The Youth's Position on the Issue of Syria

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Excellency the Shaykh, this question has been repeated. This young man says: My honorable Shaykh, may Allah reward you, what is my position and the position of the youth regarding the issue of Syria, and how do we participate with them and support them? Knowing, Your Excellency the Shaykh, that there is a reality stirring among a group of youth, and a group of them has gone out, and there are reports being circulated about some of them being killed and some of them participating.

Answer:
By Allah, my brothers, we do not get involved in the problems of other countries; they have their own people and those among them who handle their resolution. The other nations are the ones who address their own problems. As for us, it is upon us to make du'a' (supplication) for them. It is upon us to make du'a' for the Muslims, because Allah protects them and grants them victory over their enemy, and we have no power except for du'a'. Yes.
