Boycotting Israel
Question
I have done research about boycotting Israel. I have found that if you buying products of which you know a percentage of the profit is given to the Israeli government, then you are actually paying to kill a Palestinian. I feel guilty of murder. What is muftionline.co.za's view in this matter? Should we boycott?
Answer
The kuffaar are one community. I have not understood the difference between Israel and any other non-Muslim country.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
