Even though we had our differences with the man, he died as a courageous man on the battlefield. We ask Allah to have mercy on him and accept him.
There is a big difference between a commander who dies like any of his soldiers, dressed in his military uniform, weapon in hand, refusing to retreat in the face of the enemy, and one who dies suffocated in a bunker during a bombardment, hoping to avoid being hit by a missile."
Israeli Army Radio: ❝ Sinwar was wearing his military uniform and fighting army forces stationed in Rafah. He was killed during clashes between an infantry force in the Sultan neighborhood in Rafah, and it was not an assassination. ❞
Remember the lies that zionists had spread which was that he has sorrounded himself with captive Israelis in handcuffs to make it difficult for IDF to capture or kill him.
فلسنا على الأعقاب تدمى كلومنا *** ولكن على أقدامنا تقطر الدما
❝ Our wounds don't bleed on our heels,
It is on our feet that blood drips. ❞
(i.e. we die facing the enemy, not fleeing from him.)

❖ In the same idea, Muhammad ibn Ahmad al-'Alawi al-Hashimi said:
محرّمة أكفال خيلي على القنا *** ودامية لبّاتها ونحورها
حرام على أرماحنا طعن مدبر *** وتندقّ منها في الصدور صدورها
❝ The croups of my horses are forbidden to spears,
But their throats and chests are bloody.
Our lances are forbidden to stab fleeing backs,
But in chests do the spearheads sink. ❞

❖ 'Abd Allah ibn al-Zubayr said:
إنا واللّه لا نموت حتفا ولكن قعصا بأطراف الرماح وموتا تحت ظلال السيوف
❝ By Allah, we don't die a natural death but are felled on the spot by spears and are killed in the shadow of swords. ❞

❖ Al-Samaw'al ibn 'Adiya' said:
وما مات منّا سيّد حتف أنفه *** ولا طلّ منّا حيث كان قتيل
تسيل على حدّ الظّبات نفوسنا *** وليس على غير السّيوف تسيل
❝ No lord of ours died a natural death,
Or was unavenged, if he had been killed.
Our souls flow in death on the sharp edges of swords,
And on nothing else but the swords do they flow. ❞
In Ibn Kathir’s Tafsir (specifically his chapter on the last ayaat of Surah al-Imraan), he mentions the following story:
Al-Hafiz ibn `Asakir mentioned in the biography of `Abdullah bin al-Mubarak, that Muhammad bin Ibrahim bin Abi Sakinah said,
“While in the area of Tarsus, `Abdullah bin al-Mubarak dictated this poem (Ya Abid Al Haramain) to me when I was greeting him goodbye. He sent the poem with me to al-Fudhayl bin`Iyad in the year 170:
O Worshipper of the Two Holy Masjids!
Had you witnessed us in the battlefield
You would have known that, compared to our Jihad,
Your worship is child’s play.
For every tear you have shed upon your cheek,
We have shed in its place, blood upon our chests.
You are playing with your worship,
While worshippers offer your worship
Mujahideen offer their blood and person (life).
The smell of nice perfume of is for you,
And our perfume is the dust and dirt (which is more pure),
And it has reached us from the sayings of our Prophet,
The martyr is not dead,
This is a true correct saying, in which there is no lie.
The dust of the people of Allah is never equal,
To a thousand men, whilst the smoke is climbing.
This is the book of Allah between us,
The martyr is not dead – and this is no lie.
“I met al-Fudayl ibn `Iyad in the Sacred Masjid and gave him the leter. When he read it, his eyes became tearful and he said, ‘Abu `Abdur-Rahman (`Abdullah bin al-Mubarak) has said the truth and offered sincere advice to me.’ He then asked me, ‘Do you write the Hadeeth?’ I said, ‘Yes.’ He said, ‘Write this Hadeeth as reward for delivering the letter of Abu `Abdur-Rahman to me.’ He then dictated,
‘Mansur bin al-Mu`tamir narrated to us that Abu Saalih narrated from Abu Hurayrah that a man asked, ‘O Messenger of Allah! Teach me a good deed that will earn me the reward of the Mujahideen in Allah’s cause.’
The Prophet sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam said, ‘Are you able to pray continuously and fast without breaking the fast?’ The man said, ‘O Messenger of Allah! I cannot bear it.’
The Prophet sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam said,
‘By He in Whose Hand is my soul! Even if you were able to do it, you would not achieve the grade of the Mujahideen in Allah’s cause. Did you not know that the horse of the Mujaahid earns rewards for him as long as it lives?’” [Ahmad]
Decapitation doesn't work with networked organizations such as Hamas. The majority are children of the camps [Refugees]. Even after decades of imprisonment, Sinwar opted for resistance instead of a different comfortable life. Even though Israel has

Finally achieved one of its main objectives; the assassination of Yahya Sinwar, the brain behind the biggest disaster in the history of Israel. But this has induced a new dilemma. For months, Israel propagated that Sinwar is hiding in tunnels while keeping Hostages as

Human Shield. Unexpectedly, he was assassinated, not in an Intelligence based operation in some underground facility but in a random encounter at the heart of the battlefield.Israel's intelligence and military capabilities to rescue hostages are still questionable!

As for the military, political and psychological impacts are concerned. Al-Qassam is still intact, even controlling some areas in Gaza even after years of war. Sinwar presence on battlefield reflects the decentralised war fighting strategy.

As for the political impact. Political capital is there both inside and outside Gaza. Hamas can appoint someone from outside of Gaza as well or again some from the field or adopt ambiguity to break the cycle. Regardless, it won't change the fabric of the organisation.

As for psychological impact, it reminds me Hamas's
Saleh Al Arouri said, "We are from the people and not immune to death. We will also get martyred."
Sinwar was offered a deal to leave Gaza and was projected as a self-centric narcissist hiding in tunnels.

But was assassinated right at the heart of battlefield carrying out offensive operations. The fatigue and military uniform reflects the overall mentality and connection between the rank and file. It reflects the shared pain due to unbreakable commitment towards the cause.

The only thing this explains is that the war is far from over, and the resistance will continue regardless of the assassination cycle. Israel is still occupied with Hostages Question, Al-Qassam Question, and most importantly, Post War Question.

Statement of Condolence
The Islamic Movement of Ahrar al-Sham offers its condolences to its brothers in jihad and to our people in Palestine specifically, and to the Islamic nation generally, on the martyrdom of the head of the political bureau of the Hamas movement, Commander Yahya Sinwar, who was martyred in battle against the criminal Zionists, facing the enemy without retreat, alongside his brothers and soldiers. We ask Allah to accept him and all our martyrs among the honored ones and to raise their ranks in Paradise.
On this occasion, we affirm that the bond of Islam among the people of the faith is a strong tie that unites us, regardless of any disputes or differences, especially against a clear enemy that destroys crops and offspring and has no regard for humanity.
We pray to Allah to unite our nation upon the truth so that our hearts may broaden in understanding all our enemies, despite their differing approaches and various banners, so that those who are destined to perish do so with clarity, and those who are destined to live, live with clarity.

Indeed, we belong to Allah, and to Him we shall return

Yahya Sinwar went out fighting. Dressed in fatigues, his right arm severed, he flung a stick defiantly at the Israel drone filming him. He had submitted to his fate from the moment he unleashed the flood. This video practically ensures the tide will rise.
U.A.E to fund Israeli military base in the breakaway republic of Somaliland.
Looks like MBZ and MBS are in competition in trying to impress upon their Zionist masters as to who amongst them is the most loyal agent and collaborator.
The Zionists in their desperation, realising the release of the video of Yahya Sinwars last moments, have now made him an international icon of resistance.
Are desperately trying to defame and tarnish him first a fabricated photo, of his wife supposedly carrying a $32000 handbag. Claiming he and his wife lived in luxury whilst the people of GAZA lived in poverty.
Then a video of a an Israeli bunker, stacked with food and luxuries claiming it had been the hideout of Sinwar.
We also have the Saudi-Madkhalis having a meltdown, some portraying him as an innovator (mubtadi), others celebrating his death.
And huge backlash against the Saudi news channel MBC which did a hit piece labelling him, Ismail Haniyeh and the resistance as Terrorists.

A 40-year-old father of four, Eliran Mizrahi deployed to Gaza after the deadly Hamas-led attack on Israel on October 7, 2023.
The Israeli military reservist returned a different person, traumatized by what he had witnessed in the war against Hamas in the strip, his family told CNN. Six months after he was first sent to fight, he was struggling with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) back at home. Before he was due to redeploy, he took his own life.
“He got out of Gaza, but Gaza did not get out of him. And he died after it, because of the post-trauma,” his mother, Jenny Mizrahi, said.
The Israeli military has said it is providing care for thousands of soldiers who are suffering from PTSD or mental illnesses caused by trauma during the war. It is unclear how many have taken their own lives, as the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has not provided an official figure.
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
