      The Objective of Jihaad

      As for the One Who Fights for Other Than That

      Jihaad Is of Two Parts

      Jihaad Is Fought against a People Only If They Refuse the Invitation to Islam

      Jihaad Is Undertaken Only under the Leadership of an Imaam

      Only the Imaam Can Organize Jihaad

      Islam Is a Favour upon the Whole of Mankind

      Jihaad Is Legislated until the Hour, but There Are Rules and Limits

      Questions and Answers

      [Q1] Which of the two is greater: the Jihaad of knowledge or the Jihaad of the sword?

      [Q2] Is hearing and obeying those who are in charge of the Muslims' affairs one of the principles of the Salafee 'aqeedah?

      [Q3] Is revolting against the rulers done by way of action only or is it also with the speech?

      [Q4] What is your opinion concerning the one who issues a Fatwaa to the people about the obligation of Jihaad, saying: A leader and a banner are not to be stipulated as a condition for Jihaad?

      [Q5] Your excellence, what is your opinion concerning one who acts in accordance with the story of Abu Baseer (radhiyallaahu 'anhu), (carrying out Jihaad) without the Imaam's permission?

      [Q6] What is the ruling on Jihaad at this time and where do we find it (taking place)? And is it permissible for us to undertake Jihaad beneath the banner of a disbelieving ruler or a Mubtadi'?

      [Q7] Al-Bukhaaree's hadeeth: The Imaam is a shield (junnah); one guards himself with him and fights behind him. Is this daleel for one who says that it is obligatory for the Jihaad to have an Imaam joining his banner?

      [Q8] Some go out for Jihaad in these disunited conditions without the Imaam's permission. Is this correct?

      [Q9] If my father has children other than me and he doesn't need me for anything, there is no justification for him not giving me permission except his fear of me dying. So what is the ruling (in this regard)?

      [Q10] Is it permissible to go out for Jihaad with the Imaam's permission when the parents have conferred their pleasure?

      Translator's Preface

      In the Name of Allaah, the Most Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy. All praise is for Allaah, Rabb of the worlds. Peace and blessings be upon Prophet Muhammad (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam), his family, his Companions and all those who follow them in goodness.

      This book, entitled The Legislated Types of Jihaad , is a translation of a lecture entitled "Al-Jihaad, Its Types and Rulings" which was delivered by Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan in al-Jaami' al-Kabeer (the Great Mosque) in Riyaadh on the 2nd of Rabee' ath-Thaanee in the year 1424H.

      Jihaad is a vital part of the religion of Islam; it is an obligation that is established through the Qur'an, the purified Sunnah, as well as the Ijmaa' of the scholars. It is a lofty act of worship and one of the greatest that anyone could perform. Its importance can be seen in the narration of Abu Hurayrah, wherein the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said: "Whoever died without having fought or having considered fighting has died upon a branch of hypocrisy."¹

      And in the narration: "…has died a death of Jaahiliyyah."²

      Despite the importance of this obligation and its status in Islam, many people are ignorant concerning it, ignorant of its conditions, its rulings and the overall purpose of Jihaad, believing it to be what the media reports of the people who spread terrorism throughout the world, while in fact, Islam is free of the actions that emanate from those people.

      For this reason, I felt it to be of great need for this treatise to be translated into the English language so that the people can begin to acquaint themselves with this lofty affair.

      I ask Allaah to greatly reward all those who aided in bringing this work into fruition. I ask Him to make this work a source of benefit for Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan, those who heard it directly from him, and all who read it. Ameen.

      After the translation of the Shaykh's work, some very beneficial appendices were added:

      A refutation of those who allege that Islam was spread by the sword.

      Commentary of the verse "Al-Jihaad is ordained for you…" (Sooratul-Baqarah, 2:216) by Imaams Ibn Katheer and as-Sa'dee (rahimahumallah).

      Shaykh Fawzaan refuting the claim that Islam is a religion of terror.

      Shaykh al-Albaanee's refutation of a Jihaadist

      It is hoped that these appendices serve as a clarification regarding some common misconceptions regarding the religion of Islam in general and the affair of Jihaad specifically.
