ابو تقوی کابوس آمریکایی‌ها بود/ خاطره آخرین دیدار

S-G of al-Nujaba:

Abu Taqwa was a nightmare for the Americans/ The memory of the last meeting

  

Shaykh al-Kaabi, referring to the role of the military deputy of the al-Nujaba Movement in inflicting strikes on the occupation, recounted the memory of his last meeting with that martyr.

  

According to the website of the representative office of al-Nujaba in Iran – The secretary-general of the al-Nujaba Islamic Resistance Movement, in an interview with the newspaper Iran published in the special issue on martyrs of the Islamic Resistance, expressed the strategies of the Islamic Resistance Axis to play an effective role in the case of Palestine and said that the realization of the revenge of the blood of the martyrs depends on keeping the flame of resistance burning. 

Shaykh Akram al-Kaabi explained how Iraqi groups confront the colonial plans of the United States, and in this regard, he mentioned the personality and jihadi aspects of martyr Abu Taqwa who was recently martyred in an air attack by the invaders. 

Read the description of this conversation in the following interview: 

 

How will the Resistance and the blood of the martyrs bear fruit and will it play a role in the liberation of the noble city of al-Quds? 

The Resistance achieved many results, the most important of which was breaking the United States’ arrogance and dominance over Iraq and neutralizing many sinister projects aimed at destroying Iraq and attacking its culture and sovereignty, and creating a kind of awareness in Iraqi society in the face of the media’s deception that was created by the occupiers to hide and justify their crimes. 

Also, the pure blood that was shed in the treacherous bombings carried out by the United States played an essential role in raising awareness among the people, expanding their revolutionary spirit and fervour, strengthening the warriors in their holy path, continuing the path of the martyrs and achieving the goals they sacrificed for. 

These great sacrifices and these great goals that the Resistance is trying to achieve have turned al-Quds into an ideological symbol of the Resistance, its path and the goal of recapturing from the occupiers for Muslims, and until the fulfillment of the promise of our Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei, regarding the liberation of al-Quds, praying in al-Quds and exalting the word of truth, they do not stop resisting.

 

What is your tactical suggestion to avenge the blood of recent martyrs? How should this revenge be taken and where is its level and threshold? 

The real revenge for the blood of the martyrs, which we adhere to and will never deviate from, is to keep the flame of resistance against the arrogant enemies burning, which every day causes the erosion and failure of their evil projects, kills their mercenaries and soldiers, destroys their capabilities and weakens their authority and influence. 

Despite the existence of some cowards, the slanderous statements of the ignorant and compromisers and the attempt to destroy the goals and face of the Resistance through the media apparatus of the occupation, we will be steadfast in the path of establishing the truth and negating the falsehood. 

 

Why are the enemies in Iraq seeking to suppress the Resistance? 

The enemies came to Iraq to plunder its wealth and assets and turn it into a military headquarters in the heart of the region and protect the existence of Israel. It manoeuvres its colonial forces in a way that reigns terror and humiliates some regional rulers so that they are forced to pay tribute to the United States. 

But the Resistance is an obstacle that stops the movement of their colonial machine and is a winning sword to cut off their subversive projects. Despite the Resistance, the enemies will never see peace and their plans will not go as they want. 

For this reason, at the level of the media and so-called civil organizations, they have prepared many facilities and are recruiting mercenaries for psychological warfare against the Resistance. They also use their military facilities to physically target and destroy the Resistance capabilities. 

Of course, the Resistance is not oblivious and with new skills and methods, it has created a balance of deterrence to repel cultural, propaganda and military attacks.

  

What was an outstanding characteristic of the martyr Abu Taqwa on the battlefield and jihad? 

The martyred commander, Abu Taqwa, was the military deputy of the al-Nujaba Movement. He had many qualifications and experiences. At the university level, he had a master’s degree in political science. On a spiritual level, he was a role model for the warriors, and on a military level, he had completed many military and strategic courses. 

He was among the first mujahidin fighters who confronted the occupiers since the United States entered Iraq and inflicted painful blows on them with bombs and rockets, and finally at the end of the first period of Iraqi occupation, they left the country humiliated and defeated.

Abu Taqwa then took command of the 12th Brigade of the Popular Mobilization Forces and fought many battles against the United States-backed Daesh. He moved ahead of his forces and fought without any fatigue or weakness. 

After that, he simultaneously became the military deputy of al-Nujaba and the deputy commander of the Popular Mobilization Forces’ operations in Baghdad. 

He played a central role in the operation to support the Iraqi Resistance in Operation al-Aqsa Storm and ended his mission with a happy ending and martyrdom at the hands of the most hated and wicked people of God.

  

What was the reason for the assassination of Abu Taqwa by the Americans? And explain the consequences after his martyrdom. 

The Americans knew very well who Abu Taqwa was and they knew that he was a nightmare that they had to get rid of. He hurt their bodies with the blows of Islamic Resistance. Therefore, they formed committees and forces to pursue and target him. 

Considering that he is a son of the battlefield, Abu Taqwa did not get scared by this news and refused to stop his work but continued his activities. While the sky of Iraq is almost full of enemy drones that are searching for fighters. Finally, the American drone assassinated him in the same manner in the centre of Baghdad and in the headquarters of the Popular Mobilization Forces (which is a government headquarters adjacent to the Iraqi Ministry of Interior) on the day after the martyrdom of the commanders of victory. This is how the United States violated our sovereignty and values and all the norms. 

Therefore, his blood became the volcano of the warriors and on the day of his martyrdom, a thousand Abu Taqwa’s were born to be constant and endless nightmares for the invaders. 

The blood of this martyr in Iraq ignited the anger of the masses and the open condemnation of the elites and turned the end of the occupation into a public demand, to the extent that political forces and the government were forced to issue statements in this regard and demand the end of the presence of the occupiers in the territory of Iraq. 

 

Please give me a memory of that honourable martyr if you want. 

My last meeting with Martyr Abu Taqwa was two days before his martyrdom. This meeting is recorded in my mind like a videotape so that all the events before it have been erased from my mind. Whenever he is mentioned to me, all the details of that meeting are imprinted in my mind; His words, his smile, his way of sitting, his enthusiasm and steadfastness and determination to confront the American enemies, as well as his humility at the beginning of our conversation regarding the interpretation of a verse from the Qur’an that asks believers to submit to God’s commands. All of this resonates with me. Then we talked about the five martyrs who were martyred during the American bombing in Kirkuk a few days before his martyrdom. We talked about their bravery and loyalty and their status as martyrs. He listened carefully and with full faith and conviction, he was influenced by these words and raised his questions, plans and suggestions to deal with the enemies. 

Peace be to him, the day he was born, and the day he dies, and the day he is raised alive! [The Holy Qur’an 19:15]

 

 What is your advice to the people, especially the young generation who are the Islamic Resistance Axis in the era of the emergence of Imam al-Mahdi (aj)? 

If the meaning is what they should do during the advent of the Imam, I am less than able to give advice in a period when the lights of the blessings of the Imam shine on the horizon of the earth and the world and burn the idols and oppressors. 

And if the meaning of this question is to prepare for the appearance, I advise myself and them to consider waiting as worship, adhere to it and never neglect it. Waiting is the best worship, as it is said in the hadiths: “Waiting is the greatest jihad.” This worship cannot be achieved except by purifying the soul and preparing it with the weapon of awareness and improving experience and ability to serve the Imam. 

And in the era of backsliding, one should fully obey his vicegerent, who is the leader who laid the foundation for the emergence and guardian of the Muslims of the world, Ayatollah Sayyed Ali Khamenei.
