The emigration and jihad <strong>which</strong> <strong>the</strong> generations <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> mujahids have <strong>of</strong>fered up, as well as<br />

(<strong>the</strong>ir) abandonment <strong>of</strong> (<strong>the</strong>ir) countries and (<strong>the</strong>ir) material gains and interests and shedding<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir blood and destroying <strong>the</strong>mselves in <strong>the</strong> jihad and <strong>the</strong> horrors <strong>which</strong> are associated with<br />

it <strong>will</strong> not vanish into nothing. It <strong>will</strong> have an effect, even if it is after some period <strong>of</strong> time.<br />

In this regard, `Ikrama Ibn Abi Jahl and Sufyan Ibn Harb were speaking with each o<strong>the</strong>r<br />

immediately after <strong>the</strong>ir conversion to Islam. One <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>m said to <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r, "We have<br />

sur<strong>pass</strong>ed <strong>the</strong> people. The Companions <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Messenger <strong>of</strong> God (peace and blessings be<br />

upon him) were tortured and killed and <strong>the</strong>y emigrated, leaving <strong>the</strong>ir homes and <strong>the</strong>ir people,<br />

and <strong>of</strong>fered up <strong>the</strong>ir souls, <strong>the</strong>ir wealth, and immense sacrifices. What do you think?" The<br />

response was, "Arise so that we may begin to fight <strong>the</strong> people <strong>of</strong> unbelief that perchance<br />

God <strong>will</strong> grant us martyrdom and forgive us and upraise our stations." Praise be to God!<br />

The sacrifices and horrors <strong>which</strong> <strong>the</strong> mujahids and <strong>the</strong> believers confronted <strong>will</strong> bear fruit<br />

for <strong>the</strong> generations <strong>which</strong> <strong>will</strong> enter Islam in <strong>the</strong> coming <strong>stage</strong>s, by <strong>the</strong> permission <strong>of</strong> God.<br />

They also yield o<strong>the</strong>r fruit, <strong>which</strong> is that God permits <strong>the</strong>se (horrors) to happen so that <strong>the</strong><br />

enemy commits so many crimes that he completely deserves <strong>the</strong> unmitigated pain that God<br />

<strong>will</strong> afflict him with. Not long ago, <strong>the</strong> Russians descended with <strong>the</strong>ir helicopters upon an<br />

Afghani village whose men were in <strong>the</strong> mountains fighting in <strong>the</strong> jihad. There were only old<br />

men, women, and children in <strong>the</strong> village. They killed <strong>the</strong> old men and <strong>the</strong> children and made<br />

<strong>the</strong> women board <strong>the</strong> aircrafts and <strong>the</strong>y stripped <strong>the</strong>m <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir clo<strong>the</strong>s and threw <strong>the</strong>m, alive,<br />

from <strong>the</strong> planes. When <strong>the</strong> mujahids returned, <strong>the</strong>y took <strong>of</strong>f <strong>the</strong>ir clo<strong>the</strong>s in order to cover<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir women, <strong>the</strong>ir sisters, and <strong>the</strong>ir mo<strong>the</strong>rs. They raised <strong>the</strong>ir palms in prayer against <strong>the</strong><br />

Russians and after a short period <strong>of</strong> time God wiped out many (<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Russians)<br />
