The Ruling on Supplicating Against the Oppressor and Aggressor

Question:
What is the ruling on supplicating against the tyrant of Iraq?

Answer:
As you heard, one supplicates against him as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated against those who caused a disturbance. He cursed them and supplicated against Birr and Dhukwan and others. He also supplicated against the leaders of Quraysh until Allah guided them and they embraced Islam. So, whoever causes evil to the people is supplicated against according to the extent of his expected harm. One supplicates for his destruction and ruin, and Allah turns his scheme back into his own throat. If he is a sinner, one supplicates for his guidance, and the hudud (fixed punishments) are established against him if possible. So, one supplicates against everyone according to his state. The disbeliever and the oppressor have their state, and the sinner among the Muslims is supplicated against with what he deserves if he persists in his tyranny, does not refrain, and it is not feasible to establish the hudud against him. But those who transgress against the Muslims have another matter, of the kind of Saddam and his like. One supplicates for their destruction and ruin, that Allah defeats their gathering, scatters their assembly, and supports the Muslims against them, just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated against Ra'ib and Dhukran and Asiya, and against Quraysh, among others. Yes.
