00:00:00.180 --> 00:00:08.699
A summary of the concepts held by the Ahl al-Sunnah.

00:00:08.699 --> 00:00:12.699
Why did the Americans invade Afghanistan?

00:00:12.699 --> 00:00:18.600
The Americans invaded Afghanistan under the pretext of eradicating terrorism.

00:00:18.600 --> 00:00:27.600
And to take revenge on those who bombed the World Trade Center towers in the year 2001.

00:00:27.600 --> 00:00:33.600
And to empower women in Afghanistan to be liberated and grant them the opportunity for education.

00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:40.600
Yet, if they truly wanted to educate women, they would have provided the Taliban government with the funds for that.

00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:48.600
This would have been easier for them than the exorbitant cost of the invasion and the loss of many of their soldiers there.

00:00:48.600 --> 00:00:55.890
Wesley Clark, the commander of NATO forces, declared the true reason behind the invasion.

00:00:55.890 --> 00:01:03.890
He said, "Whoever thinks that we went to Afghanistan to take revenge for the events of September 11th,"

00:01:03.890 --> 00:01:10.890
"should correct his mistake; we went to ward off a greater danger, which is Islam."

00:01:11.890 --> 00:01:18.890
"We do not want Islam to remain a free project in which Muslims decide what Islam is."

00:01:18.890 --> 00:01:22.890
"Rather, we are the ones who decide for them what Islam is."

00:01:22.890 --> 00:01:31.980
It is regrettable that they have succeeded to a large extent in spreading their own concepts of Islam throughout the entire world.

00:01:31.980 --> 00:01:41.980
For they have divided it into political Islam, moderate Islam, extremist Islam, and so on.
