Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: If the condition of the Muslims at the time of jihad is such that Allah has made things easy for them and they have wealth and great good, is it said in this situation that jihad with the self is better than jihad with wealth because there is no need for it?
Answer:
It depends on the public benefit. If the need for wealth is pressing, then jihad with wealth is better. But if jihad with the self is better or more needed, then it is better with the self. Yes.
