Statement by the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan on the Martyrdom of Dr. Ismail Haniyeh, Political Leader of Hamas

In the name of Allah, the Most Compassionate and the Most Merciful
مِنَ المُؤْمِنِينَ رِجَالٌ صَدَقُوا مَا عَاهَدُوا اللهَ عَلَيْهِ فَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ قَضَى نَحْبَهُ وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَنْتَظِرُ وَمَا بَدَّلُوا تَبْدِيلاً. (الاحزاب ۲۳ اية) صدق الله العظيم.
It is with profound sorrow that we received the news of the martyrdom of Dr. Ismail Haniyeh, the political leader of the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), who was martyred in an attack in Tehran last night.
Indeed, to Allah we belong and to Him we shall return.
Martyr Ismail Haniyeh was a distinguished, wise, and resolute Palestinian leader who made significant sacrifices in his successful struggle and Jihad, fulfilling his commitment in this manner.
For a Muslim and a fighter, martyrdom represents a tremendous victory; he has succeeded and left behind a legacy of resistance, selflessness, patience, perseverance, struggle, and practical sacrifice for his followers.
We extend our heartfelt condolences to his grieving family, the leadership of Hamas, and the Mujahideen who continue to resist the Zionist invaders. We pray that Allah Almighty grants martyr Haniyeh eternal paradise and bestows patience and strength upon his family and all the Mujahideen.
The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan regards defending Hamas and the sacred land of Palestine as both an Islamic and humanitarian duty. We strongly condemn the atrocities, bombings, and genocide perpetrated by the Zionist regime against Palestinian Muslims as egregious crimes against humanity. We consider the martyrdom of this great figure as a significant loss to the Islamic Ummah and the Jihadist cause.
We reiterate our call to influential parties, particularly within the Islamic and Arab world, to intensify their efforts to thwart the Zionist invasion and its associated atrocities.
The ongoing crimes of the Zionist regime will undoubtedly lead to further instability in the region and its countries, with the resulting disturbances and adverse outcomes falling squarely on the shoulders of the invading Zionists and their supporters.
The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan
