Should i Ask my mothers permission to go to jihad in AFGHANISTAN or PALESTINE?
Answer
At present, the Jihaad in Afghanistan and Palestine is Fardh-e-Kifaayah. If the local Muslims are engaged in Jihaad, the entire Ummah will be absolved.
A Sahaabi (Radhiallaahu Anhu) requested permission from Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) to participate in Jihaad. Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) enquired from him if he had parents. The person said, ?Yes?. Upon that, Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) said, ?Go and make Jihaad in them (by assisting them).?
That was the Fardh-e-Kifaayah Jihaad.
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
