The prominent figureheads of Jihad generally possess distinct leadership
qualities. They are usually either naturally gifted with these capabilities
or they master them through learning and studying other Jihadi leaders. Due
to their deep sincerity and devotion, these Jihadi leaders are granted with
exceptional divine generosity, support and benevolence as Almighty Allah
says:
Translation: (And as for those who strive to meet Us – We will surely guide
them in Our ways. And verily, ALLAH is with those who do good.)
[Al-Ankaboot:69]
The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan is considered an impregnable front of
Jihad and struggle against international infidelity and tyranny whose
founding founders are by the grace of Almighty Allah bequeathed with
extraordinary proficiency and skills as leaders and guides.
The founder of Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan himself, the late Mullah
Mohammad Umar Mujahid (may his soul rest in peace) was a living anthology of
such leadership qualities. Amidst the battlefield of Jihad and combating
international infidelity, he successfully managed to transfer these lofty
aptitudes of Muslim leadership qualities to several of his Mujahidin brothers
who were his intimate colleagues, struggling together in the thorny path of
establishing the sacred and sovereign system of Allah, the Almighty.
His Excellency, the late Amir-ul-Momineen Mullah Mohammad Umar Mujahid (may
his soul rest in peace) was the spiritual and moral guide of new students of
the Jihadi madrassa [Mujahidin] as well as being their military leader. The
Umari Jihadi Madrassa trained and graduated many high caliber personalities
during his lifetime and under his leadership, each one perfectly capable of
guiding the Muslim masses in the most critical junctures of this era.
It is established religious foundations rather than particular personalities
which play a pivotal role in ideological and Jihadi movements. Everything
here is organized on the basis of Jihad and ideology. Teachings of the Holy
Quran and noble deeds of our Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) and his rightly
guided Caliphs (may Allah be pleased with all of them) are the role models
for the followers of these movements.
The core responsibility of the leadership in such ideological movements is
merely to educate its members and followers both morally and ideologically
and to impart them with spiritual passion and commitment.
Upon founding the Taliban Islamic Movement and establishment of the Islamic
Emirate, his Excellency late Amir-ul-Momineen Mullah Mohammad Umar Mujahid
(may his soul rest in peace) mentored for future leadership several Mujahidin
who displayed foresight and leadership traits, capable of leading this Jihadi
caravan to its goal and destination even in the most critical circumstances
of Jihad and persistent struggle. Such fearless and courageous personalities
who were undaunted by the most difficult of conditions nor influenced by
dangerous temporal or spatial circumstances.
Among these foresighted vigilant personalities and pupils of the enduring
Umari Madrassa is the newly selected leader of the Islamic Emirate, His
Excellency Mullah Akhtar Mohammad Mansur (may Allah safeguard him) who
practically handled leadership affairs of the Islamic Emirate during the
lifetime of late Amir-ul-Momineen (may his soul rest in peace) and was
appointed as the new head (leader) of the Islamic Emirate by Ahl hal wal Aqd
dignitaries of the Islamic Emirate, religious scholars, Jihadi leaders and
various other public figures after the announcement of his (RA) passing away.
Although the new leader of the Islamic Emirate is a well-recognized figure in
all Jihadi spheres whoever to better acquaint his Excellency Mullah Akhtar
Mohammad Mansur to all the Mujahidin of the Islamic Emirate and the general
masses of the Muslim world having affection with the Islamic Emirate, it is
deemed appropriate to write down a few lines about his life and personality.
His Birth:
His
Excellency, Mullah Akhtar Mohammad Mansur s/o Alhaj Mohammad Jan was born in
1347 Hijri (solar) – 1968 Gregorian in Band-i-Taimoor village of Maiwand
district in Kandahar province.
As his family was well-known in the area for their affection for religion and
learning and his father particularly held deep love for knowledge therefore
his top priority for the healthy upbringing of his son was religious
education.
Early Education:
His Excellency Mansur Sahib,
under the guidance of his father assumed his religious education in the
village mosque and joined the local primary school for his early studies at
the age of seven. As he showed signs of wisdom, acumen and insight in his
early childhood, he received special care and attention from his father as
well as all his teachers.
Due to his deep love for learning, he successfully completed his early
education in a considerably short period of time. He left his home in pursuit
of secondary education, joining various bigger distinguished madrassas where
he completed his studies all the while earning a reputation as an intelligent
and honest pupil among his contemporaries due to his innate acumen and
excellent Islamic ethics.
He had not yet begun his higher education when the political control of
Afghanistan fell to the Communists and the Afghan Mujahid nation rose up and
began their Islamic revolution against them.
His Jihadi And Political Struggle:
Due to the Soviet
invasion of Afghanistan in 1978, the Afghan Mujahid masses began their
Islamic resistance (Jihad) against them.
His Excellency, Mullah Akhtar Mohammad Mansur, who was now in his mid-teen
years and had intended to complete his religious education left them
unfinished and began waging armed Jihad in the middle years of the Russian
occupation due his Jihadi passion.
But due to his deep love for learning, he would continue his studies under
the supervision of his benevolent teachers upon returning from Jihadi fronts.
It was with this sheer resolve that he completed his second to last year of
studies and before beginning the final year studies, he left for the
frontlines once and for all.
His Excellency Mansur Sahib who had just entered his early twenties was a
strong and courageous young man who had purposely assumed armed Jihad as a
valiant Mujahid to defend his creed and country against the invading Soviets
and their internal stooge communists.
In 1985 he chose his Jihadi front in Kandahar by joining the famous Jihadi
group of late commander Qari Azizullah and continued his Jihad against the
occupying (former) Soviet forces and their internal communist puppets in
Pashmul area of Panjwai district under the supervision of a well-known Jihadi
figure Alhaj Mullah Mohammad Hassan Akhond, who would later be selected as
deputy head of the ministerial council during the rule of the Islamic
Emirate. The Jihadi group of late Qari Azizullah was associated with the
Islamic Revolutionary Movement of eminent Jihadi leader late Moulavi Mohammad
Nabi Muhammadi. After the martyrdom of Qari Azizullah, this group was linked
under the leadership of Commander Mullah Haji Mohammad with the Islamic Party
of prominent Jihadi leader Moulavi Mohmmad Younun Khalis.
His Excellency, Mansur Sahib actively participated in various military
operations against the former Soviet occupying forces and their internal
stooges. In 1987, during a direct assault on a strategic Russian military
post in Sanzary area of Panjwai district in Kandahar, he was injured with
thirteen wounds on his body and later recovered by the grace of Almighty
Allah. He was injured for a second time in May 1997 at Mazar-i-Sharif airport
during the reign of the Islamic Emirate and subsequently captured by the
opponent forces.
His foundational role in the Islamic Movement of Taliban:
After the collapse of communist regime inside Afghanistan and the outbreak of
civil war in 1992, Mansur Sahib laid down his arms just like all the sincere
Mujahidin and did not support any party in the illegitimate war for power.
His Excellency Mansur Sahib, who was a renowned Mujahid at the time,
abandoned all factional activities resembling other well-known local Jihadi
and military personalities like the late Mullah Mohammad Rabbani, late Haji
Mullah Mohammad and late Mullah Bor Jan. He started living an ordinary life
and began engaging in various educational and training activities.
In 1994 when the Islamic Movement of Taliban was founded by His Excellency
Amir-ul-Momineen late Mullah Mohammad Umar Mujahid (may his soul rest in
peace), Mansur Sahib played a crucial role in the organization and
development of this movement. Due to his Jihadi and administrative
proficiencies, he was tasked major responsibilities by the then head of the
Islamic Movement of Taliban which are as following:
After the conquest of Kandahar province and subsequent successes of Taliban
Islamic Movement in south western zone, His Excellency Amir-ul-Momineen late
Mullah Mohammad Umar Mujahid (may his soul rest in peace) appointed Mansur
Sahib as the director general of Kandahar Airport due to the trust he placed
in the administrative and Jihadi talents displayed by him.
When Kandahar province fell to the Taliban, he was given the responsibility
of air force and air defense system of Kandahar.
After the conquest of the capital Kabul in 1996, he was appointed as the
minister of aviation and tourism.
Simultaneously with heading the ministry, he was placed in charge of the
Emirate's air-force and air-defense in the ministry of defense on the basis
of a special decree of late Amir-ul-Momineen.
While heading the aviation and tourism ministry of Afghanistan, he completed
a number of new and reconstruction projects which are briefly discussed in
the following lines:
When the capital city of Kabul came under the control of the Islamic Emirate,
the main buildings and premises of aviation ministry inside this city were
heavily damaged due to the internal factional fighting. Due to his
reconstruction policy, Mansur Sahib successfully managed to repair all the
damaged planes of this ministry and rebuilt the main airbases.
At that time the Islamic Emirate was facing serious financial problems on top
of international pressures and sanctions but Mansur Sahib managed to renovate
Kabul International Airport and its related buildings despite the inapt
financial circumstances. Then he equipped the International Ariana Afghan
Airlines for national and international flights in accordance with
international standards.
After that he primed the airports of Kandahar, Herat, Nangarhar,
Mazar-i-Sharif and Kunduz provinces for all kinds of civil and military
flights and furnished them with advanced equipment.
On top of several reconstructive services in various civil and military
fields of the Islamic Emirate, his biggest accomplishment was his repairing a
great asset of Afghanistan (the air force), its damaged planes and mostly
destroyed airports.
He arranged 24-hour flight facility inside Afghanistan and after a long delay
of several years, for the first time thousands of Afghans were able to
perform the Hajj pilgrim via Afghan Ariana Airlines.
Afghanistan which once had advanced defensive air capabilities on a regional
level was totally paralyzed and put out of service due to the Russian
invasion and subsequent internal factional fighting to the extent that some
of the planes were dismantled and their parts sold as scrap metal. However it
was Mansur Sahib's indefatigable efforts which put all these damaged planes
back into service.
Respected Mullah Akhtar Mohammad Mansur Sahib who tenured as the minister of
aviation through the entire rule of Islamic Emirate put immense efforts into
reviving and developing Afghanistan's ministry of civil aviation.
Here we would like to present a few more examples of his work:
For the better guidance and control of transit flights of other countries
passing through the airspace of Afghanistan, advanced aviation control
systems (ویست دستگاه) were installed in all the prominent international
airports like Kabul, Kandahar, Nangarhar, Mazar-i-Sharif and Herat which can
still be found there today. This system resulted in millions of dollars of
revenue as transit tax from international flights via Afghanistan.
According to a report published at the time by the aviation and air defense
departments, nearly 44 different transport aircrafts and fighter helicopters
which were damaged and put out of use were renovated by Mansur Sahib and then
utilized by the air aviation and air forces for a long time. Their details
are as follow:
Transport planes:
Three N-12 planes
Four N-32 planes
Two N-26 planes
Fighter Jets:
Eight Jet Mig-21
Three Jet Su M420
Five Jet Su 22
Helicopters:
Six Mi-8
Eight Mi-35
Five Al-39
Russian airplanes type 41 and n24 as well as American Boeing Company aircraft
used by Ariana International were also renovated in foreign countries and
used for public transportation. He also purchased five Russian made transport
planes in the open market.
In addition to these purchased and renovated aircrafts Afghanistan had tens
of Jets, transport planes and helicopters already in service, playing the
role of a well-built air force. Instances of its activity at hand was their
continuous aerial support and supply to Kunduz and other far flung areas
where Mujahidin had bases, active frontlines or were besieged as well as
their regular national and international flights to all major cities of the
country and multiple foreign destinations. But in the wake of the brutal
American invasion and indiscriminate bombing of our major airports, this
fundamental national asset was completely destroyed.
During the reign of the Islamic Emirate, Mullah Akhtar Mohammad Mansur was
imprisoned in northern Afghanistan for over six months due to the treachery
of General Abdul Malik but by the grace of Almighty Allah, he was released
when General Malik fled from Faryab province upon the resurfacing of General
Dostum, opening a window of opportunity for the release of detainees from
prisons.
Armed Resistance Against The American Invasion:
After the American invasion of Afghanistan on 7th October 2001, Mansur Sahib
began his armed resistance against them. In his Jihadi lifetime, this period
was fraught with difficulties and challenges for Mansur Sahib.
Besides being a member of the supreme leading council of Islamic Emirate, he
was given the additional responsibility of Jihadi in-charge of Kandahar
province by the late Amir-ul-Momineen (may his soul rest in peace).
Like other provinces of Afghanistan, Kandahar was in need of a strong,
experienced and sincere Jihadi commander because the Americans planned and
launched all their military strategies against Mujahidin for the entire south
west zone from Kandahar. This was the reason that following Helmand, the
second largest contingent of American, Canadian and other foreign troops were
based in Kandahar and the second largest base after Bagram airbase was also
built here.
But due to his Jihadi acumen, Mansur Sahib managed to sketch successful
Jihadi plans against the foreign invading troops in Kandahar, rendering their
well-known generals and distinguished military planners of the time inept in
its combat and prevention.
Mansur Sahib's Jihadi ingenuity saw him take charge in drawing and managing
Jihadi plans for the entire south-western zone of Afghanistan after due
consultations with the Jihadi in-charges of neighboring provinces, carrying
out successful fatal attacks against the invading crusaders in Kandahar as
well as in Uruzgan, Zabul and Helmand provinces.
Mujahidin of the Islamic Emirate extraordinarily managed to break the heavily
fortified Kandahar central prison in the years 2003 and 2008, freeing over
one thousand and five hundred captive Mujahidin each time from the brutal
hands of the enemy. These events also took place when Mansur Sahib was the
in-charge of Kandahar.
As the Deputy Head of the Islamic Emirate:
In 2007 when the former deputy head of the Islamic Emirate Alhaj Mullah
Obaidullah Akhund was arrested, the late Amir-ul-Momineen (may his soul rest
in peace) appointed Mullah Akhtar Mohammad Mansur as the second deputy
alongside Mullah Baradar Akhond, the deputy head of the Islamic Emirate, and
instructed him to concurrently continue his responsibility as the Jihadi
in-charge of Kandahar province as it was a central fighting front against the
foreign invaders.
In 2010 when the deputy head of Islamic Emirate Alhaj Mullah Obaidullah
Akhund was martyred in the detention of Pakistani forces and Mullah Abdul
Ghani Baradar, second deputy head of the Islamic Emirate was arrested by
joint American and Pakistani forces in the city of Karachi, the late
Amir-ul-Momineen Mullah Mohammad Umar Mujahid (may his soul rest in peace)
appointed Mansur Sahib as the deputy head and general in-charge of all
operational activities of the Islamic Emirate.
It was a time when the Jihadi resistance was facing tough challenges in
Afghanistan as 30,000 extra troops were deployed by the Obama administration
and over a hundred thousand foreign invading forces equipped with
state-of-the-art technology and supported by 350,000 internal mercenary
forces were actively fighting Mujahidin in each and every corner of our
country.
On the one hand, it was nearly impossible for the leader of the Islamic
Emirate, late Mullah Mohammad Umar Mujahid (may his soul rest in peace) to
appear and guide the resistance militarily due to the critical security
situation and on the other hand, the military and administrative vacuum in
Jihadi fronts tipped the balance of resistance in the favor of the enemy.
There was huge military pressure on the Mujahidin on top of the increasing
political and propaganda pressures. Many Jihadi in-charges were martyred on
the battle field and a number of them were arrested.
In those most daunting circumstances, the late Amir-ul-Momineen Mullah
Mohammad Umar Mujahid (may his soul rest in peace) placed the enormous task
of managing Mujahidin against the invading crusaders on the shoulders of
Mansur Sahib and appointed no other deputy to support him.
Respected Mansur Sahib, with the divine help of Almighty Allah and aid of the
leading council of the Islamic Emirate, successfully managed to control and
lead the ongoing armed resistance in such an admirable way that no leadership
vacuum was ever felt by the Mujahidin.
It was the year 2010 which would prove to be the most fatal and costly year
for foreign crusading forces inside Afghanistan. Mujahidin managed to carry
out their most fatal campaign against the enemy during the span of that year,
forcing them to confess to the deaths of 770 foreign soldiers.
Similarly under the successful leadership of Mansur Sahib, Mujahidin managed
to liberate vast areas of our beloved homeland from the enemy and establish
an organized Islamic system of life in them.
After The Passing Away Of Amir-ul-Momineen Mohammad Umar Mujahid (may his
soul rest in peace):
On 23rd April 2013, when Amir-ul-Momineen Mullah Mohammad Umar Mujahid passed
away, some members of the leading council of the Islamic Emirate, authentic
scholars, envoys and messengers of late Mullah Mohammad Umar Mujahid and his
permanent colleagues who lived with him till the last moments of his life
pledged their allegiance to Mansur Sahib and appointed him as the new leader
of the Islamic Emirate.
Since 2013 was considered the last year of resistance and struggle for
Mujahidin against the foreign invading crusaders therefore several key
members of the supreme leading council of the Islamic Emirate and authentic
religious scholars together decided on concealing the tragic news of passing
away of His Excellency, late Amir-ul-Momineen Mullah Mohammad Umar Mujahid
(may his soul rest in peace) and keep this secret limited to the very few
colleagues who were already informed of this incorrigible loss. One of the
main reasons behind this decision was due to the fact that 2013 was
considered the final year of power testing between the Mujahidin and foreign
invaders who in turn had announced that at the end of 2014, all military
operations by foreign troops would be concluded.
It was for these Jihadi Masaleh (interests/considerations) that this
depressing news was concealed in an extraordinary way up until 30th July
2015.
As The New Selected Amir (Leader) Of The Islamic Emirate:
When the leading council of the Islamic Emirate officially announced the
passing away of late Amir-ul-Momineen Mullah Mohammad Umar Mujahid (may his
soul rest in peace) on 14th Shawwal-ul-Mukarram 1436 Hijra (lunar)
corresponding with 30th July 2015, for the sake of even greater satisfaction
of Mujahidin, Mansur Sahib gave all decision making powers to the leading
council of the Islamic Emirate and religious scholars to decide about his
fate as well as the new leader of the Islamic Emirate. He assured them that
whosoever is appointed as their new leader, he would obey him wholeheartedly.
On this occasion, members of the supreme leading council of the Islamic
Emirate, religious scholars and saints, considered Ahl Hal wal Aqd
(influential and discerning people) decided after prolonged discussions and
giving consideration to interests (of Muslims and Jihad) in the absence of
Mansur Sahib, to appoint him as the new Amir (leader) of the Islamic Emirate
of Afghanistan.
As soon as His Excellency Mullah Akhtar Mohammad Mansur was appointed as the
new leader of the Islamic Emirate, members of leading council of the Islamic
Emirate, heads of all commissions of the Islamic Emirate, director generals
of judiciary and courts, heads of military commissions, intellectuals,
national, Jihadi, political and cultural figures of our country, commanders
of armed forces and all civilian authorities of the Islamic Emirate
unequivocally pledged their allegiance with the newly appointed leader of the
Islamic Emirate. All these military and civilian in-charges and national
dignitaries of our country sent their oaths of allegiance both verbally and
in written form to the publication branch of the cultural commission of the
Islamic Emirate which were subsequently published on the main Alemarah
website.
His Appointment As New Leader From Shariah Point Of View:
Gathering of Ahl Hal wal Aqd to select a leader in Islam is considered to be
the most authentic and reliable procedure by religious scholars and experts
of Islamic political law. The term ‘Ahl Haq wal Aqd' (influential and
discerning people) can be applied to all knowledgeable, experienced and
insightful people which is usually termed as ‘Shura' or council. Three
procedures are generally deduced by deeply penetrating into the various ways
of selection of four pious Caliphs (may Allah be pleased with them) in the
early days of Islam. The first one is candidacy, the second one is selection
and the third one is that of pledging allegiance to someone.
Nomination or candidacy for leadership should not be forwarded by the person
who is going to be selected Amir or leader as the Holy Prophet (peace be upon
him) has said:
إنا والله لا نولي هذا العمل أحدا سألة أو أحدا حرص عليه
)متفق عليه ) (اخرجه البخارى (7149 ) ومسلم ( 1733 )
Translation: I swear by Allah that we will not appoint anyone to this task
(leadership) who has desire or greed for it. (Agreed upon) (narrated by
Bukhari and Muslim).
Nomination must be made by someone for a single individual just like the
nomination of the first Caliph of Islam Hazrat Abu Bakkar Siddique when
Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with all of them) held his hand and
forwarded him for leadership then the companions of the Holy Prophet (peace
be upon him) selected him as their Imam or leader. It can be the nomination
of several persons just like Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him)
nominated some companions for leadership before his martyrdom and then Hazrat
Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) was selected as third Caliph of Islam
among them.
Mullah Akhtar Mohammad Mansur has never nominated himself for leadership
rather he was selected as the only candidate for leadership in the very first
meeting by members of leading council of the Islamic Emirate and religious
scholars. In the second meeting, he plainly declared to the council that he
has no desire for leadership rather he would like to serve the lofty cause of
the Islamic Emirate as an ordinary worker.
But the council nominated him as the only suitable candidate for leadership.
After prolonged discussion of this Shura comprising of religious scholars,
saints and members of the leading council of the Islamic Emirate, all of them
knowledgeable and experienced people of Jihad, he was appointed as the new
leader of the Islamic Emirate. The members of this Shura pledged their
allegiance to him foremost followed by other responsible people, ordinary
Mujahidin and the general masses.
It can confidently be proclaimed that his appointment took place in full
compliance with Islamic Shariah law therefore hundreds of thousands of other
ordinary people from all parts of the country and hundreds of authentic
scholars of the Holy Quran and the Traditions of the Holy Prophet (peace be
upon him) accepted his leadership, labeled it totally legitimate and pledged
their allegiances accordingly.
His Leading And Charismatic Personality:
The newly appointed leader of the Islamic Emirate, His Excellency
Amir-ul-Mumineen Mullah Akhtar Mohammad (Mansur), may Allah safeguard him, is
considered an effective, influential and dominant personality from among the
foundational members of the Islamic Emirate.
He is naturally bequeathed with unique leading and guiding capabilities.
Piety, sincerity, Jihadi vision, political acumen and administrative
qualities in implementing various tasks are characteristics which individuate
him.
His Excellency, Mullah Akhtar Mohammad Mansur thoroughly follows the
footsteps of his predecessor and Jihadi leader, late Mulla Mohammad Umar
Mujahid (may his soul rest in peace) in implementing all the Jihadi
activities of the Islamic Emirate. Safeguarding lofty Jihadi ideals,
liberation of our beloved homeland from foreign occupation and the
implementation of Shariah system therein are the main objectives of his Jihad
and struggle. According to the teachings of the Holy Quran, he carefully
listens to all the useful and constructive advices and suggestions of all
colleagues in executing all minor and major tasks. He tries to assign duties
to competent people and subsequently trusts them thoroughly. He always
recommends to the responsible people to have mercy and pity on the ordinary
masses.
He greatly emphasizes on this point, ''The Islamic Emirate is a common abode
of all Afghans therefore all should be reflected herein.''
His Vision And Ideological Perspectives:
His Excellency, Mullah Akhtar Mohammad Mansur belongs to people of Ahl Sunnah
wal Jama'ah (Sunnah and Consensus) and follows the path of the great Imam
(jurist) Hazrat Abu Hanifa (may Allah bless him).
He is fully conscious of the delicacy and complexity of all contemporary
regional and international politics.
While facing him, one can easily discern his serenity, gravity and dignity.
Simplicity and straightforwardness are his common companions.
He has special interest in studying the role model of our Holy Prophet (peace
be upon him) as well as the lives of his lofty companions (may Allah be
pleased with them). He is always eager and interested to hear about the
military situations of battlefields whenever meeting Mujahidin of the Islamic
Emirate.
Despite all his many Jihadi and administrative activities and
responsibilities, he regularly and keenly follows the media and subsequently
gives distinct meaningful recommendations to Jihadi writers, particularly to
the workers of the cultural and publication department of the Islamic Emirate
of Afghanistan.
His Routine Life And Some Of His Characteristics:
His Excellency, Mullah Mohammad Mansur assumes his day with the recitation of
the Holy Quran. He remains in regular contact with Jihadi fronts and the
military in-charges. He thoroughly checks all the military planning against
the enemy and fully stresses upon all Jihadi commanders to protect the lives
and properties of all civilian masses and to deal with them in sympathetic
and dignified manner.
As a dominant military commander, he treats his Jihadi colleagues, Mujahidin
and ordinary masses in respectful and compassionate manner. He pays full
attention and renders due respect to the words and advices of scholars,
teachers and all elderly people in public and private meetings. He gives
special attention to looking after the orphans and families of Mujahidin who
have laid down their lives in the path of Jihad. He takes due care in all
political matters and carefully listens to views and suggestions of all
discerning people in this regard.
He particularly loves and has interest in marksmanship. He considers the
implementation of Jihadi exercises the most suitable and required sport of
our time.
He speaks less and tries to listen more to other people. He likes and wears
loose, neat and clean clothes. He dislikes and avoids extravagance and
prodigality in dressing, eating and all other needs of everyday life.
The main and foremost purpose of his life is the well-organization of Jihadi
activities and their subsequent follow-up. In this fashion he remains busy
from dawn to dust.
