Free Babar Ahmad Petition

As-salamu `alaykum wa rahmatullah

 

For many of you internet users, this may not be news to you but judging by the apparent numbers, this news hasn't reached the majority of Muslims in the UK.

The case of Babar Ahmad has been ongoing for 8 years now. He is the longest detained-without-trial prisoner in the UK, and the community is trying to stop his extradition to the US where he faces life in a supermax prison. UK courts do not want him on criminal charges, rather it is the USA who wants to extradite him to their soil and try him under their system. Currently the European High Court has halted his extradition as there are fears his imprisonment and solitary confinement in US Supermax prisons may amount to torture (please see video below for more info).

NOW… All we need is 100,000 signatures. All we are asking for is 100,000 signatures on a petition in order for his case to be debated in UK Parliament and for him to be put on trial in the UK and not the US. Please let's all do our bit and sign the petition; it takes no more than 20 seconds.

Link for petition: www.letsgetjustice.com

Deadline: 10th November.

Sign for yourself, and for those of you with family members, please sign on their behalf too (I know most of you have at least 3 email address, so use them for others!).

Technicals:

- Only UK residents can sign the petition. For those of you outside of UK, please forward this to others.

- Once you've signed the petition, please go to your inbox and click on the verification link. 

- Your personal info such as the address and email won't be displayed online.

Bi-tawfiq, may Allah free all political prisoners. Ameen

Al-Tirmidhi HadithHadith 2482 Narrated by AbuHurayrah  (May Allah be pleased with him)
Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) used to say, " O Allah, grant me benefit in what Thou hast taught me, teach me what will benefit me, and increase my knowledge. Praise be to Allah in all circumstances. I seek refuge in Allah from the state of those who go to Hell."
Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah transmitted it, Tirmidhi saying this is a tradition whose isnad is gharib.

 

Transliteration:an Abi Hurairah (radiya Allahu anhu) qaal:
qaala Rasul Allah (salla Allahu alayhi wa sallam): "Allahumma infa'ni bima 'allamtani, wa allimni maa yanfa'oni wa zidni 'ilman, alhamdulillahi alaa kolli haal, wa a'odtho billahi min haali ahlil naar."
