Question:

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته

Shaikh I hope you are well. May Allah give you Jannat ul Firdaus. Ameen. 
Shaikh I live in the UK and muslims are planning a peaceful protest for Palestine. I learnt that protest are haram but in our mosque they posted an article regarding it making the peaceful protest halal. The link our mosque has posted is below.
-link was removed-
Please could you tell us they have been quoting Ibn Taymiah in this article. Please can you tell us the ruling of peaceful protest?

جَزَاكَ اللّهُ خَيراً
بَارَكَ اللهُ فِيْكَ
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته

وعليكم السلام ورحمة الله وبركاته

This issue was dealt with before

I just wanted to comment on the fact that the questioner pointed out that they were quoting Ibn Taymiyyah

The mere fact that someone quotes Ibn Taymiyyah doesn’t mean that they are correct

Many of the people of bidah quote Aayaat from the Quraan and Ahaadeeth from the sunnah in promoting there Bidah

So if one sees a Fatwaa from someone he doesn’t know and cannot decipher for himself then he should stick to the known scholars and work with them.

Also one must continue seeking knowledge.

Note: I am not condemning or defending the Fatwaa mentioned- I didn’t go through it thoroughly

والله المستعان
وجزاكم الله خيرا وبارك فيكم

والسلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته

Question:
Asalaamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakthu

I currently reside in the West and a try to maintain a connection to my local community and the brothers here, in order that I may maintain good company and avoid falling into the evils associated with bad company and the many fitan that are present here.

As for the communities in my locality, one of the issues that I have noticed to be very prominent and concerning is the views that the brothers and the imams in the area have regarding the lands of the Muslims and the Muslim leaders.

Ever since the condition of our brother and sisters in Palestine has worsened, they have increased in their criticization of the Muslim rulers, governments, and even scholars. From the things that they say are: "The muslim rulers and scholars are silent and refuse to do anything regarding the affair of our brother and sisters in Palestine", "The governments of the Muslim lands are corrupt", "The scholars are controlled into not criticizing the leaders and speaking out against their injustices" and things of this nature. 

From the worst of what they say is that they suggest that the people should revolt against the leaders of the Muslims, they say that those who have acted most honorably are the Shia, they say that Saudi and the Arab nations have taken America and European nations as awliya, and the like of these things. 

The people who say these things are either laymen, or from those who possess limited knowledge of the deen, and I have tried to explain that it is not for us as laymen to discusses these matters, as we do not know the situation fully and we do not know the conditions of Jihad. However, they respond that this way of thinking is inspired by propoganda from the Arab nations.

My questions are, how should I respond to those who say these things? What is required of me to respond to and what should I remain silent about? to what level can I associate with these people? What is your advice concerning my situation, especially given the fact that there does not appear to be any other Muslims that live near to me, and I am worried about falling into bad company?

JazakAllahu Khairan, may Allah increase you in knowledge, wisdom, and goodness, may Allah unite us in the highest level of Jannah, may Allah guide us to that which is pleasing to him, may Allah forgive us for our many faults and errors, may Allah rectify the affair of our brother and sisters in Palestine, and the affair of all the Muslims who are being oppressed, may Allah grant the Muslims victory over the oppressors and the disbelievers, may Allah grant us honor and establish us in the land upon his deen, may Allah have mercy on the Muslim rulers and scholars, and may Allah make us from amongst his servants who are granted Jannah without being called to account.
Ameen.
