The Concept of Victory and the General State of the Ummah

So, does every Muslim have to be a righteous, pious, and virtuous person, otherwise Allah will not grant them victory? No, that is not the meaning of the statement.

However, what is required is that there should be a general state of jihad in the Ummah, with support and assistance from the society to its mujahideen in a wise and correct jihad. This should be the prevailing condition and the general characteristic of the society, and this should be the loudest voice in the society, even if there are sinners, evil individuals, and hypocrites, but they are hidden and ostracized.

Understanding Divine Laws and Responsibility

Of course, my brothers, all of this talk is not for self-flagellation or for placing the burden of responsibility on everyone for what the traitors and oppressors do in the Muslim lands. However, we say this so that we may understand the laws of our Lord, the Most High, and so that we do not allow ourselves to fall short in the right of Allah and in the right of our brothers.

Then, after that, we add the sin of having bad thoughts about Allah and complaining about His decrees if He does not bring victory to us all, even though we are not deserving of it.

Some brothers objected to the statement: 'Permit it for them, O Duwayri, not for us!' The main objection was: 'As if you are saying that all Muslims must be pious for victory to descend.' The response: I had clarified that this is not what was intended. This was in the talk 'Will Allah Grant Victory to Gaza?' which we published a week after Operation Al-Aqsa Flood. Here is a clip from it. We strongly advise reviewing the full talk, as it is important for this sensitive phase of events. Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGe2rR-EMrg&t=527s
