Aslan Maskhadov, (September 21, 1951 - March 8, 2005) the former President of Chechnya and a murid of the Naqshbandi-Haqqani Sufi Order was the architect of the Muslim victory over the Russians in the first Chechen War. He was once asked why they could be victorious over the Russians and yet the Palestinians had problem with the Israelis even when they had Arab support. He said they fought for themselves, whilst the Chechens fought for Allah (s.w.t.). The Russians had surrounded Grozny with more than 100,000 troops. Before the battle, they held mawlid and dzikr. They remembered Allah (s.w.t.); they remembered the Battles of Badr and Khandaq. They went forth to fight. Ultimately, what was achieved, Chechen autonomy, was undone by internal battles with the Wahhabi. They perpetrated the atrocity of Beslan, they tried to spread the war to Daghistan, they went against the Sunnah. And thus Muslims are their own greatest enemies.
