حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «جَاهِدُوا الْمُشْرِكِينَ بِأَمْوَالِكُمْ وَأَنْفُسِكُمْ وَأَلْسِنَتِكُمْ»

The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: Use your property, your persons any your tongues in striving against the polytheists.

আনাস (রাঃ) সূত্রে বর্ণিত। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ তোমরা মুশরিকদের বিরুদ্ধে নিজেদের সম্পদ, জীবন ও কথার দ্বারা জিহাদ করো।

انس رضی اللہ عنہ کہتے ہیں کہ نبی اکرم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا: مشرکوں سے اپنے اموال، اپنی جانوں اور زبانوں سے جہاد کرو ۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Musa bin Isma'il] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Hammad] dari [Humaid], dari [Anas] bahwa Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam berkata: "Perangilah orang-orang musyrik dengan harta, jiwa dan lidah kalian

Enes b. Malik'den rivayet olunduğuna göre, Nebi (s.a.v.) şöyle buyurmuştur: "Müşriklere karşı mallarınızla canlarınızla ve dillerinizle savaşınız

Sunan Abi Dawud 2504, Book 15, Jihad (Kitab Al-Jihad), Hadith 28. 1 min read

What it means

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) commanded striving against the disbelievers and putting forth every effort in facing them using all available means, according to their ability, so that the word of Allah be supreme. This includes: First: Spending money on making Jihad against them through buying weapons, providing for the fighters, etc. Second: Going forth with one's self and body to confront them and overcome them. Third: Inviting them to Islam through verbal means, establishing proof against them, rebuking them, and refuting their claims.

What it teaches

  • Encouraging Jihad against the polytheists through one’s self, wealth, and speech, each according to his ability, and the fact that Jihad is not limited to physical combat.
  • The command to make Jihad indicates obligation, which can be an individual obligation or a communal one.
  • Allah has legislated Jihad for several reasons, including: 1. Resisting Shirk (polytheism) and the polytheists, as Allah never accepts Shirk. 2. Removing the obstacles that hinder the call to Allah. 3. Protecting the creed from whatever contradicts it. 4. Defending Muslims, their countries, honor, and properties.
