It's not anywhere close to the same level. But there are a lot of Christians around the world who do things that would make Jesus spin in his grave if he hadn't risen from it. They hide behind their religion too.There isn't one, though? It's like tacking on an 11th commandment. You're right, though, they're all about religion. Questionable Islam, considering sex prior to marriage/nikkah is one of the major sins, and, you know, murder. I don't even know how they manage to misconstrue those. It's magical.
Don't want to be too cynical.
But they draw the line at raping women ?
Like burning them is OK apparently, but not raping them ?
These women were brave beyond belief, they were not broken by those shitbags.
Yes they do. Islamic fundamentalists (not only IS, but before that) have always said that the Jihad is an important part of the Islam, I think Osama even called it the sixth pillar of Islam.
IS sees these girls as enemies of the Islam, who failed to comply by their 'laws' and because of that could be killed.
IS is all about religion. A perverted sick version of it, but religion nonetheless.
*sigh
I don't want to derail the thread so I'll just throw this out and stop here...during Ramadan you're supposed to show compassion and avoid conflict, even IF killing of an enemy were permitted it would need to be during the act of combat.
This is not war, this is not jihad, this is not combat. This is cold blooded murder.
If anything the yazidi girls were better Muslims for not folding. If these guys were actually following the religion they should know that pre-marital sex is absolutely verboten especially in the holiest month for Muslims.
You know what, you go preach all of this about this to the fundamentalists who actually believe what I wrote down.
Because it is not me who is coming up with it. Maybe you can use your condescending "sigh" with the leaders of IS and Al Qaeda too when you tell them they are no true Scotsmen.

I do already and will continue to do so.
So you rather take a terrorist view point then what mass majority of muslims preech? Just because Bin Laden thought that there is a 6th pillar to Islam, doesnt make it at all, a fact or even have any tangible support it. Its like me turning around saying I believe in the Quran but I also believe there are many Prophets after Muhammad. Its a pure contradictory of the fundamentals of faith.
Do you also understand the basic concept of what Jihad really is? or do you just believe Jihad is a "war" methodology within Islam?
Do you also believe ISIS are muslims too? The people who killed many muslims, who ordered someone to kill their mother in order to join ISIS, killing of many women because they are nothing but horny perverts, and that lists goes on. All that is due to a religious motivation? Hardly. They are using religion as an excuse to exercise their twisted desires. Point to me in the Quran or Hadith that its ok to burn a bunch of people if they restrain from having sex with you? Pre marital sex is forbidden in many religions including Islam, yet, ISIS are doing the opposite, and then imposing their own laws. This is no different people who believe its in the Shariah that women cant drive, when in fact is the monarchy law of Saudi Arabia.
Im genuinely amazed how gullable people are when it comes to ISIS. It goes to show they have succeeded not only drawing in gullable muslims to join their mass murdering scheme, but also convinced the non muslims that they are muslim and believe the acts are intangent with Islam, regardless of how loosely it is connected.
aaand this is exactly what I mean. Every single IS thread there is at least one.
Yes I believe IS are muslims. I also believe the Westborough Church are Christians. I also think Crusaders were Christians.
Fundamentalist who have a sick view on Islam and follow different rules are still muslims. I know normal muslims do not want to be associated with filth like this and I actually do not associate normal muslims with fundamentalist muslims. But saying these fundamentalists are not muslims is a No True Scotsman Fallacy. And it is getting really tiring.

These motherfuckers. This is beyond sickening. Makes my heart sink.
What nonsense. Adding your own rulings to a religion that is already has set rulings and going against them doesnt make you one of their faith, simply because you going against what a religion that has been established and perfected by the Prophet (speaking of Islam).
Quran states:
“…if any one killed a person, it would be as if he killed the whole of mankind; and if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole of mankind…” - The Holy Quran (Chapter Five, Verse 32).
Its clear how serious killing an individual in Islam is taken, so much it denounces your faith which has been stated by many scholars who have used Quran, Fiqh, Seerah and Hadith to validate these points. Its sheer hypocrisy that goes against the basic laws of Islam, so what constitutes you, a randomer, who have very little understanding of Islam, to say they are muslim when in fact mass majority of muslims who ACTUALLY practice the faith have denounced ISIS (and all the terrorists) as muslims based on facts based on multitude of Islamic books and literature including Quran.

I wanted to make some sort of "Fuck ISIS" reply but it just seems hollow at this point.
I truly hope that these horrific things they are doing cause normal citizens to rise up against them and cast down the terrorist ideals they are pushing.
They probably don't care much about religion, they just want to fuck shit up and feel powerful.. theyre parasites
Based on past debates about radicalization and the intersection between belief and jihadist recruitment, it seems likely that at least some observers will conclude from these documents that ISIS and its recruits are cynically using religion or that the phenomenon really has nothing to do with religion. However, such a conclusion would be unwarranted based on the evidence available, and takes a far too simplistic approach to understanding the complexity of the Shariah and Islamic knowledge in general.
Someone can be an ardent and even (dare I say) informed believer in the cause and justness of the Islamic State without having much knowledge of the Shariah. And the group is certainly happy to propagate its own interpretations through instruction and the dissemination of texts on the Shariah, but it is more than likely that the people joining the Islamic State were already inclined to support these interpretations.

Idk what's worse the albino human potions in South Africa or this ISIS shit. How can people be so fucking cruel?
How you do it definitely factors in. I would take a bullet over getting burned in a cage. One is certainly more cruel than the other.Malawi. Not South Africa.
Killing any human is cruel, regardless of how you do it or where it happens. How many youths have been shot in Chicago alone this year?
Then I really wonder what you think about Shia vs Sunni vs Ahmaddiyah. They all have different intepretations of Islam. So do the Saudi wahhabi.
So please do tell me sir. Who of those are Muslims and who are not? And who gets to decide this? Apparently you. But I am glad that according to that verse there are no Muslims that kill.
Like I said. This is the clearest form of No True Scotsman Fallacy I have ever seen in my life.
this goes without saying but they didn't deserve this.These women were heroes.
Yes they do. Islamic fundamentalists (not only IS, but before that) have always said that the Jihad is an important part of the Islam, I think Osama even called it the sixth pillar of Islam.

That is how religious denominations tend to startKind of confirmed it there. Making up their own shit that nobody follows but them.
Different methods of killing require different amounts of mental effort to perform because the brain treats them differently. Killing someone with a gun is more abstracted than bashing their head in with a rock so it's easier for people to do. You're right in that they're both cruel but the methods someone is willing and able to use to kill does say something about them.The result is often still the same. You die. You can focus on the barbaric nature all you want. But the intent to harm and kill is what it is. And just because it happens in a place you can't point out on a map doesn't make it anymore special, and doesn't make you superior.

It goes to show they have succeeded not only drawing in gullable muslims to join their mass murdering scheme, but also convinced the non muslims that they are muslim and believe the sick acts are in tangent with Islam, regardless of how loosely it is connected.
It is,What nonsense.
Ahmaddiyah - Belief in a Prophet after Muhammad - Contradictory to Quran.
Shia- A divide in an opinion between the rightful successor.
Sunni - Orthodox muslims, but also, can be divided further if need be, into Brewislm, suffism, ahlus Sunni, and so forth.
Wahabism - Interpretation of Ibn Abd-Al-Wahhab, his take on what the Quran meant.
But your point still fails, because regardless of what sect you are trying to highlight, they all follow Quran, which highlights clearly about killing quote i stated. Its not about me to determine who is muslim and who isnt, because as I rightfully stated, if its been denounced by global scholars, then what puts you in a better position then a scholar? Theres even books like from people like Shiekh Al Yaqoubi, titled "denouncing ISIS". You want to bring all forms of killing into it like the killings between Sunni and Shiah, by all means, but i will simply quote what I have quoted above, and any orthodox muslim would tell you the same.
These people need of be destroyed. End of story.
They are convinced they live according to the Quran, just not your interpretation of it.
Saying ISIS aren't muslims is ridiculous. Saying they are bad muslims who wrongly interpret the Quran is correct.

i never really understood why some people find the suggestion that religion motivates bad behaviour so outrageous.
when 1.5 billion people believe that a how-to guide dictated by a 7th century warlord is the word of god, there are going to be some unpleasant consequences.
People here (indonesia) need to see/hear more of this. Too many ISIS sympathizers who probably only see what they want to see or are just anti-west for no reason :

We decreed upon the Children of Israel that whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption [done] in the land - it is as if he had slain mankind entirely. And whoever saves one - it is as if he had saved mankind entirely. And our messengers had certainly come to them with clear proofs. Then indeed many of them, [even] after that, throughout the land, were transgressors.
Indeed, the penalty for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and strive upon earth [to cause] corruption is none but that they be killed or crucified or that their hands and feet be cut off from opposite sides or that they be exiled from the land. That is for them a disgrace in this world; and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment,
Yet Ahmaddiyah consider themselves muslims. However you here decide that they are not.
Also according to your reasoning a Muslim can NEVER kill (because that verse you quoted), so if one does he is no Muslim. That is convenient.
Yet apostasy is punishable by death in some islamic countries. How does that work?
So apparently killing (by state) is acceptable in some versions of Islam.
Well guess what...IS is a state and they have their own fucked up version of Islam. And in THEIR version it is acceptable to kill the enemy. And the Yazidi are enemies.
They are convinced they live according to the Quran, just not your interpretation of it.
Saying ISIS aren't muslims is ridiculous. Saying they are bad muslims who wrongly interpret the Quran is correct.
Tbh I can't blame them entirely. You live oppressed under Shia Hegemonies, these are uneducated poor religious people. They unfortunately are left to cling to these batshits and see them as protectors. But we must point out that there's no hard figures and most are probably against them and have to put up with them or die trying to resist.A lot of the normal Sunni citizens in the areas they hold are fully supportive of them.
Cracked (yes, that Cracked) recently did an article on Yazidi women who escaped from sex slavery. Check it out if you want to learn some more about this...

Serious question, would admitting that some fault lies within problematic portions of the religion itself be heresy?
If so, this isn't a debate, because you are convinced you can never be wrong due to a supernatural doctrine that you cannot question. Nothing anyone ever brings up will ever change your mind or cause you to question your point of view, because more is at stake than losing an argument.
People here (indonesia) need to see/hear more of this. Too many ISIS sympathizers who probably only see what they want to see or are just anti-west for no reason :\
no matter what they say about how they're following religion or whatever, it's basically just a bunch of young guys who are doing whatever the fuck they want and committing heinous acts while getting paid.
They probably don't care much about religion, they just want to fuck shit up and feel powerful.. theyre parasites
