What is the position of the upright youth regarding the negotiations that take place with the Jews in Muslim lands?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : This negotiation process that is taking place is based on an agreement between the Arab states.
Al-Halabi : It is not dangerous, Shaykh.
The questioner : Well, does that mean they are going to sign concessions regarding Islamic lands? If a person, for example, is overcome with enthusiasm and goes to fight or do something like that, is this permissible for these people?
The Shaykh : It is not permissible.
The questioner : Why?
The Shaykh : Because it is like that...
The questioner : How?
The Shaykh : Like that one you asked about and we answered you about, meaning the border operations.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : What is the benefit of them?
The questioner : At least, under their cover, there are mobilization operations and something like that.
The Shaykh : And if you call out, you are heard, "O living one!"
Abu Layla : Mobilizing the governments against the Muslims.
The Shaykh : But there is no life for the one who calls out; a wound does not pain a dead man. Do you think now, in your mind, that this is mobilization, while you mean that it kills these people and prevents them from moving toward misguidance? That is what you mean.
The questioner : The lack of movement, standing still, and standing still means...
The Shaykh : This is what I explained to you. So are you convinced that this prevents them?
The questioner : No, it does not prevent them, but it prevents us. It prevents us from thinking and prevents us from being active. It prevents us like that.
The Shaykh : You cannot be active except by committing what Allah has forbidden.
The questioner : No, what is our question? So that we know what Allah has forbidden or what He has not forbidden.
The Shaykh : And why is our answer not our answer?!
Another questioner : Shaykh, there is a question, no harm.
The Shaykh : Yes.
Another questioner : It might be on the same topic.
The Shaykh : It appears to be warlike. The land is inhabited—laughs.The Shaykh : (may Allah have mercy on him)
Another questioner : No, but my question is lighter than his.
The Shaykh : Ha ha, a witness from among them has testified.
Another questioner : I say, what is the position of the committed Muslims regarding these negotiations? I mean, suppose that after these negotiations end, the Jews have a hand in the region and roam freely, and you see the Jews right before your eyes. What is the position of the committed Muslims regarding these negotiations and what follows from them in the future?
The Shaykh : What is the position of what?
The questioner : The committed Muslims.
The Shaykh : The committed ones?
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : What is the position of the committed ones in Jerusalem? What is the position of the committed ones in the West Bank?
Another questioner : We were discussing the day before yesterday that purification and education are necessary, and that the victorious sect has certain attributes, as I said. I do not know if they exist in a specific group, but rather they are scattered here, and perhaps they are scattered here and there. For example, I say for myself, what is my position when I see the Jew roaming freely and doing whatever he wants in Muslim lands? What is my position? That is my question, just that.
The Shaykh : What is your position if you were among the weak believers in Makkah?
Another questioner : Silence.
The Shaykh : You have taken the answer. Glory be to You, O Allah, and praise be to You. I seek Your forgiveness. And I do not approve of you saying "silence." Do what Abu Bakr did, but did he engage in killing?
Another questioner : No
The Shaykh : Peace be upon you.
Another questioner : And upon you be peace and the mercy of Allah.
Al-Halabi : It is not dangerous, Shaykh.
The questioner : Well, does that mean they are going to sign concessions regarding Islamic lands? If a person, for example, is overcome with enthusiasm and goes to fight or do something like that, is this permissible for these people?
