Decree against Daesh's Iraq announcement
2015-07-16
[DAWN] LAHORE: At least 50 holy mans have issued a fatwa (religious decree) against 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....
's act of banning observance of Eidul Fitr in Iraq.

The Tanzeem Ittehad-e-Ummat Pakistain claimed in a statement here on Tuesday that the fatwa was issued on its request. It said by banning offering of Eid prayer the Daesh committed an act of infidelity because "offering of Eid is wajib (an obligation) and preventing someone from offering a wajib is the severest atrocity... and in the light of Shariah Daesh stands expelled from Islam."

The statement demanded that the Iraqi government in collaboration with other forces should make foolproof arrangements for offering of Eid prayers in djinn-infested Mosul
... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn...
, a city of Iraq presently in control of Daesh.

Referring to a previous fatwa, the statement said the Jihad methodology of Daesh was un-Islamic.
