Shaykh Saalih Ibn Fawzaan
Al-Fawzaan (حفظه الله) stated:
"The actions, disbelief and evil of the Yahood (Jews) is
well known, even (with regards) to (their relationship) with their Prophets.
They killed their Prophets and (also) is that which occurred with Kaleemullaah
- Moosaa (عليه السلام), such as what Allaah has related in the
Qur`aan (regarding) the story of Moosaa and Haaroon (عليه السلام).
The character, disbelief, misguidance and evil of the Yahood is
well known - even towards their Prophets - but what is obligatory upon us
(Muslims) is that we ponder and rectify our deviated affairs and repent to
Allaah because the Yahood have not gained the upper hand over us except due to
our sins. Why is it that we do not hear anyone addressing and admonishing the
Muslims whilst saying to them: 'What has happened to you is (nothing else), but
as a result of your turning away from the religion of Allaah and negligence in
the affairs of the Deen. So repent to Allaah in order that Allaah may aid you
and avert the plot of the plotters from you.'
We do not hear except insult, abuse, and supplication against
the Yahood, but this should be substituted with supplicating to Allaah to
rectify the Muslims and to make them steadfast. And to mention to the Muslims
that they should repent and return to Allaah, and rectify their Deen for the
sake of Allaah. This is the first obligation.
As for supplication against an oppressive tyrant, be it the
Yahood or other than them, then there is nothing wrong with this. It is legislated
to supplicate against the one who oppresses you with the sharee'ah
supplications, the supplications found in the Qur'aan and the Sunnah. But
before supplicating against them, you should supplicate to Allaah to rectify
the Muslims and to make the Muslims steadfast upon their Religion and return
them to the truth. (And) advise, address and admonish (them) with regards to
(obedience to) Allaah. This is what is obligatory."
