Question:
The questioner: In our country, the government allows the Christians to kill Muslims in one of the islands, and prevents Muslims from going to that island to aid the Muslims. What is the ruling on their going to aid their brothers from the hands of the Christians?
Answer:
If they are able to go to aid their brothers, it is obligatory for them to do so. But if they are unable to do so, they are excused. Yes, but they must supplicate to Allah the Exalted for victory and relief,[Al-Baqarah 2:286]. Yes.
