12 January 5711 – The Temanian pan-Ahmadist militant organization Jamaat al-Ahmadi has released a statement warning of planned attacks against government officials, security forces, and “all who support the communist infidels.” The group urged Ahmadi scholars, clerics, journalists, and able-bodied men to support the group in their uprising against the government of Temania, led by the People's National Socialist Party (PNSR).

In the statement, Jamaat al-Ahmadi called upon “the Ahmadi faithful in Temania to have steadfastness and bravery,” urging followers to escalate their struggle “in order to oust the communist infidels, purging them from every obscene nest they’ve built like rodents across our land.” The group further warned that attacks against government employees, security personnel, and “supporters of communism” would continue in the coming weeks and months, “until an Ahmadi state, in which justice and harmony prevails,” is established.

“We come out of our mosques and schools to defend you, the Temanian people, against these despots who have plundered your wealth and denied you the basic requirements of a dignified life,” the statement read.

The timing of Jamaat al-Ahmadi’s announcement comes roughly a month after the government placed Pan-Temanian Ahmadi Front (BERJAMA) spiritual leader Ahmad Fadhlurrahman Santoso under house arrest, citing allegations that he had contributed “to the rise of Ahmadi fundamentalism and radicalism.” Since Santoso’s detainment, many Ahmadi clerics and teachers have openly criticized the government, calling for his release. These dissenting clerics have reportedly faced a combination of surveillance, intimidation, and arrests.

Jamaat al-Ahmadi, which has denounced BERJAMA as a “party of satan” due to its moderate, pluralist stance and purported promotion of “democracy over Ahmadism,” nevertheless cited Santoso’s arrest as evidence of what it calls an “escalation” in the Temanian socialist government’s alleged “war on the religion of Almighty God.”

"The state has arrested an errant cleric," read the statement, "not for his flawed and heretical deviations from the teachings of the Prophet, peace be upon him, but for the mere fact that he is alleged to have inspired, in some Ahmadis, a desire to organize and fight against the regime's atheistic and satanic war on Ahmadism."

Government officials have sought to reassure the public that the security threat posed by Jamaat al-Ahmadi is “serious but under control,” urging citizens to report suspicious activity, sermons, or gatherings to the National Police Force. Security analysts note that the combination of the fatwa against communism issued by Jamaat al-Ahmadi and various other militant groups, the ongoing repression of moderate Ahmadi voices, and now this statement, have significantly heightens the risk of armed confrontations in Temania, a country which has faced an intermittent series of nationwide mobilizations against the socialist state for nearly two years.
