Answer:
Because the Muslims, from the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to our present time, have never fought except under the banner of faith. Allah (Mighty and Majestic) says:[At-Tawbah 9:38] when it is said to you, [At-Tawbah 9:38] go forth [At-Tawbah 9:38] when [At-Tawbah 9:38]. When it is said to you. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) says:
And the Sunnah of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) is that the Companions only fought under the banner of the Messenger or the banner that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) established and appointed a leader over as his deputy. This is the guidance of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and his Sunnah, and it is what the Muslims are upon. This is mentioned in the creeds that jihad is with the imams. That jihad is to be with the imams. This is in every creed of the people of the Sunnah and the community. Yes.
