Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri, a former Pakistani lawmaker issued an anti terrorism fatwa in London this Tuesday. It stated that suicide bombing was banned by Islam �without any excuses, any pretexts, or exceptions.
 

It is welcome move to issue such fatwa that suicide bombing was banned by Islam without any excuses, any pretexts, or exceptions. Suicide is always condemnable by almost all the religions and nothing new in it. So, it can be counted as a teaching statement rather than issuing fatwa. Similarly, Islamic group has even earlier issued fatwa against any kind of violence/terrorism in general. But, what today need is fatwa against terrorists or terrorists group specifically to pressurize them to stop terrorism. When you can give fatwa against Taslima Nasreen and Salman Rashdie specifically then why not issue fatwa against any terrorist specifically. This is what required in today�s time. Can any of Islamic group dare to do this? It will be welcome.

Oh Aliens... aliens...

Unless a scholar has enough information, all the details, they CANNOT issue a fatwa. Having studies the methods of history- how history is written and thought of, its going to be hard to find true, accurate information.

Rushdie, not that I condone it DID write a book. It was obvious all to see. And why it also created a storm, was that it is rare for anyone - reputable, to issues a fatwa condoning death of an individual let alone a group. And not all violence in wrong. So unless someone has ALL The facts they cannot act upon it.
When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy. Rumi

Someone needs to tell Qadri (He is a televangelist)that he needs to keep his Pisces trait of bombast in check...600 pages  fatwa, OMG, and then he was a buddy of Benazir Bhutto which puts his credentials in doubt and places him in the opposite camp of the people he thought to influence! There is fat chance of any effect cuz it is not his goat that is in the fight in the conflicted zone rather IMO currying favor with the Brits or Canadian where he likes to domicile safely with his megaphone...He should be concerned about his safety after this!
His nemeses would label him as innovator in chief in Islam!
