ٱلَّذِينَ أُخۡرِجُواْ مِن دِيَٰرِهِم بِغَيۡرِ حَقٍّ إِلَّآ أَن يَقُولُواْ رَبُّنَا ٱللَّهُۗ
This is indicative of the wisdom behind Jihad, the purpose of which is to establish the religion of Allah, and stand up to those disbelievers who are persecuting the believers.Al-Saadi: 539.
Question: The verse points to one aspect of the wisdom behind ordaining Jihad. Explain.
وَلَوۡلَا دَفۡعُ ٱللَّهِ ٱلنَّاسَ بَعۡضَهُم بِبَعۡضٖ لَّهُدِّمَتۡ صَوَٰمِعُ وَبِيَعٞ وَصَلَوَٰتٞ وَمَسَٰجِدُ يُذۡكَرُ فِيهَا ٱسۡمُ ٱللَّهِ كَثِيرٗاۗ
This verse reinforces the permission to fight, and reveals its benefit. It is as saying: If it was not for the fighting, the disbelievers would have dominated the Muslims and destroyed their religion. Ibn Juzay: 2/59.
Question: There is a great wisdom behind Jihad in that it preserves Islam. Explain.
وَلَوۡلَا دَفۡعُ ٱللَّهِ ٱلنَّاسَ بَعۡضَهُم بِبَعۡضٖ لَّهُدِّمَتۡ صَوَٰمِعُ وَبِيَعٞ وَصَلَوَٰتٞ وَمَسَٰجِدُ
This indicates that the countries in which people feel safe to worship Allah, the mosques are maintained, and all the rituals of Islam are established, are part of the virtue resulting from the efforts of those who strive in Jihad, for by virtue of their blessed efforts Allah warded off the disbelievers from that country. Al-Saadi: 539.
Question: The Mujahidin do favors for Muslims. Explain.
وَلَوۡلَا دَفۡعُ ٱللَّهِ ٱلنَّاسَ بَعۡضَهُم بِبَعۡضٖ لَّهُدِّمَتۡ صَوَٰمِعُ وَبِيَعٞ وَصَلَوَٰتٞ وَمَسَٰجِدُ يُذۡكَرُ فِيهَا ٱسۡمُ ٱللَّهِ كَثِيرٗاۗ
The meanings of these houses of worship are exclusive to the nations who had scriptures over a long time. No mention is made of Magians or polytheists, because they do not have what needs to be protected; moreover, the mention of Allah is only made by the people who were given divine Sharia. Ibn Atiyah: 4/125.
Question: This verse does not mention the houses of worship for Magians or polytheists. Why?
وَلَيَنصُرَنَّ ٱللَّهُ مَن يَنصُرُهُۥٓۚ
Meaning: The one who supports Allah's religion and His allies. This is a promise that implies encouragement to fight. Ibn Juzay: 2/59.
Question: What is the pre-condition for achieving victory?
ٱلَّذِينَ إِن مَّكَّنَّٰهُمۡ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ أَقَامُواْ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَءَاتَوُاْ ٱلزَّكَوٰةَ وَأَمَرُواْ بِٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِ وَنَهَوۡاْ عَنِ ٱلۡمُنكَرِۗ وَلِلَّهِ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلۡأُمُورِ ٤١
Whoever performs these deeds, Allah will give him victory over his enemy. Ibn Taimyah: 4/434.
Question: What are the duties of Mujahidin when they are given authority in the land?
فَإِنَّهَا لَا تَعۡمَى ٱلۡأَبۡصَٰرُ وَلَٰكِن تَعۡمَى ٱلۡقُلُوبُ ٱلَّتِي فِي ٱلصُّدُورِ ٤٦
Meaning: The real harm comes from blindness of the heart, as for blindness of the eye, it is harmless to one's religion. Al-Baghawi: 3/224.
Question: What is the harmful blindness that leads to man's demise?
