Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
There is no doubt that every questioner is calling upon your Eminence. May you be in good health and long life. If I go, if Allah wills, on the tenth of Rajab to Afghanistan, for my brothers, and I ask Allah to let me share in their struggle and return in His path, and I have a debt of a loan, that is, a benevolent loan, of eighty-five thousand riyals, a debt to the real estate bank, and I said if I attain martyrdom, the creditors will take their right from my building where my children live, is there any blame on me or anything regarding that?

Answer:
You have no need to worry, you should be cautious. I say, as long as you have left behind what you have destroyed, we ask Allah to write good for you, for every Muslim.
