A: In the name of Allah, the most Gracious, the most Merciful. All praise be to Allah. May peace and blessings of Allah be upon His Messenger, his family, his Companions, and those who follow him. Undoubtedly, the tribulation sparked by the president of Iraq is a great crisis that brought about many evil consequences. Thanks to Allah, Who ended it by liberating Kuwait and eliminating the oppressor and his aggression. Certainly, this is one of the great blessings of Allah (Exalted be He) and we should thank Him for that and ask Him to set right the affairs of all Muslims and to guide them to all that pleases Him. Muslims have to thank Allah (Exalted be He) much for this blessing, constantly observe the teachings of Islam and keep away from all that causes His anger. Let them try their best to end the split and unite on the basis of obedience to Allah (Exalted be He) and His Messenger (peace be upon him), following the Qur'an and Sunnah, enjoining one another to truth and being patient on it.
In this way, we can clear the negative effects of this tribulation and guard ourselves against its evil consequences and plots and the plots of its advocates. In the Qur'an, Allah (Exalted be He) says: And hold fast, all of you together, to the Rope of Allâh (i.e. this Qur'ân), and be not divided among yourselves He (Exalted be He) also says: And in whatsoever you differ, the decision thereof is with Allâh (He is the ruling Judge). Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He) says: O you who believe! Obey Allâh and obey the Messenger (Muhammad ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﷲ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ), and those of you (Muslims) who are in authority. (And) if you differ in anything amongst yourselves, refer it to Allâh and His Messenger (ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﷲ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ), if you believe in Allâh and in the Last Day. That is better and more suitable for final determination. This is the way to remove the negative effects of this tribulation.
