Shaykh Saaleh al-Fawzaan [May Allaah
Perserve him] said:
There is no doubt that losing security causes great harm and it is vital for human existence. Humans need to eat and drink to survive and because of this the Dua'a of Ibraaheem [Peace be Upon of him] for this land (i.e. Saudi Arabia) combines provision with safety:
"My Lord, make this city (Makkah) a place of security and provide its people with fruits, such of them as believe in Allah and the Last Day” [al-Baqarah 2:126]
People not sufficed with one without the other. The presence of food and drink can only be benefitted if there is no fear because fear dispels the benefits one may gain from his provision. Connected to this, the punishment of the highway robber in Islaam is one of the worst punishments that exist in Islaam:
“The recompense of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and do mischief in the land is only that they shall be killed or crucified or their hands and their feet be cut off on the opposite sides, or be exiled from the land. That is their disgrace in this world, and a great torment is theirs in the Hereafter.” [Maaidah 5:33]
Because they Islaam came to protect five necessities; religion, body, intellect, honour and wealth. These five necessities is a protection for everyone, whether they are Muslim or Kuffaar living amongst them.
