The questioner: And by the way, have you heard that Abd al-Rahman Abd al-Khaliq, before the Gulf fitnah, issued a document in which he spoke about Saddam Hussein and that he is suitable for the caliphate, and so on? Have you heard of this, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh : No, I heard of it. As for his being suitable for the caliphate, I did not hear that. But when he overcame the Shi'ah, they issued a statement praising him. As for his nominating him for the caliphate, I have not come across this. In any case, our brother 'Abd al-Rahman 'Abd al-Khalq, perhaps you know that he was a student at the university, and he originally comes from the Muslim Brotherhood. There, at the university, he absorbed the Salafi methodology, and Allah benefited the people of Kuwait greatly through him. But in the end, he turned to political work, and the benefit in terms of da'wah (calling others to Islam) ceased. He issued some letters and books that follow the path of the Muslim Brotherhood and the like of them.
The questioner : The Muslim Brotherhood.
The Shaykh : And political work.
The questioner : The Muslim Brotherhood.
The Shaykh : Yes, yes, and he supports political work. And I read a letter of his in this regard, containing very serious words that reveal what the political preachers are upon, which is what we always say: that they proceed from the premise that the end justifies the means. He gave an example that can be considered a clear explanation of what we accuse them of, namely that they proceed from this premise that the end justifies the means. He said, "It is necessary for the Muslim in this time to commit some of the forbidden things."
The questioner: There is no power or might except by Allah, and this is what others among us said in ... .
The Shaykh : Like this.
The questioner: Yes.
The Shaykh : He wrote this in the letter.
The questioner : He said this in its meaning, meaning...
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner: For example, what is wrong with the Muslim Brotherhood? If they are in a state of sin, then now they are coming out ... like this, meaning he says ... .
The Shaykh : Yes, Allah is the One to be sought for help.
The questioner : There is no power and no strength except with Allah, O Shaykh Muhammad Suroor. Meaning, did you look at and examine his creed completely?
The Shaykh : No, I heard of it. As for his being suitable for the caliphate, I did not hear that. But when he overcame the Shi'ah, they issued a statement praising him. As for his nominating him for the caliphate, I have not come across this.
