Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds. May peace and blessings be upon His servant and messenger, Muhammad, his family and companions and those who followed him righteously until the Day of Resurrection. Dear Muslims and Arabs in every country! O rulers and leaders of Muslims everywhere! It is not hidden that the current conflict between the Arabs and the Jews is not only confined to the Arabs; rather, it is an Islamic Arabic battle between Kufr (disbelief) and Iman (Faith), Al-Haqq (the Truth) and falsehood, and between the Muslims and the Jews. The Jewish aggression against the Muslim land started nineteen years ago.
It is enjoined upon Muslims everywhere to support their oppressed Muslim brothers and stand shoulder to shoulder with them until the usurped land and rights of Muslims are recovered from those who heinously did injustice to them. Muslims should help their brothers in every way they can, whether by fighting with them or providing money and weapons according to their ability. Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He) says: but if they seek your help in religion, it is your duty to help them except against a people with whom you have a treaty of mutual alliance
Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allâh, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allâh and His Messenger Muhammad (ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﷲ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islâm) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
The injustices of the Jews against Islam and Muslims are known and recorded by history. It is even mentioned in the greatest and most truthful book, the Book of Allah that no Falsehood can approach it from before or behind it, as it is sent down by the All Wise, Worthy of all praise Allah who (Glorified and Exalted be He) says: Verily, you will find the strongest among men in enmity to the believers (Muslims) the Jews and those who are Al-Mushrikûn
And when there came to them (the Jews), a Book (this Qur'ân) from Allâh confirming what is with them [the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel)], although aforetime they had invoked Allâh (for coming of Muhammad ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﷲ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳـﻠﻢ) in order to gain victory over those who disbelieved, then when there came to them that which they had recognised, they disbelieved in it. So let the Curse of Allâh be on the disbelievers. How bad is that for which they have sold their ownselves, that they should disbelieve in that which Allâh has revealed (the Qur'ân), grudging that Allâh should reveal of His Grace unto whom He wills of His slaves. So they have drawn on themselves wrath upon wrath. And for the disbelievers, there is disgracing torment.
The scholars of Tafsir (explanation/exegesis of the meanings of the Qur'an) said concerning these two honorable Ayahs that the Jews used to tell the Arabs that a prophet is about to appear whom they will support and fight the Arabs with him. However, when Allah (Exalted be He) sent Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), they denied him and disbelieved in his prophethood, refused to accept that he is the prophet mentioned in their book, Al-Tawrah (Torah), and exerted all their efforts to fight him and annul his call out of their envy and denial of the Truth which they already knew. Allah (Exalted be He) thwarted their plot and rendered their malicious endeavors vain but they are still doing whatever they can to fight Islam and Muslims and allying with whoever
openly declares his enmity to Islam or even plots secretly against it. Are they not the ones who said to the disbelievers of Makkah: You are better guided as regards the way than the believers (Muslims). Are they not the ones who instigated the disbelievers of Quraysh and those who allied with to fight the Prophet (peace be upon him) and Muslims on the day of Uhud. Likewise, are they not the ones who plotted to eliminate the Prophet (peace be upon him) but again Allah (Exalted be He) stopped their plot. Are they not the ones who gathered with the disbelievers in the Battle of Al-Ahzab and broke their covenant in the same city among the Muslims? Allah (Exalted be He) again warded off their hatred and cunning, desecrated those who fought against the Muslims and empowered His Messenger (peace be upon him) and Muslims over them. Not only that, many disbelievers were killed, their women were enslaved, their money seized. All that was because they broke the covenant and sided with the kuffar and those who went far from the path of truth and guidance.
Dear Arab and non-Arab Muslims everywhere, hasten to fight the enemies of Allah from the Jews and strive your utmost in Allah's Cause with your property and your persons. That is best for you if you were to know. O Muslims, hasten to Jannah (Paradise) whose width is that of the whole of the heavens and of the earth, prepared for the righteous and those who strive patiently in the Cause of Allah. Make your intentions sincere in serving the Din (religion) of Allah and endure yourselves in patience, perseverance, and fear Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He) to win victory or the honor of martyrdom for the sake of making truth supreme and defeating falsehood. You should always remember the merit and virtue that Allah (Exalted be He) mentioned in His Book for those who strive in His cause and what Allah (Exalted be He) promised them of the highest ranks and enduring bliss in the Hereafter.
O you who believe! Shall I guide you to a trade that will save you from a painful torment? That you believe in Allâh and His Messenger (Muhammad ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﷲ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳـﻠﻢ) and that you strive hard and fight in the Cause of Allâh with your wealth and your lives: that will be better for you, if you but know! (If you do so) He will forgive you your sins, and admit you into Gardens under which rivers flow, and pleasant dwellings in ' Adn (Eden) Paradise; that is indeed the great success. And also (He will give you) another (blessing) which you love, - help from Allâh (against your enemies) and a near victory. And give glad tidings (O Muhammad ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﷲ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ) to the believers.
This is the main reason and the firm base for the achievement of victory and success with which Allah (Exalted be He) distinguishes His believing servants and promises victory if they adhere to it, in addition to seeking the material reasons by preparing all they can of power and matters of war, fighting and remaining patient when facing the enemy in the battlefield and being mindful of the enemy's plots. By fulfilling these two conditions, the believers then deserve Allah's victory and His grace to be fulfilled upon them. He (Glorified and Exalted be He) says: and (as for) the believers, it was incumbent upon Us to help (them). Allah (Exalted be He) says: But if you remain patient and become AlMuttaqûn [the pious See V.2:2], not the least harm will their cunning do to you. Surely, Allâh surrounds all that they do.
As for Ma`iyyah (association or being with), it is of two types; There is general Ma`iyyah and a private one.
It means that everyone is equal with regard to Allah's Knowledge as He surrounds them all in His Knowledge, not only the believers. Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He) says: He it is Who created the heavens and the earth in six Days and then rose over (Istawâ) the Throne (in a manner that suits His Majesty). He knows what goes into the earth and what comes forth from it, and what descends from the heaven and what ascends thereto. And He is with you (by His Knowledge) wheresoever you may be. And Allâh is the AllSeer of what you do. He (Exalted be He) also says: Have you not seen that Allâh knows whatsoever is in the heavens and whatsoever is on the earth? There is no Najwâ (secret counsel) of three but He is their fourth (with His Knowledge, while He Himself is over the Throne, over the seventh heaven), nor of five but He is their sixth (with His Knowledge), nor of less than that or more but He is with them (with His Knowledge) wheresoever they may be. And afterwards on the Day of Resurrection He will inform them of what they did. Verily, Allâh is the AllKnower of everything.
Private Ma`iyyah is confined to the prophets and messengers (peace be upon them) and those who followed them righteously until the Day of Resurrection.
