In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Beneficent
Praise be to Allah and prayers and peace be upon the best of God's creations, our Prophet Muhammad, along with his family and righteous companions. And then:
We,
the signatories of this statement, have been exposed to inequitable and
illegal procedure that is contrary to the essential human rights as
well as the state's constitution and legislations, which is the
withdrawal of our nationalities. Actually, the common factor between all
of us is our affiliation as reformists to the Association of Reform
& Social Guidance whose board of directors has been dissolved and,
as a reaction, a case has been filed for lifting the ban imposed on it;
the procedures of litigation are still underway. In addition to this,
some of the undersigned have signed on a petition submitted to the
president of the state demands reformative procedures in the legislative
authority so as to prepare the climate for a wholesome parliamentary
election which brings about a parliament with full authorities later on.
As
we issue this statement, we call on all parties, institutions,
associations, dignitaries and officials concerned with human rights,
both inside and outside the state, to stand with us in this human rights
case, which does not concern us alone, but revokes concern of all the
advocates of rights in this domain of activity as well as those who
would fell prey to this oppressive procedure in the future. In fact,
this case affects the present and the future of our state and its
reputation at the regional and international levels. But, we trust in
Allah first, then in the wisdom of HRH Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the State, and his fellow members of the Federal Supreme Council of the rulers of the Emirates, and the wisdom of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum,
Vice-President and Prime Minister, to stop this unjust action and
responded to this aggression against the citizens of the state. We call
for prompt cancellation of these oppressive measures against the
advocates of reform in the state, and save the destiny of their
families, wives and children, as well as the reformist institutions, all
Islamic Da'wahs, defenders of rights and the freemen nationwide.
It
is enough abuse for the state and its people along with its reputation
internally, regionally and internationally, to be tarnished by
unpatriotic corrupt leaders and advisers in the state security
apparatus, who weave a spider-web of evils, sow the seeds of discord,
and make enemies at home and abroad. We trust in God first, then the
wisdom of the President and his crown-prince and rulers, to remove this
malignant tumor in this apparatus, to save our country from the
destinies of the revolutionary states in the regions due to the
accumulation of these tumors in the security apparatuses of those
countries. God save our country, our people and our society from all
evils, and provide us with sustainable security, safety, stability,
intimacy, love and brotherhood in Allah, and make our country high in
the skies in protecting the rights and raising the white flag of right
in the world.
May Allah bless our Prophet Muhammad, his Family and Companions
