What is the ruling on those who die in suicide operations?

The questioner : He is asking, he is asking here.The questioner : He says: What is the ruling on those who die in jihad operations on the border with the Jews?

The Shaykh : The answer: First, if they intend jihad in the path of Allah, Mighty and Majestic, then it is according to their intentions, based on the well-known hadith in Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim. It is one of the hadiths with which al-Bukhari opened his book, Sahih, and Imam Muslim included it in his Sahih in the Book of Jihad, to clarify that jihad is not jihad in the path of Allah unless the intention is pure for Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He. We had mentioned in a previous session that two conditions are required for a righteous deed that Allah, Mighty and Majestic, accepts: that it be in accordance with the Sunnah, and that it be pure for Allah, Mighty and Majestic. There is no doubt that jihad is among the righteous deeds that Allah, Mighty and Majestic, made obligatory, sometimes as an individual obligation and sometimes as a collective obligation. He linked the preservation of the honor of the Muslim community to jihad. Conversely, if they neglect jihad in the path of Allah, as came in the authentic hadith: - He will not lift it from them - .
There is no need to prove that jihad is worship, and a very great worship, but this worship is not accepted by Allah, Mighty and Majestic, unless it is pure for Him, not for partisanship or for defending a land. The land of Allah is all His; He owns it and gives it to whom He wills of His servants. That hadith with which Imam al-Bukhari opened his Sahih, you all hear it, but the important thing is to act upon it. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: This hadith is very explicit in that the migration mentioned in this hadith, and what is meant by it is jihad in the path of Allah, Mighty and Majestic, is only accepted by our Lord, Blessed and Exalted is He, if it is with a pure intention for Him, not seeking anything behind it from the debris of this world or what is connected to it. He (peace be upon him) said, by way of example: He mentioned the woman and the wealth that a person may obtain in jihad. If he does not seek behind his jihad except that, then that is his intention. I say he mentioned that by way of example, otherwise the intention is corrupted by many matters. It is not just a woman he marries or a worldly thing he obtains. It may be that he wants from his jihad and fighting to be said that he is a mujahid who does not want wealth and does not want a woman he captures in war, but rather that so-and-so is a mujahid. Then that is his intention, meaning he has no jihad.
So, if the intention of the mujahid is pure for Allah, there is no doubt that he will be rewarded for that with what he deserves. But this jihad about which the question was asked is not the jihad that Allah commanded. I say it is his intention because he intended jihad, but jihad must be prepared for as Allah, the Exalted, said in the well-known verse: This jihad, when it is declared and preparations are made for it, is the one from which it is not permissible to stay behind. As for jihad in the sense of individuals rising up, even if it is for revenge for their religion or their land, that is not jihad. Defending the land may be obligatory, but these attacks, which in most cases result in more loss than gain, as is observed in many of such attacks, is not the jihad that all Muslims must mobilize for, as in the Qur'an. Rather, it is the jihad to which Allah, Mighty and Majestic, referred in another verse: Therefore, Muslims, as we have explained this on more than one occasion, should return to themselves and understand the Shari'ah of their Lord correctly, and act with sincere and pure action in what they understand of the law of Allah, Mighty and Majestic, and His religion, until they unite and gather on a common word. Then the believers will rejoice in the victory of Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He. This is the answer to this question.
