There is no doubt that ever since the advent of Islam, this Deen (way of life) has faced severe attacks by the Kaafir crusaders and the Munaafiqeen (hypocrites). This is something that Allah (SWT) has preordained and will continue until the Day of Judgement. Allah (SWT) says: "They (the disbelievers) wish to extinguish Allah's Light (the Sharee'ah and Deen of Islam) with their mouths, but Allaah will not allow except that His Light should be perfected even though the Kaafiroun (disbelievers) hate (it)." (EMQ at-Tawbah, 9: 32)

 And He (SWT) also says: "O you who believe! Take not as (your) Bitaanah (advisors, consultants, protectors, helpers, friends, etc.) those outside your religion (i.e. the pagans, Jews, Christians, non-Muslims and hypocrites etc.) since they will not fail to do their best to corrupt you. They desire to harm you severely. Hatred has already appeared from their mouths, but what their breasts conceal is far worse. Indeed we have made plain to you the Aayaat (proofs, evidences, verses) if you understand." (EMQ Aali-'Imraan, 3: 118)

Therefore, Allah (SWT) informs us in the Qur'aan that the aims of the disbelievers is to distort (and extinguish) Islam, "They wish to extinguish the light of Allah by their mouths…", and to corrupt and severely harm the believers by using all forms of violence, whether physical, verbal (by the media) or even via the use of their puppets i.e. the hypocrites (apostate rulers and fake "Islamic" organisations), which nowadays has been one of the most successful ways in which the enemy has succeeded in its attack against Islam and Muslims.

Indeed, had it not been for these hypocrites who allow the crusaders to use the land, air and sea of the Muslims to direct an all-out assault against the innocent people of Afghanistan, Palestine, Iraq etc. the disbelievers would still be dreaming of how they could occupy Muslim land.

Their war against Muslims in Muslim land is more physical, still often using the hypocrites to do their dirty work, such as the Saudi, Iraqi and Pakistani apostate police forces; whereas their war against Muslims in the West is more indirect, praising us in our face whilst stabbing us in our back. For this reason, the Muslims living in the West have become completely blind to the international crusade against Islam and Muslims. In fact, the disbelievers have won over the majority of Muslims just by offering them some dunyaa (worldly temptations), such as benefits, community centres and mosques.

By giving us so-called "Islamic" channels and radio stations, the Muslims have become completely blind, often saying "How can these people be at war with us when we can practice Islam here more than in Muslim countries?" Dear brothers and sisters, these channels, television programmes and radio stations are no more than an implicit (explicit for those who are on the guidance from their Lord) attack on Islam and Muslims.

And the Islam Channel is no exception; promoting free-mixing, mortgages, voting for man-made law, joining the police force and military of the Kuffaar, all of which are prohibited in Islam and can even make one an apostate (Kaafir). It is a duty upon all Muslims to condemn these evil and twisted programmes and television channels, as forbidding the munkar (evil) is one of the attributes of a Mu'min (believer).

As for "Islam" Channel and any other broadcast of the secular "Muslims", we advise you all not to increase the numbers of Ahl ul-Bid'ah (the people of innovation) by sitting with them or helping them in anyway, as Allah (SWT) has prohibited this. These people are the hypocrites of today and one of the enemies from within. Condemn them by any means you are capable of, whether by issuing leaflets or by phoning them directly. Remember, that forbidding the evil is not something which is recommended or permissible, rather it is an obligation.
