Q&A: Disputes between a major independent state and its subordinate state

Question: Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakatuhu Can agent states or satellite (orbiting) states be in conflict with each other? If this is possible, then how can we explain this, if they follow the same major state? Wouldn’t this conflict affect the interests of the major state that they follow? If there is no such conflict taking place, then how can we explain, for example, what is going on between Iraq and Turkey, or between Iran and Saudi Arabia, or between Turkey and Iran? Thank you. Answer: Wa Alaikum As-Salaam Wa Rahmatullah Wa Barakatuhu The broad outline of the subject is as follows: It is inconceivable that the agent states to the major states will undertake an action that would harm those major states, because following the major states in foreign policy means following the plans drawn by the major states for them or in the policies they implement in every detail. Therefore their external actions are subject to the will of the major states and they c

Q&A: The Sharp Fall in Oil Prices - Sheikh Ata Abu Al-Rashtah

Allah the Almighty Has Protected Ash-Sham and its People for His Messenger (saw)

On Friday 25/12/2015, air strikes of the criminal Russians targeted a meeting place for the leaders of Jaysh Al Islam in Eastern Ghouta. According to the media, this led to the martyrdom of many of them and among those killed was the leader of Jaysh Al Islam Zahran Alloush. This criminal act shows, beyond any reasonable doubt, that the Kufr countries and their agents consider all the Mujahideen and revolutionaries on the land of Sham equal, they do not differentiate between parties, fighters and others. Although the attempts to classify and separate between a moderate and an extremist, and those who accept a political solution and reject this solution, are only pretexts to spread disunity between the people of Sham so they can accuse one another. This criminal act should be a catalyst to withdraw from the Riyadh conference and all negotiations with the tyrant regime that plots against Islam and the Muslims. وَمَكْرُ أُولَئِكَ هُوَ يَبُورُ “And the plotting of those- it will
