Several prominent Muslim scholars have issued a rare religious decree or “fatwa”, calling on all Muslims and Muslim-majority countries to wage “jihad” against Israel after 17 months of devastating war against Palestinians residing in the besieged enclave.
Ali al-Qaradaghi, the secretary general of the International Union Of Muslim Scholars (IUMS), an organisation previously led by Yusuf al-Qaradawi, called on all Muslim countries on Friday “to intervene immediately militarily, economically and politically to stop this genocide and comprehensive destruction, in accordance with their mandate”.
“The failure of the Arab and Islamic governments to support Gaza while it is being destroyed is considered by Islamic law to be a major crime against our oppressed brothers in Gaza,” he said in the decree comprising some 15 points.
Qaradaghi is one of the region’s most respected religious authorities and his decrees carry significant weight among the world’s 1.7bn Sunni Muslims.
I’m sure Western News will report on this in a completely fair, unbiased, and reasonable way, of course.
Meanwhile every Muslim country government bar Yemen: Nah, I don’t really feel like it
I’d say Iran and Hizbollah in Lebanon haven’t exactly ignored the situation either, and have paid a fairly heavy price themselves thus far.
It’s very surprising, but it’s due to larger forces at play.
The larger forces at play:
Lol I was thinking the whole western world accepting all Israeli transgressions against international law, and rewarding her with political shielding, vetos, and their own citizens tax money… And double standards.
No where in the world is it acceptable to use a military against unarmed civilians with sustained force. But Israel gets her pass… Why?

I mean yeah
A jihad against the Zionist Entity is a jihad I can get behind.
Finally
The first steps include: boycott, and divest
The Boycott Divest Struggle movement
They’ve been happening already

There are apps you can get for android & iPhone where you can check is a product is from Israel or an Israeli company and will give latest news and updates
I agree!
Gee, I never would have guessed that would be a result of Israel’s actions in Gaza.
hell yeah 🔥🔥🔥
nothing will happen
The military industrial complex is counting on it
I’m only surprised it took so long. I would have thought they’d done this long ago, or at least considered it as obvious. Haven’t they been waging Jihad against Israel since its inception?
Most Arab countries are in bed with Israel. Anyone who stokes the flames there goes to jail. Their top imams speaking out is not a big deal by itself but it does indicate a turning of the tide.
This could be pretty bad…

Lets hope they can bring peace to the region. The secularists sure won’t.

"how about declaring war against Hitler specifically? And the top leaders of Germany, perhaps, but leave the rest alone.
Seriously, if you want to stop the violence, put leaders of both Germany and Jewish partisan organizations against a wall and have both groups be led to peace by actual reasonable people"
So turns out their religion is as much hypocritical BS as christianity or any other.
What are you talking about you stupid cracker
Yeah thats definitely the here you freak
All of the abrahamic religions are pretty awful.

Defending the weak and oppressed is a core pillar of Islam. Its not hypocritical .
Yet only Yemen really does it and countries like Saudi Arabia or UAE are in bed with Israel. How many of muslim (sunni i guess since it was sunni fatwa) majority countries will follow this fatwa?
Terms and conditions may apply.
So are they advocating to take in refugees?
Many have, but that’s the thing Israel is still committing genocide if Palestinians leave their home.
