HuT in its different publications being distributed among youths is trying to teach them that jihad or military programme or armed struggle is a must to establish the rule of Islam. The outfit campaigns for armed struggle using the verses of the holy Quran. "… [if anyone] leaves jihad or armed struggle, they shall not be accepted to Allah as a Momen (devout)," reads a publication of HuT titled "Islamer Prokrito Salah" (Real advice of Islam). In the book, the HuT says Muslims as a whole are a military nation. The whole nation is a military force; each and every Muslim is a soldier, a Mujahid (Holly fighter) and a warrior. "The training of this military force is called Salah," the book reads.
