In the name of God, the most gracious, the most merciful

It has become the norm, or to say for the sake of accuracy, we have had the habit of measuring the progress of nations and their civilizations by material achievements and gains, which has made us limit the elements of our progress to the extent to which we have acquired things, according to Malik Bennabi’s expression, at the level of individuals, such that progress is limited to some material manifestations, such as a luxury car. And the villa and expensive clothes… or at the level of countries, such that the developed country is the country that has factories, airports, highways, universities, and… Perhaps the most important result of this usual perception among us, and among other countries whose people are impressed by the material progress of the West and the East alike, is the alienation seen among Most segments of society at various levels, poor and rich, rulers and ruled…which is embodied in the rush to throw themselves into the arms of this West, or that East, without realizing the consequences of this joining, or to say the consequences of this loyalty using the Qur’anic expression, knowing that reality demonstrates daily the presence of All the characteristics of a pure hypocrite in the dealings of the polytheist West and the atheist East with everyone who rushes to support them, if he does not adhere to their faith, which the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, identified in the agreed-upon hadith: “Four qualities: Whoever has them in him is a pure hypocrite, and whoever has one of them in him is a pure hypocrite.” There was a trait of hypocrisy in him until he abandoned it: if he was trusted, he betrayed, if he spoke, he lied, if he made a covenant, he betrayed, and if he quarreled, he became unjust. There is no doubt that the fate of the one who follows the one whose qualities these are, will be nothing but clear loss, similar to the fate of those who take Satan as a guardian, in accordance with the words of God Almighty in Surah An-Nisa: “And whoever takes Satan as a guardian instead of God, he has certainly suffered a clear loss (119). He promises them and makes them wish, but Satan does not promise them anything but delusion. (120) This is because, like Satan, they promise and make promises to those they are in charge of, but what they promise is nothing but delusion.
We will not be far from the truth if we say that the enemies of Islam, from the East and West alike, follow the path of Satan in promising and wishing those who are loyal to them among those who are included in the category of Muslims. We cite, for example but not limited to, the promise of the Palestinians to establish a state on the 1967 borders despite the unfairness of this promise to the point. If it is achieved, and the promise to bring democracy and freedom to Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Egypt, Sudan, Libya, and Tunisia…, and the usurping entity promised to recognize the Moroccanity of the Sahara, and the United States promised to open a consulate in the city of Dakhla in the Moroccan Sahara after the public normalization process that took place in Morocco by a group of Criticism from inside and outside, in addition to France offering one leg and delaying another without explicitly recognizing the Moroccanity of the Sahara… All these promises and many others are nothing more than “like a mirage in a valley, which the thirsty person thinks is water, until when he comes to it he finds it nothing” (An-Nour, verse 39).
If the reasons for Muslims’ continued loyalty to the enemies of their religion, the infidels and atheists, and those like them who “say with their mouths what is not in their hearts” are multiple, then it is most likely that their roots lie in a disease of the heart, which is embodied, as I mentioned previously, in psychological defeat and weakness of character, which leads to To expect harm and evil without exhausting the effort to prevent them, which leads to making the decision to rush to them for fear of being afflicted by a disaster. Perhaps the application of the rule of “the lesson is in the generality of the word, not in the specific reason” regarding verse 52 of Surah Al-Ma’idah, where God Almighty says: “And you will see those in whose hearts is a disease hastening about, saying, ‘We fear lest some calamity befall us, so perhaps God will bring about us Then came the conquest or an order from him, and they proceeded in the morning as they had proceeded. They regret within themselves. It proves beyond doubt that the decision to hasten to wage war against Islam is doomed to regret and clear loss.
Based on the above, and given that the relationship of human beings with each other in general, and the relationship of Muslims with other nations in particular, is imposed by the necessities of life, this relationship must be organized within the framework of an integrated and balanced exchange of interests and resources, if it is to continue in a way that achieves peace and actual tolerance between people. Peoples and nations. Since the forces of arrogance only believe in the weakness of peoples, and the exploitation of their material and moral resources, the only and only solution for the oppressed nations, led by the Muslim nation, is to work hard to regain the self-confidence of its people, starting with asceticism in rushing to attack the enemies of the religion, through adopting equality in dealing with them. With them, ending with the independence of the decision in choosing partners who demonstrate a sufficient degree of reliability and credibility, to establish complementary and balanced relationships. Perhaps we find in the nature of Moroccan-French relations based on haste on the part of the Moroccans, political hypocrisy and false promises on the part of France, a model that must be addressed decisively. Perhaps the statement of His Majesty the King, saying: “The Moroccan Sahara file is the glasses through which Morocco looks at the world, and it is the clear and simple standard that measures the sincerity of friendships and the effectiveness of partnerships,” was his intention for this treatment, which is based on the frank recognition of our Sahara. Otherwise, the biggest loser from the tension is This ties is France. However, we were surprised, before this standard was adhered to, by the successive visits of a number of French officials to Morocco, and the applause and praise from a number of secular-oriented platforms, for the return of relations with France to their previous state, if not to say more quickly than before, as if the standards set by His Majesty They have been broken, leaving France’s promises regarding its position on the desert like what the devil promises his friends, and the devil is nothing but arrogance.
History has taught us that whenever Muslims rush their enemies, the result is fragmentation, conflict, and the breaking of their power. On the other hand, the same history provides us with examples of those who prepared and exhausted their means within the framework of belief in the sincerity and effectiveness of God’s promise to grant victory to His loyal servants. We have a living example in the people of Gaza who They upset the balance of material and moral forces in particular, such that a few honest mujahideen were able to upset the accounts of all those who were hastening to attack the Zionists, and their protectors from the West and the East, which confirms that steadfastness in principle and adherence to constants is the basis, and that victory does not come through material gains, as important as they are. But by believing in the cause and sacrificing for it, while relying on God to prepare the equipment and exhaust the reasons.
Finally, I would like to remind you that history bears witness to the fact that the progress of civilizations and the progress of nations has never been through eagerness to acquire things, especially when they come from the enemy, but rather through investing in forming generations capable of taking up the challenge and highlighting their characteristics, and who are prepared to enjoy the world and its pleasures in order to preserve their principles and ideals. For those affiliated with Islam, the beginning of the path will only be by relying on God and believing that the promises of their enemies will be nothing but delusion.
