Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : ... ... Was this jihad an individual obligation or a collective obligation?

The Shaykh : A collective obligation.

The questioner : What is the evidence...?

The Shaykh : The evidence, this is the evidence according to the scholars; because serving one's parents is only prioritized when there is no attack that would destroy both the parents and the children; therefore, the scholars of knowledge and jurisprudence interpret this hadith as referring to collective obligation jihad, otherwise the verse is explicit:
Go forth انفِرُوا
all
all جَمِيعًا
, this is when the enemy attacks the land of the Muslims.
Yes.
