Donations to the Mujahideen and the Jihad Seminar

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And my brother says: We ask Your Eminence the Shaykh to include the Muslims in the call for financial donations, as I read that the mujahideen are in need of funds and that the Muslims are falling short in their duty toward the mujahideen. Why do you not hold one of your Thursday seminars on jihad and its regulation, even if only once a month?

Answer:
All of this is good and difficult, and there is no doubt that they are in need of money, men, and weapons. We ask Allah for their support and success. We bring you the good news that they have much good: they have weapons, they have money, and they have men. We ask Allah to help them.
This is evident from our writings and those of others, but despite that, they are always in need of legislation, even if only once or twice a month. We ask Allah to bring that about, and this matter will surely be resolved, if Allah wills. Also, we encourage our brothers and call upon them to strive in jihad with their brothers using the wealth Allah has given them, for Allah says:
Go forth, whether light or heavy, and strive with your wealth and your lives in the cause of Allahانفِرُوا خِفَافًا وَثِقَالًا وَجَاهِدُوا بِأَمْوَالِكُمْ وَأَنفُسِكُمْ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ
[At-Tawbah 9:41]
So you, O Muslim, are invited to strive with your jihad and your wealth, and everything that is with Allah the Mighty and Majestic. We ask Allah for success and guidance for everyone. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Strive with your wealth and your souls, and make your tongues submit to Allah, even if it is a call to Allah, even if it is the jihad of the people, not jihad,
