Yousuf Al-Qaradhawi and the Jihad in Syria
No parental consent is required to wage Jihad in Syria
“The Jihad in Syria is now a personal duty incumbent upon all Muslims. This jihad is no longer a collective duty. There is a type of jihad that constitutes a collective duty, which, if waged by some, does not concern the others. On the other hand, there is a type of jihad in which everybody must participate – each according to his capabilities. The Jihad in Syria is a duty incumbent upon the entire people. There is a group that has been fighting for two years and has just entered the third, and whoever is capable must help this group. Parental consent is not required in this case“.
