Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a question in which the questioner says: Your Eminence the Shaykh, what do we call what is happening in the land of Sham? Is it jihad or fighting? And is the one killed between these groups called a martyr?
Answer:
My brothers, we told you that jihad in the path of Allah has conditions and has rulings clearly stated in the books of the scholars. So if the rulings of jihad and the conditions of jihad apply to it, then it is jihad. If it differs from that, then it is fighting and not jihad. Yes.
