know the jurisprudential rulings.</p>



<p>The influence of the Ayatollah extend to interference in political and social issues, as has happened repeatedly in the history of the Shiite authority. And the reference is a student of religious sciences who studied in the seminary (Najaf and Qom often).</p>



<p>What the Shiite Hadith books narrated from Imam al-Mahdi, the last of the Shi&#8217;a imams, from his saying: “As for the incidents that occur, refer to the narrators of our conversation, for they are my Hajj against you and I am the Argument of God.&#8221;</p>



<p>Therefore the Ayatollah means the word of God, they are considered a physical embodiment of God&#8217;s word, God&#8217;s word is absolutel, thus the Ayatollah&#8217;s are absolute.</p>



<p>These Islamist Groups are in contrast to the purpose of Islam, to worship God in a very intimate relationship between God and the believers of God&#8217;s monotheism.</p>
