Dr Mohammed Tahir ul-Qadri and his Ruling on Religious Freedom

Dr Mohammed Tahir ul-Qadri recently released his ruling on terrorism and jihad. His fatwa discusses jihad and fiqh of violence and force. The 600 page fatwa from the popular Pakistani sheikh, uses the Quran and other Islamic sources to detail the facts in Islamic law towards violence and suicide. As most Muslims know, suicide is considered haram, or forbidden in the religion, as well as unprovoked violence, and the killing innocent people. His detailed and extensive writing quotes numerous, and credible sources dealing with Islam. Hopefully this will clear up some of the misconceptions of Islam that is prominent in the media today. Most Americans have the idea that terrorism and Islam are synonymous; or that blowing up people is something in the Quran. This is simply an unfounded opinion that one can only hope will go the way of the dinosaur.
