Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Some people claim that the reason the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did not engage in jihad against the disbelievers at the beginning of the mission, up until the migration to Madinah, is that jihad was not prescribed during that period, and not because of the Muslims' weakness and their inability to do so. Please clarify this for us, may Allah grant you success, and we ask you to be responsible in your answer.
Answer:
Yes, it is because they were learning a group of things regarding jihad, but why was jihad not prescribed? Because the Muslims were not able to do it in that city. Jihad was not prescribed, and it was not prescribed, why? Because the Muslims were not able to do jihad in that other city. Yes.
