New poster here. A Muslim who does not support the Islamic State.
I can not say the Islamic State is not Islamic, as they say they are and only Allah knows the truth.
But there are rules for warfare, and every Muslim knows that it is NEVER right to commit suicide, for any reason.
Also, for war to be declared, it would need to be done by the governing body, which the majority of the people in the Islamic State occupied area do NOT recognize as their government. This makes the warfare that the Islamic State declared un-Islamic.
Also many people involed in the Islamic State say that people who are not for them, even other muslims, are kuffar, which as stated in many hadiths from Muhammed (SAW) said, and here is one of them
"Withhold [your tongues] from those who say `There is no god but Allah' do not call them kafir. Whoever calls a reciter of `There is no god but Allah' as a kafir, is nearer to being a kafir himself.'' (Tabarani, reported from Ibn Umar).
If a valid defense can be held to this and other concerns I have I will support the Islamic State.
