Istihlal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Istihlal (Arabic: استحلال) is a term used in Islamic jurisprudence, or fiqh, to refer to the act of regarding some action as permissible, or halaal; the implication is that such a regard is an erroneous and improper distortion of Islamic law. |
 | | The word "istihlal" uses Form X of the Arabic conjugation of the radical ح-ل-ل meaning "to untie", "to solve", "to dissolve", "to open", "to release", etc. |
 | | Insofar as Osama bin Laden and his organization defend the legality of terrorism and claim to base it in the Holy Qur'an and the Sunna, they are committing the sin of istihlal and become ipso facto apostates (kafir murtadd), who should not be considered Muslims nor be treated as such. |
