Question:
It is mentioned regarding your eminence that you stated on the internet that you consider this generation to be lying, and that al-Ijar is a liar,
Answer:
Jihad requires an imam who commands it, as commanding jihad is within the imam’s authority. If the imam of the Muslims commands jihad, we fight alongside him under a Muslim banner. As for chaos, destruction, and such matters, what is this? This is not jihad; this is evil and fitnah (trial, discord or temptation).
