I pray Allah Bless me with what's right to state.
Brother, actually, another way to destroy the disbelievers, is by taking away those things they love the most. It is not just their lives that they love, it is also their money for their material things, their money that they use to enhance their beauty, their money to flash, for cars, homes, so-called friends, and their money that they compete with each other for.
Marketplaces are for those who prefer the life of the world. We go for our needs, they build markets for their earnings. They are against muslims because we refuse to purchase cigarettes, liquor, pork, guns, drugs, etc. This country have many things on their table that we as muslims would never purchase.
I can't believe in Saudi there were burger king and mcdonalds and resturants pretending to be like the west. the meat is halaal, but still why imprint that in the minds of the young, and if evr they were to ienter usa, the first restuarant they go into may just be burger king or mcdonalds.
to boycott against everything that they earn the most---money , is it a threat to their own personal wallets.
Jihad is in many forms; fighting physically, fighting our lower desires, and joining in the right and forbidding the wrong (which boycott ? somewhat goes under?), and spirirtually keeping a good loving heart with patience and compassion no matter what test we have and no matter what others may do to corrupt us.
I pray I've stated what was correct.
