I agree!
I'm sure Western News will report on this in a completely fair, unbiased, and reasonable way, of course.
Meanwhile every Muslim country government bar Yemen: Nah, I don't really feel like it
I'd say Iran and Hizbollah in Lebanon haven't exactly ignored the situation either, and have paid a fairly heavy price themselves thus far.
nothing will happen
I'm only surprised it took so long. I would have thought they'd done this long ago, or at least considered it as obvious. Haven't they been waging Jihad against Israel since its inception?
Most Arab countries are in bed with Israel. Anyone who stokes the flames there goes to jail. Their top imams speaking out is not a big deal by itself but it does indicate a turning of the tide.
Muftis (and scholars) occupy a prominent position in Islam but their departments often sit within the state. They owe their existence to the state governments they're in. Even if this decree carries weight among muslim communities where fatwas are often studied to their minute detail, respective muslim governments ultimately have the final say on whether they're willing to adopt their decree. With leaders like MBS and others, I doubt there's real appetite for change even if the fatwa in question is in line with traditional islamic laws.
Gee, I never would have guessed that would be a result of Israel's actions in Gaza.
Last time they issued a fatwa was in 2017 in response to Larry David's hit play "Fatwa!"
Finally
Fuck all religious leaders. Free Palestine. Religious leaders can suck my ass.
hell yeah 🔥🔥🔥
