Jihad with Wealth and Self in Afghanistan

Question:
The question asks: Is jihad with wealth sufficient in place of jihad with the self regarding the jihad in Afghanistan now, or is jihad with the self necessary?

Answer:
Both types of jihad are necessary; one does not suffice in place of the other. There is a third type of jihad, which is jihad with the tongue: calling people to Allah, encouraging people to help their mujahideen brothers, and spreading this in the mosques and elsewhere. Allah, Exalted and Majestic is He, said: . He began with wealth because it has the most widespread benefit, with the most avenues of benefit, so He began with it in most of the verses. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: . And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Hassan: "Satirize them," and he was the one holding his hand, saying, "It is harder for them than the bite of ants." He said to him: "Satirize them" , saying, "O Allah, satirize them with the Holy Spirit." The satire.
It has a great role in crushing the enemy, just as calling to Allah has a great effect in encouraging the mujahideen and guiding the lost. Our mujahideen brothers are in the greatest need of support in wealth, weapons, and self. The Islamic states and all Muslims should help them and strive to support them with self and wealth according to their ability and capacity, and they should not neglect this, for they are facing a treacherous, fierce enemy; indeed, he is the most evil, most wicked, and greatest of enemies. However, whether this jihad is an individual obligation (fard 'ayn) for Muslims everywhere, even in the east and west of the earth, is a matter for consideration. In the past, I believed it was an individual obligation because our mujahideen brothers did not receive sufficient help from their neighbors, the Pakistanis and others. The original ruling of jihad is a collective obligation (fard kifayah); if the collective obligation is not fulfilled, it becomes obligatory for the rest to assist them. They are in need of being helped. But whether it is an obligation for every individual may be a point of hesitation for some. One may have a call (da'wah) in his country that he is carrying out, and his country needs him. He may have a family that he is responsible for. He may have parents who do not glorify Allah. There may be other circumstances. So the matter requires consideration and reflection. If he is able and sees that his going to jihad will not cause harm and he will not neglect a matter greater than that, let him fight in jihad. Let him seek permission from his parents, or from one of them if one of them is present, and let him not rush. If he is in a village, a neighborhood, or a tribe that needs his call and teaching, then he is in jihad: the jihad of an individual who is separated. It is not hidden from you now what people are suffering from the cultural invasion from all parts of the world: the communist, Christian, Jewish, and permissive types, and all kinds of disbelief and misguidance. Their callers are innumerable, their books are innumerable, their publications are innumerable, and what is broadcast on the radio and in the press is innumerable. So there is a necessity for propaganda against these matters, even if it leads to jihad in them. And whoever Allah makes the opportunity of jihad in Afghanistan easy for him, that is a good matter. Yes.
