Wonderful 2025... and the epic liberation of Jerusalem and the rise of a new Just Civilization

Best wishes for a wonderful Holiday Season and a Happy New Year from the Sustainable Building Design Lab Team. I would like to thank you on behalf of myself and the entire SBD Lab team for being with us. This year, we hosted researchers from Algeria, Belgium, Burkina Faso, Chile, China, France, India, Iraq, Iran, Ireland, Italy, and Norway at the Sustainable Building Design Lab, School of Engineering, Liege University.

2024 was the toughest year of my life. Under the live and ongoing genocide in Gaza, I would like to share with you my personal perspective on these transformative years we are living. The Western media has completely failed, and I hope we can move beyond it.

In fact, the greatest threat to humanity today is posed by the political West, driven by its arrogance, ethnocentric mentality, and inability to embrace diversity. Western civilization has not only waged wars but also developed weapons of mass destruction, employed for genocidal purposes, as evidenced by the two holocausts of 1939–1945 and 2023–2024.

The Battle of the Flood of Al-Aqsa has accelerated the dismantling of the Western post-colonial and zionist project and the system established after World War II, along with its instruments, such as the United Nations and the European Union. Israel has fallen—its failure in both ground wars marks a historic turning point. The Palestinian people are stronger today than at any point in their modern history. Four monumental realities have emerged from this war:

1. The steadfastness and resilience of Palestinians in Gaza have become legendary—a miraculous act of civilization. The events in Gaza and Southern Lebanon demonstrate the extraordinary ability of Palestinians and Lebanese to strategize, plan, and execute with remarkable precision.
2. The tyrannical regimes in Islamic countries are nearing their end as a collective state of awareness and awakening spreads rapidly. Across the Arab world, a realization of what must be done is taking root, heralding a profound transformation. The Arab Spring endures like a phoenix rising from the ashes and will not relent until all Western-backed proxy rulers are overthrown. Soon, a united Arab world, driven by faith and purpose, will align with Türkiye, Iran, Pakistan, and Afghanistan.
3. Very soon, the tide of history will shift as the surrounding Arab nations join forces with the Palestinians in a monumental endeavor to liberate Jerusalem and Palestine. Israel, having reached the point of no return due to its apartheid project, internal divisions, failed strategies, and diminishing global support, stands on the brink of collapse, paving the way for justice and liberation to prevail. The learned lesson of lesson from Afghanistan's liberation after the U.S. pullout or Assad's fall in Syria underscores the fragility of authoritarian regimes that rely on oppression, external backing, and divisive tactics to maintain power.
4. Islam will serve as the foundation for a transformative intellectual and civilizational project grounded in justice and human values, radiating from Arabia to the world. The current Western civilization, marked by ethnocentrism and consumerism, will give way to a new paradigm built on mercy, equity, and sustainability—not on bloodshed and oppression. The BRICS nations, including Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan, Egypt, and the UAE, will lead the emergence of a dominant global economic and political force, surpassing Western-led institutions.

This transformation is unfolding before our eyes, signaling the dawn of a new era. The next great economic crash and climate disruptions looming on the horizon will accelerate this seismic shift, dismantling the remnants of a collapsing Western-led order. Parallel to this, the ongoing World War III, already ignited, will reach its peak in the coming years, reshaping global power dynamics and heralding the rise of a multipolar world.

In the midst of this upheaval, Jerusalem will soon be liberated, becoming a beacon of resilience, sustainability, justice, and hope for all. Islamic civilization offers humanity a transformative path to peace, free from the chains of hegemony and domination. Resistance remains the unyielding catalyst for reclaiming homelands, empowering the Global South, and eradicating occupation.

Together, we stand at the precipice of a monumental change. By uniting in purpose and action, we can contribute to this historic transformation and witness the establishment of a just, equitable, and harmonious world within our lifetimes. "Indeed, the wrongdoers will not succeed." إنه لا يفلح الظالمون

Finally, I hope next year will allow us to enjoy the presence of our loved ones, reduce the work pressure, meet our challenges, and achieve our goals.
