Question:
Ah. Is there any sharia-compliant jihad at this time?
Answer:
Sharia-compliant jihad exists when the imam, the leader of the Muslims, calls for it and orders it. He (Exalted and Majestic is He) said:[At-Tawbah 9:38] Who is the one who says, "Go forth"? It is the imam. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "And when you are called to mobilize, then go forth." In the creed of the people of the Sunnah and the community, jihad continues with every imam, whether he is righteous or a wrongdoer. So this jihad is among the prerogatives of the one in authority. If he orders it, then the one who is ordered, if he has the ability, it is obligatory for him to comply. Yes.

Sharia-compliant jihad exists when the imam, the leader of the Muslims, calls for it and orders it. He (Exalted and Majestic is He) said:
what is [the matter] with you that, when you are told to go forth in the cause of Allah, you adhere heavily to the earth?
مَا لَكُمْ إِذَا قِيلَ لَكُمُ انفِرُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ اثَّاقَلْتُمْ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ
