No it is not iraqi's fighting the infield invaders, nor are they jordanians nor are they saudis, or pakistanis, they are muslims complying with the command of Allaah to defend the muslim land, in islaam, nationalism is eradicated, in jihaad nationalism is eradicated. The only foriegn fighters in iraq are the american and british invaders.

:w:


Well then, if you are muslim (and I believe you are) and your fellow muslims are complying with the command of Allah to defend muslim land, why are you not there fighting along side them? Why isn't every muslim on this board not there fighting along beside them? Either they are wrong or you are hypocritical in only choosing Allah's commands when they are befitting to you. Which is it?
 
Hash,

To add to my statements above...I found a link -(link removed)- that discusses Shariah and found the following statement:

WHO IS OBLIGED TO FIGHT IN JIHAD

Those called upon (O: to perform jihad when it is a communal obligation) are every able-bodied man who has reached puberty and is sane.

Have you reached puberty? Are you sane? If so, again I ask, why aren't you in Iraq fighting as you have stated that Allah has commanded muslims to do?

aslaam alkyum,

my, you have a lot of hypotheltical questions alhumdullilah :applaud:

well anyway, yes it is true that every able bodied man is obliged to fight jihad, but you have to revue the persons situation. for me it would be better to do dawah for islam, rather than fight, even though i have some training in armed forces, i have more intlectual ability. sp it would be better to apply my brain to do dawah for the muslims. the people in iraq have differnet circumstances, they are forced to fight, because the war is in there 'back yard'.

if you want to get really technichal they are both types of jiahad. one is jihad in political arena, and one is physical fighting. they are equally as important.

wa alkyum aslaam

Regarding your choosing not to fight in jihad...
“Those of the believers who are unhurt but sit behind are not equal to those who fight in Allah’s path with their property and lives. Allah has preferred those who fight with their property and lives a whole degree above those who sit behind. And to each, Allah has promised great good” (Koran 4:95)

Does that mean Allah thinks less of you because you use your intellectual abilities rather than physical might?

Also, regarding types of jihad....I've not seen anything yet regarding there being jihad in the political arena and jihad for physical fighting. Can you provide some references that better explains the differences?
 
aslaam alkyum,

well let me put it this way, do you regard the US political think tank in less light than those who do the physical work?

“Those of the believers who are unhurt but sit behind are not equal to those who fight in Allah’s path with their property and lives. Allah has preferred those who fight with their property and lives a whole degree above those who sit behind. And to each, Allah has promised great good” (Koran 4:95)

im not about to declare that i am some kind of quranic scholar, because i am not. but if i am not much mistaken, politically fighting for islam is a lifetime occupation, i dont know of anybody who fights for islam politically that takes holidays or the weekend of. political islam is 24/7/365 work. therefore i believe it is fighting with your life. also since money is property, and since most muslims calling for khilafah give money for the cause, this is also fulifilling part of the requirement.

Is this your interpretation or that of muslims as a whole? Keep in mind, I'm trying to understand muslim beliefs....I'm trying to determine if this is your interpretation or the muslim interpretation.
 
aslaam alkyum,

well i cant speak for all muslims, but most the muslims i know would certainly regard it this way. but what with new sects emerging terrorists, conservatives, moderates e.t.c you never know what the next muslims thinking.

wa alkyum aslaam
 
asallama alaikum brother they should leave immediately. Bush only invaded Iraq to kick Saddam Hussein out of office.Now he successively done that not to mention he also put him in prison.So there's no reason for the occupation to stay,unless they want to keep on killing innocent civillians. To be honest right now Iraq doesn't seem that it could defend itself,but with the help from other muslim countrys it'll manage.If the occupation left today i'll admitt Iraq wouldn't right away get back on their feet, but if the government and the citizens work together it'll be restored in no time.
