Palestine is an Islamic land; Umar al-Farooq (ra) opened it, Salahudin Al-Ayubi liberated it, and the Khaleefah Abdul Hameed II protected it.
It is not for sale, and it does not accept division between its people, and the one who occupied it, expelling its people from it. Its solution is not a two-state solution.
Instead, its solution is as Allah Al-Aziz, Al-Jabbar said, and His (swt) Saying is the true solution, “And kill them in battle wherever you overtake them, and expel them from wherever they have expelled you.” [TMQ Surah Al-Baqarah: 191].
The highest Shariah obligation, one that surpasses all others, is to support the oppressed and to liberate the occupied land. This Shariah obligation falls not only on the people, but primarily on the armies of the Muslims, for they are the ones who possess weapons and strength.
It is upon them that the great Shariah obligation of Jihad in the Path of Allah (swt) lies.

“...then it is an individual obligation on those who are next to them, just like the individual obligation of Salah and Fasting, and they cannot abandon the duty.”
“The individual obligation then extends and extends to others ... until it is obligatory on all the people of Islam, east and west, in this gradual manner.”
As for Al-Kasani, he states in “Bada’i al-Sana’i,” “If the people of a frontier region are too weak to resist the kuffar (disbelievers) and fear for themselves from the enemy,...”
