[Iraq News] A big shot in the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
 group (ISIS) stole 300 thousand US dollars from ISIS Bayt al-Mal in the left coast of Sharqat district, north of Tikrit, Al Mada website reported on Monday.

The Iraqi media outlet stated, "ISIS security official of the left coast of Sharqat district, Duried Amin Abdullah, stole 300 thousand US dollars from ISIS Bayt al-Mal (treasury) that were allocated as salaries for the members of the terror group."

"Violent dispute broke out on the back of the salaries robbery," Al Mada explained. "The ISIS leader refused to return back the stolen amount," Al Mada added.

#2  During the life of Mohammed and his early successors there was no Bayt al-Mal (treasury) as all funds collected for charitable purposes were soon distributed. That all changed under the Caliph Omar under whose Caliphate an official treasury department was created. It is the same Omar who instituted his "Covenant", a series of laws that impacted the infidels (dhimmi). An essential work that deals with the deprivation of dhimmi rights (which are still in part or in whole employed throughout the Muslim world), is found in Raphael Patai's indispensible "The Seed of Abraham"
