Jihadis discuss legality of buying weapons from infidels
2005-09-13
A discussion concerning the permissibility within Islamic shari’a of purchasing weapons from the “infidels” was conducted on a password-protected al-Qaeda affiliated forum today, September 12, 2005. The author posing the question references the mujahideen purchasing weapons from America during the war with the Soviet Union, which another member believed to be a different case, considering there was an “imperative to get rid of the Soviets.”

Two other members, though agreeing that it is legal within Islamic shari’a to buy weapons from the enemy, diverge in their rationale. One believes that if the weapon cannot be manufactured by the mujahideen, and if once purchased it is to be used for jihad, then it is permissible. The other member asserts that it is legal to buy the weapons, “even from the mafia gangs in Germany or elsewhere,” since the prophet Mohammad borrowed shields from his enemy, thereby making borrowing and buying/selling analogous.

#7  One believes that if the weapon cannot be manufactured by the mujahideen[...], then it is permissible.

Let's consider that a "yes", since your failed culture can't manufacture sh*t.

#5  Small minds need to know I guess. In the end they can't very well make much of anything themselves and never will so they'll have to buy or steal from infidels. It's really tough isn't it.

#3  A friend of mine said infidels use pork residue in the production process of infidel weapons. Honest.

#2  I hereby issue a fatwa that sez that it ain't Kosher to buy weapons from infidels, including WMD. However, stealing them or scamming infidels of their weapons is Kosher. Carry on.
