📖 Quranic Verse & Explanation:

﴿ وَتَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْبِرِّ وَالتَّقْوَىٰ وَلَا تَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْإِثْمِ وَالْعُدْوَانِ ﴾ (المائدة: 2)
“And cooperate in righteousness and piety, but do not cooperate in sin and aggression.”

📝 Explanation:
Purchasing products from companies that directly support oppression is a form of indirect cooperation in wrongdoing. As Muslims, we are commanded to stand against injustice in all forms.


🕋 Prophetic Hadith:

The Prophet ﷺ said:
“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.” (Muslim)

📝 Explanation:
Boycotting unjust systems is a peaceful and powerful way to resist oppression. Even if we can’t fight with weapons, we can fight with choices — and our wallets.


⚖️ Islamic Ruling (Fatwa):

Q: Is boycotting Israeli products a religious obligation?
A: Many scholars and fatwa councils consider it a moral and religious duty if those products are directly linked to supporting the Zionist occupation or harming Muslims.


🌟 Practical Advice:

Start small. Learn what products to avoid and seek ethical alternatives. Share what you know. Every riyal, dollar, or pound you redirect is a message of dignity and resistance.


✨ Sunnah to Practice:

The Prophet ﷺ lived simply and consciously — avoiding harm and injustice in his daily choices. Let’s embody his mercy by standing with the oppressed through meaningful actions.
