Socioeconomic analysis is misleading when we approach the growing aging population in North African countries. There is a weakness in spiritual values reinforced by local policies and intellectual invasion. Returning to Islamic values guarantees procreation, in compliance with the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: 'Marry and procreate, for I will boast of your numbers among the nations on the Day of Resurrection.' Fertility, childbirth, and encouraging that populate North Africa and protect it from invaders, and it is also a humane solution for the high level of aging in Europe. 'O mankind, indeed We have created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may know one another. Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you.'

Encouraging youth to reside in the lands of disbelief and marry Australian polytheistic women and then naturalize is the utmost misleading and cheap propaganda not governed by the true Sharia. A Muslim must not forget that he is a Muslim and that he is responsible for what he says and publishes. It is better to seek a fatwa before proceeding. Fascination is evident on the faces of influencers over the youth, and they have followers who are deceived, chasing the mirage of this world. If only they desired the Hereafter, but they seek worldly life and its adornment, which has corrupted both the West and the East.

Legitimate policy is based on easing burdens on the subjects by preventing harm and delivering rights to them. The rulers in our country must listen to the people's complaints regarding inflation and wealth distribution. It is not wise to burden people with new taxes to fill the treasury; this is the logic of the modern secular state, while the principles of the Algerian state established by Emir Abdelkader are just and precede the good of modern states in the East and West by far.

All ministers must improve their language when addressing the Algerian people. Even simple farmers understand classical Arabic perhaps better than officials, because they follow eloquent media, Friday sermons, and religious lessons and understand the meanings conveyed. I do not know if these officials will speak in very colloquial French in the same way—when they speak in Algerian dialect and stumble in finding expressions and are not embarrassed, as usual, to borrow words and expressions from French to complete sentences—or will they be cautious so that the French do not laugh at them? The people of Algeria must possess a language understood by those not from their country; neither Arabs understand what we say nor the French.

The imprint of politics is clearly present in those who push women from one field to another without vision, as if they were a testing ground. From the working woman to the female farmer to another destination we do not know later. Woman was created to be a mother, and the household economy complements this sacred function. For women to find space for agricultural work, they need a spacious house. Thus, the authorities should not house people in towering buildings and cramped apartments like matchboxes and then expect them to achieve self-sufficiency. God's earth is vast, and Algeria is a nearly empty country, and its soil grows everything a human needs. The authorities must adopt their development programs from Islam, because in Islam there is an explanation for everything, and guidance and admonition for the righteous.

Moreover, improving the environment in which rural people live, as was mentioned about shadow areas but little has been achieved, is better than mechanization, which has difficulties and obstacles in the field. And before all that, we must stop pumping riba-based loans and investments because they are a war against God and His Messenger and are inevitably destructive to agriculture. They must be replaced with good support and long-term benevolent loans to succeed. Then, those who aspire to buy a Romanian, Spanish, or even Syrian sheep should strive to raise their own sacrificial animal by any available means to worship God with it next year. The Romanians take our money, and the intermediaries also get a share. It is better to spend money on relatives. So let Algerians be aware!

Will the import of sacrificial animals continue every year like this? Or will the livestock problem in the country be solved so that importing sacrificial animals is no longer needed? The political and media misinformation that accompanied the import and distribution process all served beyond the scope of food security for the Algerian people. Instead of addressing the root crisis, the authorities resorted to palliative treatments. Moreover, it is our right to know the price of the sacrificial animal at the Romanian breeder? And what was it fed? Because the disbeliever is not trustworthy as he may provide anything, even if it is forbidden to us or a poison whose symptoms appear only after years. What the Zionist occupation did to the resistance in Lebanon by booby-trapping 'pager' devices and spraying chemical pesticides along the border strip to contaminate the land is not far off. Then what led Algerian youth to refrain from raising their own livestock and providing their sacrificial animal and table meat as their fathers and grandfathers did? And who raised them in this consumerist and dependent style instead of a free and dignified life?

The sacrificial animal is not obligatory; it is a Sunnah for those who can afford it. Religion is taken with the intention of worship alone, not mixed with other intentions like ostentation and boasting. The issue of a dignified life has no solution under secular governments and the nation-state. Muslim peoples must realize their interest and know where to find it. They will find it in unity among themselves and in the just distribution of wealth under legitimate Muslim governments. Anything else is an endless series of crises, and the disbelievers gloat. So let Muslims be aware!

The magic of the Algerian Sahara is not only in its material aspects that media propaganda talks about. There are social values derived from religion that the Sahrawi man and woman possess, which these promoters of desert tourism have overlooked. The people of El Bayadh have a history of jihad against colonialism that deserves mention. Nevertheless, there must be a spotlight on the authorities' failure to uplift the Bedouin people, develop their regions, and preserve their moral heritage, which will amaze tourists more than the beauty of their tents.

Glory be to God! When a person lacks the light of God, he gets lost in superficial analyses. Are security and economic motives all that explain these developments and international positions in the Sahara region? Why do we deny that the return of African peoples to their Islamic identity is what drives all this? The Western and Russian approach is pragmatic to the point of intoxication, and they look only at their strategic interests as colonizers. Algeria protects its national security, and part of its people's national security is the return of unity among the countries of the Islamic world from its west to its east, as it has always been throughout history. And matters are managed by the Creator of everything, to whom belongs the command before and after.

American talk is 'soft' when it comes to wealth, because they have no real culture beyond that. Opening the Algerian economy to American capitalism allows it to take over energy sources to use in its international policy, then invest our revenues from this energy in its economy, in exchange for securing private interests, as it did with the gang previously, and that money did not return to us, but eroded due to immediate political decisions with miscalculations.

U.S. Secretary of State 'Christopher Landau' says: 'The United States can be part of Algeria's future.' I answer him: Can Algeria be part of the United States' future? Especially since Americans lack someone to introduce them to the secrets of existence and the just system that God revealed in His final message to humanity, and many other things that Americans should learn, so that they might save themselves from the Hell prepared for the disbelievers.
