KHILAFAH & US RELATIONS IN THE PAST: How The Khilafah in History dealt with the USA !! ....The following facts will prove to you that with a sincere Khaliph who rules by Islam, we the Ummah are the real super power & that our weakness is due to having leaders who implement the rule of Kufr. When the Khilafah was present and it applied Islam, it was the worlds unrivalled power. This fact is not forgotten by the West and it remains a potent force which the worlds intelligence agencies spend day and night hypothesizing about. ======================================================== In 1783 the first US navy boat started to sail in international waters and within two years was captured by the Uthmani navy near Algeria. In 1793 12 more US navy boats were captured. In March 1794 the US Congress authorized President Washington to spend up to 700 000 gold coins to build strong steel boats that would resist the Uthmani navy. Just a year later the US signed the Barbary Treaty to resolve the Uthmani threat. Barbary, was the term for the North African wilayas of Algiers, Tunis, and Tripoli, under the rule of the Uthmanis The terms of the treaty were: 1.The treaty will cost the US a one off payment of $992,463 2.The American ships captured would be returned and the American Navy was to be given permission to sail in the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. 3.In return, the American government would pay $642 000 in equivalent gold. 4.The US would also pay an annual tax (tribute) of $12 000 in gold. The annual tribute would be calculated according to the Islamic calendar and not the Christian calendar 5.$585,000 would be paid for the ransom of the captured American sailors 6. A state of the art steel ship would be constructed and delivered to the Uthmanis, built in the US with all costs borne by the US in return for privileges. (The costs of masts, Yards, and heavy planks, were very costly and so difficult to procure, and then so exceedingly expensive to transport. Once delivered the US had actually paid thirty times their estimated price in the stipulations). The treaty was written in Turkish and signed by President Washington, This is the only American legal document to ever have been concluded in a foreign language and the only treaty the Americans have ever signed that agrees to pay annual tax to another nation. This treaty continued until the Khilafah was abolished.
