🪶 Intro 

The power of boycott reminds us that faith isn’t only in words — it’s in the choices we make every day.
Refusing to support oppression is a moral act of resistance and a form of worship, proving that even small actions can carry great weight before Allah.

🌿 1️⃣ Qur’anic Verse & Explanation

Verse:

“And cooperate in righteousness and piety, but do not cooperate in sin and aggression.” (Surah Al-Ma’idah 5:2)

Explanation:
Ibn Kathir explains that Allah commands believers to unite upon good and justice, and to distance themselves from harm and wrongdoing.
Purchasing products from companies that directly fund oppression is a form of indirect cooperation in sin — a violation of this command.
True believers support righteousness, not injustice — this is the power of boycott in action.

🌸 2️⃣ Prophetic Hadith on the Power of Boycott (Sahih)

“Whoever among you sees an evil, let him change it with his hand; if he cannot, then with his tongue; and if he cannot, then with his heart — and that is the weakest of faith.”
(Sahih Muslim)

Explanation:
Boycotting unjust systems is a peaceful yet powerful form of resistance.
Even when we cannot fight with strength, we can fight with conscience — through choices, spending, and awareness.
That’s the power of boycott — changing evil by action, speech, and conviction.

⚖️ 3️⃣ Islamic Ruling (Fatwa Insight)

Question: Is boycotting Israeli products a religious obligation?

Answer:
Many scholars and fatwa councils consider it both a moral and religious duty if those products directly support oppression or harm Muslims.
Choosing to refrain is not just politics — it’s obedience to Allah’s command to avoid cooperation in injustice.

🌤 4️⃣ Practical Reflection

Start small — learn what products to avoid and seek ethical alternatives.
Share what you know with others.
Every dollar, riyal, or pound you redirect becomes a statement of faith and dignity.

Your spending can speak louder than words — that’s the power of boycott.

🌸 5️⃣ Sunnah to Practice

The Prophet ﷺ lived consciously — simple in lifestyle, careful in choices, and never supporting harm or injustice.
Following his way means standing for what’s right, even when it’s difficult.
That’s how we embody the power of boycott through mercy and principle.
