44 Ways of Supporting Jihad
By Anwar al Awlaki
Jihad is the greatest deed in Islam and the salvation of the ummah is in practicing it. In times like these, when Muslim lands are occupied by the kuffar, when the jails of tyrants are full of Muslim POWs, when the rule of the law of Allah is absent from this world and when Islam is being attacked in order to uproot it, Jihad becomes obligatory on every Muslim. Jihad must be practiced by the child even if the parents refuse, by the wife even if the husband objects and by the one indebt even if the lender disagrees.
Dear brothers and sisters the issue is urgent since today our enemy is neither a nation nor a race. It is a system of kufr with global reach. The kuffar today are conspiring against us like never before. So could we be heading towards the great battle between the Romans and the Muslims Al Malhamah which the Prophet (saaws) spoke about?
Again, the point needs to be stressed: Jihad today is obligatory on every capable Muslim. So as a Muslim who wants to please Allah it is your duty to find ways to practice it and support it. Following are 43 ways for the brothers and sisters to support Jihad fi sabeelillah:
1. Having the right intention
You must make the intentions of joining the ranks of the mujahideen. The Messenger of Allah says: Whoever dies and has not fought or intended to fight has died on a branch of hypocrisy (Related by Muslim)
A sign that an intention of a person is true is whether they are preparing for Jihad or not. Allah says: And if they had intended to go forth, they would have prepared for it (9:46).
Probably one of the greatest Propaganda pieces in the history of the world.
You’re Spot On.
