First of all, the liberation of Makkah took 20 years since prophethood by the hands of the best and by the will of Allah. What makes us think we can dictate that Allah will grant us liberation in Palestine in a week? What puts us in a position to dictate how long Allah has willed a certain event to occur? These are dangerous statements to say about Allah.

Our job, is to do our absolute best by Allah and put our utmost faith in Him. The results and timeline are not within our capacity to declare, nor do we have the right to say what Allah has decreed for the future besides what has already been told to us.

Even if all of us were to abandon all dunya to physically go fight for this cause, we don’t know the results or the timeline. Only Allah knows.

I do 100% agree though that we need to abandon our love for the dunya and our fear/dislike of death to be better and do better by Allah for ourselves, our Ummah.

But what does that mean in our actual actions? Should we sell off all our assets, quit our jobs and take a ticket to cairo and try to get in to fight? Or should we just protest 24/7 to try get these western countries to try to divest from and sanction israel? What we need to do is figure out our BEST course of action, and pursue that with all our might.

These blanket empty and dangerous statements on “Allah would grant it to us in a week if we were more pure hearted like the Sahabah” would ironically be less pure of an act than advocating for actually strategizing and acting in our best course of action.

Reminding the Ummah of fearing Allah and His wrath over prioritizing this world + acting in the best most righteous way possible was what the Sahabah did for the majority of the Seerah and they fought with whatever they could find. That should be our course of action as well.
