Q: A Turkish fellow sold his wife's gold and used the money to come
to
Afghanistan
to take part in Jihad (fighting in the Cause of Allah). Then, he was killed in there.
Referring to some Turkish members of the committee, they told us that the wife and children of the killed person are in dire need of financial assistance, knowing that they
live in
Turkey,
and not in
Pakistan.
Is it permissible to help them by giving them some of the money allocated to committee managing the affairs of the Afghani Mujahids (ones fighting in the Cause of Allah)?
A:
There is nothing wrong with giving the family of the deceased Mujahid, who are living in or outside
Pakistan, financial assistance deducted from the money allocated to the Mujahids at the discretion of the committee which is responsible for distributing the money mentioned in question.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
