Sudan Islamists to test their experience review

Ahmed Fadl-Khartoum

After the fall of the regime of Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir by the army last April, the Islamic movement finds itself obliged to conduct reviews that may be the most cruel in its history, today is not like yesterday.

After three decades of secular rule, Islamists in Sudan find themselves outdoors without power.

The mosque of the "martyr" in the tourist area of ​​Muqrin in the Sudanese capital Khartoum is sad. After being a haven for Islamists shocked so far from the horrors of the revolution that overthrew their rule, other mosques competed against this mosque and traveled to it before the fall of the Islamists.

Karuri advised
Even during Friday prayers, the Islamists are not sheltering in their mosque. It was not full, despite the lessons of the imam and preacher of the mosque, Sheikh Abdul Jalil Nazir Karuri, who advised the former rulers to "stop your hands."

Karoury, a senior leader of the Islamic Movement, was harsh on the latter, telling Al Jazeera Net in a salon attached to the mosque, a kind of self-skin, saying "cruelty is now required to get a new start."

Al-Khatib believes that "the plight of losing power is a punishment for the Islamists from heaven to give Bashir an open candidacy forever."

Integration of weddings
"The most important item in the revisions after 30 years of rule is to learn from the mistake of bringing together the three communities, the movement, the party and the government," Karouri said.

He explains that the merger between the government, the NCP and the Islamist movement was a mistake. `` In the leadership office, we could not stop the 2018 budget, which doubled the customs dollar because we have no more power than the president, '' he said.

Karuri blamed the Islamists for inventing the term "silent consensus", while their literature obliged them to consult, and "the people of salvation ruined their house by not consulting".

However, these ongoing reviews may not be convincing to a segment of young Islamists, representing generations that have grown up in the shadow of what they considered "the state of Islam."

One youth movement close to the decision-making center told Al Jazeera Net that there is no consensus on these reviews, as a group of these young people and some of the traumatized by what happened in the country see the talk of revisions as "plowing at sea."

The former source, who asked to be withheld his name and description, that there is a tendency is often in the process of forming the need to remove all historical leaders and the beginning from scratch.

Intermediate Leadership
Despite the uncertainty, lack of compass and poor communication with the Islamic movement, the young source says, there are intermediary leaders working in a room whose task is to assess attitudes and issue statements, as well as studying proposals for the future.

He points out that the movement is now moving to integrate the NCP within it, and to become a society rather than a political movement, with a proper name such as "Justice and Development" or "Ennahda".

He adds that there is a recall of the Turkish experience in returning to society, and inspired by the Tunisian experience in achieving national consensus, with the proposal of alternative leadership after the arrest of the leaders of the movement, led by Secretary-General Zubair Ahmed Hassan before being released recently.

Investigation Committee
The Islamist movement does not seem able to overcome the shock of the fall of its rule in Sudan, and speaks of "betrayal" overthrew the ousted President Omar al-Bashir, who has tied the hands of all institutions to evaluate and evaluate the experience of the rule of Islamists.

The same source said that the movement formed a fact-finding committee after the army sacked Bashir to find out who "betrayed and sold." He adds that he did not disclose the members of the committee, but told members of the Islamic movement that the committee includes senior leaders.

According to the same source, the commission of inquiry has come a long way, and is preparing to submit a final report will be called from the section of loyalty to the Islamic Movement of members of the security committee, who were in senior positions would not have reached them without the movement.

The security committee, which was headed by Bashir, includes his first deputy Awad bin Auf, Chief of Staff Kamal Abdul Marouf, as well as the commander of the Rapid Support Forces Mohammed Hamdan Dqlo (Humaidati), and the Director of the Intelligence and Security Service Salah Gosh and the police director.

The way back
Karuri believes that the return of the Islamists to the Sudanese scene is possible because only a few of them were preoccupied with governance, and they were brought up before the provision of contributions to finance their activities. He believes that the revolution was against the Islamists and not against Islam, saying, "names go away and the leaders step down and the project remains. We are with the civil authority and peaceful transfer of power as the forces of freedom and change say."

The Islamic Movement in a statement issued recently that it "reached a point that calls for easing the burden of the state, with the need to conduct many reviews of the approach to advocacy."

The source is likely to be the return of the Islamists through social work, there are facets of the movement is undetected now frozen so as not to retain the military as happened to the headquarters of the movement, and although Karuri unlikely to eradicate the new authority in Sudan Islamists in view of the tolerance of the Sudanese compared to the people of other countries, but also expected Not to be safe from some narrowing.

He pointed out the statement of the representative of the forces of the Declaration of Freedom and Change Mohammed Naji deaf during the signing last Saturday of the documents of the transition period, which is subject to the accession of the National Congress Party to the nation-building phase "free of their crimes," and said that the deaf will not be affected by any retaliatory measures.
