In such a situation, what should be  the stance of the Muslim soldiers of the invading army? What are they  supposed to do if they find before them their Muslim brethren? <\/p>\n<h3>Answer<\/h3>\n<p>Today, the only basis of Jihad  endorsed by Islam is one that is against oppression and persecution.  This is irrespective of the fact whether this oppression is being  perpetrated by Muslims or non-Muslims. <\/p>\n<div>As  regards the situation you have referred to, it bears many  possibilities. A Muslim is supposed to support the truth and support any  move against oppression. It is obvious that a Muslim country is not  always on the right. When the invaded Muslim country is not on the right  and the soldiers of the invading army know that the country in question  has a wrong standing, then their fight should be considered Jihad.  If, however, they know that the other country is fighting for a just  cause and their leadership is forcing them into committing oppression,  they can leave their service in favor of the right cause. They must be  ready in this case to face the consequences as well. <\/div>\n<p><strong>Answered by:<\/strong> Tariq Mahmood Hashmi<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> 2015-03-04<\/p>\n<button class=\"simplefavorite-button\" data-postid=\"6902\" data-siteid=\"1\" data-groupid=\"1\" data-favoritecount=\"0\" style=\"\">Favorite <i class=\"sf-icon-star-empty\"><\/i><\/button>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If a Muslim state attacks another Muslim state then defending the country obviously is Jihad  for the Muslims of invaded country.
