If we want to go out for jihad in Iraq, but the embassy does not give us the visa, what do we do?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The interpreter: In French.
Al-Jundi: In French.
The interpreter: O Shaykh, he tells you that, knowing that the lands of the Muslims are one land, and knowing that, for example, in Iraq, for example, jihad in the path of Allah has become, for example, a reality, and he says, we, as Muslims, why, for example, when we go to the embassies of Baghdad, they do not accept that we enter Baghdad, and we are Muslims? They ask, for example, for passports, and we know that in the Islamic states there are no borders? So what is your answer, O honorable Shaykh?
The Shaykh : May Allah reward you, this is...
Another questioner : Knowing that Islamic states, like Algeria, do not allow him to do jihad, and do not allow us to go to do jihad, it is more likely...
The Shaykh : Because it is regrettable that Arab states, even Iraq, until recently were ruled by foreign states, do you understand this? And Islamic states today, in terms of ruling by Islam and applying the rulings of Islam, differ in closeness and distance from Islam, and it is regrettable for us to say the truth that the Islamic government furthest from Islam is Iraq, and this is what leads many people to take sides, even to this hour when they see the hell being poured upon the Iraqi people, they still look at the Iraqi people as a people far from Islam, especially when they remember the Ba'ath Party, and therefore there is no surprise in what you translated from the man that they do not allow it. All Arab states now do not rule by their own opinion, let alone rule by their religion, but rather they consider their material interests, so his going, in addition to the general Muslim individuals who are enthusiastic, does not benefit anything now, why? Because until now you know that the Iraqi army has not proven its existence on the face of the earth, is that correct or not? I mean, what they are talking about in all the warring states is that the land battle, after it started, and they are cautious and they suspect, and so on. So the general Muslim individuals, if it were possible for them to go there, what could they do? The human jihad has not started yet, and rather the jihad that is established, or let us say the fighting that is established now, is only a material weapons fight, and therefore, as we heard, and Allah knows best, these embassies do not accept these individuals, why? Because they, I mean the Iraqi army now, do not want individuals, but they want their food, they want their weapons, they want their money, to use that to fight the enemies, but as individuals, they are available to them, and in an organized and trained manner, and so on. I, in my opinion, although I am not a military person, and I hope you translate this note to him from a purely religious person, I imagine that if these people went to Iraq, they would be a burden on the Iraqi government and the Iraqi army, because they would have to provide them with suitable shelter, and the weapons that enable them to attack their enemies, and food and drink, while we provide them with food and drink from our side, so we would be a burden on them, but when the land battle starts, it is possible that the Iraqi people, at that time, or the Iraqi government, would require physical assistance from the Muslims, at that time, every event has its own news. Please.
