Question 42 · defense
Regarding supporters of Imam al-Mahdi in Tal Afar, Balad and other areas attacked by terrorists and ISIS: may the believers join tribes or security forces defending areas under terrorist attack for purposes of self-defense, especially when such areas are besieged and no army is present to defend them? We have heard that the groups in Tal Afar and Balad are besieged, and the office in Najaf has received several questions about this.
Question 43 · defense
We are a small number of supporters from several areas living in the Sayyida Zaynab area. In recent days takfiri forces took Busra al-Sham in Daraa, a Shia area that had resisted repeated attacks for a long time. It finally fell after people were killed or captured, while others managed to evacuate women and children and flee to Sayyida Zaynab in Damascus after some traveled very long distances. A few days later takfiri forces took Idlib in northern Syria, about 400 km from Damascus, and two Shia villages were completely besieged with all supply lines cut. Terrible atrocities are expected if the villages fall, and there is no escape route as there was from Busra al-Sham. Armed Shia factions in Sayyida Zaynab that are fighting alongside the government therefore decided to go to Idlib to open a route for evacuating women, children and elderly people from the besieged villages. What is our duty in these circumstances? May someone who wants to participate in this operation join them, especially since many of us come from those villages?
Question 17 · defense
I am one of the believers in your true Call and work in a security inspection body. At times, offenders are held accountable and referred to the courts for taking people's money through bribes or dealings of that kind. Is it permissible to refer them, knowing that from the standpoint of the Sharia they are corrupt—for example, they take part of employees' monthly salaries or demand money in return for granting leave or fulfilling a particular request?
Question 18 · defense
A person works in one of the security agencies. What is his duty if he sees members of the occupying army passing in front of him at his new workplace?
Question 34 · defense
Should I practice taqiyyah with people when they look at us with suspicion?
Question 132 · defense
During fighting, is it permissible for us to finish off wounded members of al-Nusra and ISIS and destroy their field hospitals?
Question 133 · defense
In Iran there is a popular military organization called the Basij, operating under Sayyid Khamenei. They oppose the blessed Call and describe us as deviant. What is your view of Ansar who join them and assist in their work?
Question 169 · defense
With theft from homes and shops becoming common, may the owner or someone else kill a thief caught in the act, whether in self-defense or to protect property?
Question 188 · defense
After Tal Afar was liberated from ISIS, Ansari families displaced from the city were uncertain whether to return because of continuing security and political risks. Should they return or remain away?
