Boycotting

Question

What is Mufti Sahib's view with regards to boycotting? I understand that turning to Allah through Salaah and duaa is more important but I wanted to know should we also boycott Israeli products and stores that support Israel? What about boycotting other countries that are oppressing Muslims eg. USA, China?

Answer

We are silent on this matter.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
