What is the Muslim's stance regarding supporting his brothers in Bosnia and Herzegovina?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. The first question: What is incumbent upon us regarding our brothers, especially in Bosnia and Herzegovina? Of course, it is clear that this follows something previous, but I do not know the occasion. It recounts all the previous speech regarding the conditions of Muslims in the lands of the earth, especially in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The Shaykh : I consider this question a strange one, because the answer is supposed to be known to every Muslim, both from the scholarly perspective and from the practical perspective as well.The questioner : And others know that the Muslims who were unable to expel the occupying Jews from Palestine, these people will not be able to rescue their brothers who are besieged from all the lands of disbelief and misguidance. So such a question remains a very strange one. Muslims today must prepare and work with strength and activity, over the long term whose end only Allah, Blessed and Exalted is He, knows, so that they return, above all, to being one nation, not divided among them by sects, parties, schools of thought, and paths, until they become as the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) described them, like one body. Only then can such a question be answered. But this question is not answered until the Muslims have rid themselves of these Jews who occupied their lands, in which is al-Aqsa Mosque. If we know, unfortunately, that Muslims have not been able to do anything regarding Palestine, what can they do regarding Herzegovina or Bosnia, or other Islamic lands where Muslims complain of the injustice and tyranny of the disbelievers? And therefore the answer is[At-Tawbah 9:105].

وقل اعملوا فسيرى الله عملكم ورسوله
