The questioner : The honorable Shaykh says: Peace be upon you
The Shaykh : And peace be upon you.
The questioner : Is it permissible for me to engage in jihad
The Shaykh : Is it permissible ...
The questioner : Is it permissible for me to engage in jihad in my country, knowing that my family does not agree and does not accept my engaging in jihad? Please inform us?
The Shaykh : He says: Is it permissible for me to engage in jihad in my country? I do not know, unless it is a country where there is jihad
The student: From Palestine
The Shaykh : Yes, and he says: My family?
The questioner : Yes, his family does not allow him ... that his family does not allow him to engage in jihad
The Shaykh : There is no doubt that jihad is obligatory upon the one whose country has been occupied by the enemy, in order to expel them from it. However, like other obligations, jihad is not obligatory except with the ability to perform it. So if a person does not have the ability, then there is no obligatory jihad. For this reason, jihad was not made obligatory upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his Companions until he migrated to Madinah and they had strength, power, and security. But if there is no strength, power, or security, then jihad is not obligatory, because one of the conditions of obligation is ability, and that was not present.
