The establishment of the permissibility of jihad in all its forms at all times, and the condition of preparing the means for fighting the disbelievers

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: A caller says that there is no Sharia-based jihad in our current time. The question is: Is this statement correct?

Answer:
There is no absolute Sharia-based jihad, no jihad of the self, no jihad against Satan, and no jihad of enjoining good and forbidding evil; there is no jihad. This is a risky statement. There is jihad; no time is devoid of jihad. And jihad against the disbelievers, as you heard, if the Muslims have the means and preparation, it is obligatory. If they do not have the preparation, they wait and prepare the means, then they fight in the path of Allah.
