The Book of Jihad
Obligation of Jihad
وَعَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا غَزَا قَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ عَضُدِي وَنَصِيرِي، بِكَ أَحُولُ وَبِكَ أجول وَبِكَ أَصُولُ، وَبِكَ أُقَاتِلُ ((رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ، وَالتِّرْمِذِيُّ وَقَالَ: حَدِيث حَسَن)).
Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Whenever the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) set out to participate in Jihad, he would supplicate: "Allahumma Anta 'adudi wa nasiri, bika ahulu, wa bika asulu, wa bika uqatilu (O Allah, You are my Supporter and my Helper. With Your help I get strength, and with Your help I bounce upon the enemy and defeat it, and with Your help I fight)." [Abu Dawud and At- Tirmidhi].
