Attacking churches in jihad?

[Abu Usama]

Salam,

Correct me if i'm wrong, but doesnt it be that the mujahideen are not allowed to attack churches? Okay maybe you could say they were targeting specific military individuals who would have been there, but surely to attack like they did today is going against the sunnah?

[Zaid 'Abdur-Rahman]

Nope, attacking churches simply because they are places of worship are wrong.
Also, in regards to dhimmies living in muslim lands, their places of worship are also protected.

I don't really think anyone who explodes car bombs outside people's places of worship and injures women and children could be classified as "mujahideen". Nationalistic, blinded and bigoted fighters perhaps..

Attacks such as this have exactly zero value in terms of good - the only thing they do is serve to increase fitnah and fasaad across the land and make Iraq ever more dangerous for those people inside, destroying and damaging human life to further the motives and plans of the perpetrators. And no, military targetting is not a good excuse - let others speak of collateral damage, not us..

Agree with bro Mossy..also the beheading thing...its become a copy cat thing...zarqawi lot started it then it went to al-qaida lot abdul azeez muqrin and them done it too to paul jhnsn and thats how they were killed...then goes to kashmeeri bros who r doing the same thing...it doesnt quiet make sense...the al-qaeeda lot...mostly muslims have been killed or injured in their attacks...like say for instance the riyadh boming on 17 ramadhan...The only people who wouldnt do this sort of thing is the TALIBAN...
However reg the killing of women and children: if the mujahideen are sure that there will be great loss to kuffar but they also know that women and children will die if they go ahead with the attack..then in this case it is jaiz to go ahead and attack...even after knowung that there is women and children...but i still dont undertsand why zarqawi lot do all this?...beheading...and its like become a habit coz every two three days ull hear that theve grabbed hold of men and r threatening to kill em...wallahu aalam

They havent got anything out of it besides a bad name...i wouldnt call them mujahideen it would be very wrong to call them mujahideen..in war tone countries thats how it hapens gets all messed up and then there like 70 diffrent groups...most of them doing the wrong things but think they are doing right..and then they have their big wowers...wowing away behind them..i think its totally wrong...wallahu aalam
