The Abrogation of the Prohibition of Fighting in the Sacred Months

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: Are the sacred months abrogated, given that Allah the Exalted said:
Fight them until there is no [more] fitnahوَقَاتِلُوهُمْ حَتَّىٰ لَا تَكُونَ فِتْنَةٌ
[Al-Baqarah 2:193]


Answer:
Yes, the stronger position is that they are abrogated, and that Allah has legislated fighting constantly throughout the year. This was only in the pre-Islamic age of ignorance; the sacred months were a practice of the pre-Islamic age of ignorance. Yes.
