UK Muslim leaders back fatwa against ISIL
2014-09-01
[Iran Press TV] British Moslem holy mans have supported a fatwa against the ISIL Takfiri
...an adherent of takfir wal hijra, an offshoot of Salafism that regards everybody who doesn't agree with them as apostates who must be killed...
myrmidon group operating in Iraq and Syria.

The religious decree, which was issued by the head of anti-extremism Quilliam foundation Sheikh Osama Hasan, denounces the ISIL as "an oppressive, tyrannical and heretical group."

"ISIL is a heretical, krazed killer organization and it is religiously prohibited (haram) to support or join it; furthermore, it is an obligation on British Moslems to actively oppose its poisonous ideology, especially when this is promoted within Britannia," part of the fatwa, published in the Sunday Times, reads.

According to reports, the decree was endorsed by six senior Moslem holy mans, among whom are the head imams of Leicester and Manchester Central Mosques. The fatwa is the first of its kind issued in the country.

Moslem Council of Britannia (MCB) also last week slammed the "psychopathic violence" committed by the ISIL cult, calling for an orchestrated attempt by Moslems to halt the "poison of extremism" infiltrating their communities.

The condemnation by Britannia's largest Moslem organization was made following a video release of the beheading of US journalist James Foley by an allegedly British ISIL myrmidon.

the threat level in Britannia was raised from substantial to "severe", on the advice of security experts, meaning a terrorist attack is considered "highly likely" due to recent developments in Iraq and Syria.

#3  A fatwa against ISIS? It doesn't seem as if ISIS much cares about the trappings of civilization. What happens now with a fatwa issued? Anything?

They were, at any rate, until the Crusaders brought to their attention that really, they were only able to do so because we weren't paying attention. Hopefully this time we'll pay attention long enough.
