Islam only allows wars if it is done with the intention of self-defense. Self-defense can both be direct and preemptive.

 

The Prophet SAWS never engaged in aggression and he always preferred peace, but when it was necessary, he would engage in self-defense. He also placed strict rules in combat for all Muslims to follow:

 

    Do not cut down trees

 

    Do not damage buildings

 

    Do not target civilians

 

    Do not terrorize the population

 

    Target only soldiers of the enemy

 

    Be merciful if the enemy gives up

 

    Do not continue battling if the enemy surrenders

 

These are only some of the rules.

 

Mohammad Hijab said in an interview with Jordan B Peterson: "While Islam has the ability of making wars, it also has the ability of creating peace treaties"

 

-- Some people would argue that peace cannot exist alongside war, but this is a fallacy, because in order to protect peace and order, you would have to defend it, whether by diplomacy or militarily, if necessary.

 

 

 

Imagine a country that’s being attacked. They get killed, oppressed and they don’t do anything to defend themselves. Where’s the logic?

 

If not, imagine someone trying to break in your house and steal everything, rape all people inside. What would you do? Let them? Or fight them?

 

 

 

He only went to war after being:

 

Exiled from his hometown

 

Surviving multiple assassination attempts

 

Having his daughter mortally wounded

 

Having several of his early followed tortured and martyred.

 

Having their properties seized

 

I don't know about you. But I too would've been really miffed at this. Even then they waited an year for the revelation to come before departing on their first campaign.

 

The message that was sent to the prophet (pbuh) was the final message so it was important that it is preserved and defended. If the prophet (pbuh) didn't fight back the message would've died with him in Makkah.

 

 

 you will know what an incredible, forgiving and loving guy

 he was for example he forgave the person who killed his uncle he said "I can't look at you anymore(obviously because he killed his uncle) but I forgive you " Also you know Muhammad was literally targeted to die for a long time they were hunting for him until Allah gave the command to fight back and even sent angels to help Muhammad (PBUH) in the battle of Badr

 

 

 

Most of the battles he fought were defensive.

 

Islam is a religion of peace, but when your livelihood, personal rights and religion is at stake, you're allowed to pick up a weapon. Violence is only discouraged in Islam for personal reasons like disputes and verbal harassment, it's fairly similar to decent human expectations.

 

 

 

If someone opressors you – punches you repeatedly, despite your attempts to deeacalate the issue and go for a peaceful confrontation, are you going to just ignore it and die in the hands of your oppressor?

 

Its the same reason why police officers carry guns and defence forces exists.

 

You ought to read the conditions of war as prescribed in Islam too. Examples are, as much as possible, do not harm women or children, destory agriculture and livestocks etc.

 

Anyways to conclude learn more about Muhammed wars and you will see it super easily justified and even how he acted after he won the fight still praying still telling everyone to worship one God and never ever took credit for himself and this is just one of the many reasons that prophet Muhammad (PBUH )is one of if not the greatest humans in the world
