What is the ruling on defending honor and wealth in these circumstances?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, but it is difficult for a person to accept humiliation, to have someone enter his home to violate his honor or take his wealth without defending himself.
The Shaykh : I told you, when you were there, defend yourself. But now, where is the defense?
The questioner : The aggression is still ongoing. The simplest thing is that a person defends himself, and resistance exists, especially for a person’s self, his home, and his honor, because they do not leave any house in a state of safety.
The Shaykh : I do not think you are doing anything but repeating what has passed. If you were there, we would have told you to defend yourself, and in the hadith:. But you are now seeking a different path; you go to fight while you are not prepared. And I told you, why do the Arab armies not fight with you? You do not answer me, as if you are a political man.
The questioner : No. May Allah protect me, I do not know.
The Shaykh : How do you not know?
The questioner : I do not know how a person can see his Muslim brother in distress and in the greatest need for him, and he refuses to extend a hand of help to him. I do not know the reason.
The Shaykh : You must know what order came to them. Do you not know? Surely it is clear to you, you are a political man.
Abu Layla: On the same topic, if there is something.
The Shaykh : He prays, and his recitation in the first rak'ah is whatever is easy from Surat Ghafir, from verse 38 to verse 44.

If you are killed, you are a martyr in Paradise, and if you kill your enemy, he is in the Fire.
فإن قتلت فأنت شهيد في الجنّة و إن قتلت عدوّك فهو في النّارThe questioner : No. May Allah protect me, I do not know.
