Questioned about the hadith: (The people will keep attacking the Ka'bah . . . .) Is the entry of the Americans considered part of that attack?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : I have two questions. The first question is what do you say about the hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): The point is
Another questioner :Sahih Muslim 2883b
The questioner : This is another hadith, this one
The Shaykh : No problem, what is the question? Is the hadith well-known?
The questioner : The question is whether we consider the arrival of America and these multi-national forces as part of this attack, in the sense that it is an attack
The Shaykh : No
The questioner : Yes, yes. The second question
Another questioner : Excuse me, Shaykh, as a completion of the answer
The Shaykh : No. The attack occurs when an army from its own country moves to attack the Ka'bah. As for what happened, unfortunately, it is that the people of the land of Saudi Arabia, as we mentioned in many, many lectures, that the Saudis sought the help of these people to repel an aggression that Iraq, for example, might commit. So the hadith does not apply to them such that we say it includes these people. Unfortunately, the mistake was committed by the Muslims who invited them and sought their help, despite the statement of the Messenger (peace be upon him) in his saying: Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 30:610 What is the second question?
A group will keep attacking, or the people will keep attacking the Ka'bah, until an army attacks the Ka'bah. When they are in a desert land
لا يزال بعث يغزو أو لا يزال الناس يغزوا الكعبة حتى يغزو جيش الكعبة فإذا كانوا ببيداء من الأرضThe people will keep attacking the Ka'bah until an army attacks
لا يزال الناس يغزون الكعبة حتى يغزو جيشAnother questioner :
when they would enter a plain ground
حتى إذا كانوا ببيداءThe questioner : This is another hadith, this one
The Shaykh : No problem, what is the question? Is the hadith well-known?
The questioner : The question is whether we consider the arrival of America and these multi-national forces as part of this attack, in the sense that it is an attack
The Shaykh : No
The questioner : Yes, yes. The second question
Another questioner : Excuse me, Shaykh, as a completion of the answer
The Shaykh : No. The attack occurs when an army from its own country moves to attack the Ka'bah. As for what happened, unfortunately, it is that the people of the land of Saudi Arabia, as we mentioned in many, many lectures, that the Saudis sought the help of these people to repel an aggression that Iraq, for example, might commit. So the hadith
An army will attack the Ka'bah.
يغزو جيش الكعبةWe do not seek the assistance of polytheists against polytheists.
إنا لا نستعين بالمشركين على المشركين
