Ruling on going to jihad in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
His Eminence the Shaykh: What is your opinion regarding someone who wants to go to Bosnia and Herzegovina, with clarification?
I see that, at the present time, one should not go to that place; because Allah, Mighty and Majestic, has only prescribed jihad with the ability to carry it out, and as far as we know from the news, and Allah knows best, the matter is currently confused regarding the ability to do so. It is true that they have stood firm, but we do not know how the situation will be until now.If jihad becomes clear and distinct, then at that time we will say: Go; because there is good in that, but now, and the matter is hypothetical, we cannot tell people: Go.
