والجهاد فرض على المسلمين فإذا قام به من يدفع العدو ويغزوهم في عقر دارهم ويحمي ثغور المسلمين سقط فرضه عن الباقين وإلا فلا قال الله تعالى ﴿ انفروا خفافاً وثقالاً وجاهدوا بأموالكم وأنفسكم ﴾ قرآن
المحلى لإبن حزم كتاب الجهاد
Jihad is an obligation for Muslims, but whenever there are those who can carry it out, push back and attack the enemy within their own land, and protect the frontlines of the Muslims, the obligation is lifted from the rest; otherwise, it is not. Allah Most High said: { Mobilize, light or heavy, and wage jihad with your wealth and with yourselves } [Al-tawba 41].
Ibn Hazm, Al-muhalla bi Al-athar [Sweetened by the Outcomes/Historical Accounts], The book of jihad
