About The Book
"Defending the transgressed by censuring the reckless against the killing of Civilians" offer some guidance on the issue of targeting civilians and civilian centres by suicide bombing. The chapter also provides an alphabetical glossary of Arabic terms.
In a Muslim state, decisions on questions relating to ceasefire, peace settlement and the judgment of prisoners of war can be taken by the executive or political authority or by a subordinate authority appointed by the former authority.
The result in Islamic jurisprudence is: if a Muslim carries out an attack voluntarily, he becomes a murderer and not a martyr or a hero and he will be punished for it in the Next World.
The delicate issues tackled in this booklet is based on an article by Al-Muhajiroun which states that those Muslims living abroad are not under the Covenant of Security that apply to Muslims living in the West.
And many questions that spring from such opinions including the opinion that Israeli women are not like women in our society because they are militarised.
