[Fainnamoony]

Rasoolullaah forewarned us about today's modern terrorists when he said:


من خرج من الطاعة وفارق الجماعة فمات مات ميتة جاهلية ومن خرج على أمتي يضرب برها وفاجرها لا يتحاشى من مؤمنها ولا يفي لذي عهدها فليس مني ومن قاتل تحت راية عمية يدعو إلى عصبية أو يغضب لعصبية فقتل فقتلة جاهلية


Whoever parts from obedience, and splits away from the Jama’ah and dies, then he has died a death of Jahiliyyah. Whoever rebels against my Ummah, killing good and evil people alike, and does not try to avoid killing the believers, and does not pay attention to those who are under a covenant, then he is not of me. Whoever fights for a cause that is not clear, advocating tribalism getting angry for the sake of tribalism, and he is killed, then he has died a death of Jahiliyyah. [Sunan Nasai: Kitab Tahreemu ad-Dam]

This Hadeeth describes perfectly the terrorists and khawaarij of this time. They target both good and evil people. They don't discriminate, they kill everyone, even innocent bystanders just to get to their target. Secondly, they kill disbelievers who are under a covenant - who have treaties with the Muslim governments, and therefore it is haraam to kill them. They advocate causes that are not clear, mixing evil ideologies of nationalism and tribalism with Islaam and Jihaad. Wanting to liberate Muslim countries from foreign occupations, Jihaad in essence, but mixing such causes with nationalism and tribalism. Perfect examples today include Palestine, Libya, Kashmir, Iraq, and Afghanistan.

According to Rasoolullaah all these people who are fighting such causes and using such evil tactics in the name of Islaam are actually dying the death of Jaahiliyyah.
