	War Ethics in Islam - IslamonLine.net - Ask The Scholar
		In war, as it is in peace, the instructions of Islam are to be observed.
		Islamic war was one of liberation and not of compulsion.
		Whether Arab or Egyptian, Muslim or Christian, Islam built up that FELLOWSHIP that humanity aspires to, in equality and fraternity.The story is well known of the running contest held in Egypt and won by an Egyptian to the dismay of an Arab competitor who was the son of `Amru Ibn Al-`Aas, governor of Egypt.

	The war for Islam - The Boston Globe
		Never before in the history of Islam had representatives of every major sect and school of law assembled as a single body, much less come to terms on issues of mutual concern.
		To be sure, unlike Christianity, Islam has never had anything like a ``Muslim pope" or a ``Muslim Vatican." Religious authority in Islam is not centralized within a single individual or institution; rather, it is scattered among a host of exceedingly powerful clerical institutions and schools of law.
		By seizing the power of interpretation from the iron grip of the clerical institutions, these individuals are not only actively reinterpreting Islam according to their own evolving needs, they are shaping the future of this rapidly expanding and deeply fractured faith.

	Jihad Watch: Islam 101
		Islam 101 is a condensation of the book and documentary with the aim of lending clarity to the public understanding of Islam and of exposing the inadequacy of prevailing views.
		Islam is concerned with the question of jihad and the drafting and the mobilisation of the entire Umma {the global Muslim community} into one body to defend the right cause with all its strength than any other ancient or modern system of living, whether religious or civil.
		Islam is less a personal faith than a political ideology that exists in a fundamental and permanent state of war with non-Islamic civilizations, cultures, and individuals.

	abu al-Ala al-Mawdudi: RIGHTS OF ENEMIES AT WAR
		During a war, the Prophet saw the corpse of a woman lying on the ground and observed: "She was not fighting.
		If in a war the Muslim army occupies an area of the enemy country, and is encamped there, it does not have the right to use the things belonging to the people without their consent.
		Islam has categorically prohibited its followers from disgracing or mutilating the corpses of their enemies as was practiced in Arabia before the advent of Islam.

		It is a war, they say, that the United States and Europe declared decades ago in sending troops to Muslim lands and in cementing its "special relationship" with Israel.
		"Extremism is the enemy of Islam," Grand Imam Muhammad Sayyid Tantawi of the prestigious Al-Azhar mosque in Cairo declared at a conference of Islamic scholars in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, in 2004.

	Islamic military jurisprudence - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The rules of war in Islam are the basic religious laws of war governing the military conduct of the mujahideen [those who engage in Islamic holy war–jihad ("struggle")].
		Generally, a prisoner of war could be (at the discretion of the military leader): freed, enslaved for the purposes of labor, or sold on the slave market.
		For such mujahideen movements, the execution of prisoners of war is a powerful political weapon (particularly in asymmetric warfare), while the ransoming and enslaving of prisoners of wars is a lucrative source of funding for their militant movements as well as a source of personal pleasure.

	Islam's attitude towards war
		Some have tended to criticize Islam for allowing war and even ordering it to put an end to the domination of injustice and oppression, and to help the oppressed and establish a social atmosphere of freedom where the truth can be preached.
		As for modern civilization, it is not Islam which is responsible for the millions of deaths in the Soviet Union and communist China; it is not Islam which caused the Soviet/Russian massacres in Afghanistan and Chechnya and the brutal suppression of freedom movements in Hungary and Czechoslovakia.
		Islam is, first of all, a religion arranging the relation between God and humanity and is based on sincere belief.

	Pseudo Christianity and Islam the holy war continues
		Islam controls the masses by force and when it has control it does not tolerate other religions or those who do not adhere to its dictates.
		My point is that the leaders of Islam will recognize him as their concept of God and the followers of this counterfeit god will use the world network already in place in Islam to rapidly bring in the forced world religion and political system of the Antichrist.
		Islam is a rising force in the world with a "God" who has all the characteristics of Satan.

	The Ayn Rand Institute: A War against Islam
		Islam, we have been told again and again, is really "a religion of peace." Perhaps the reason we have to be told this so many times is because it so obviously contradicts the facts.
		From its inception, Islam was a theocratic religion that imposed its dogma by the sword.
		Islam is the driving force behind every major conflict in the Middle East--and, by one calculation, it is behind about half of the world's armed conflicts, from Algeria to the Philippines.

	BUSH'S UNDECLARED WAR... PROMOTES ISLAM
		In the article, Mathes exposed the belief system of Islam by getting a Muslim imam to admit that all followers of Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of the same faith so they can go to "Heaven".
		Simply because Islam is a barbarous religion does not justify the continuance of an unconstitutional undeclared war versus Iraq.
		This is a "war" that cannot be possibly won because the enemy of "terrorism" is not a belief system or a nation, but is merely a military tactic.

	The Command of War in Islam
		That is, when war has been waged by the aggressors, then permission to fight in self defence is given to the believers (Abdullah Yusuf Ali).
		All efforts are to be made to avert war, and only when avoidance has become impossible is battle to be resorted to in self defence.
		From this we learn that the war against fitna was a war of limited duration, not meant to be engaged in beyond the point of its specific purpose being served.

	View Point: The Pakistani General Declares War -- On Islam
		Pervez Musharraf's speech to the nation on January 12 was a formal declaration of "the real war," for which all the necessary steps up to propaganda were already undertaken by the real actors of the war.
		In the final analysis we much keep in mind that Islam can neither be exploited by a few religious leaders sticking to their respective branches while the core of Islam is under attack, nor can it be moderated and liberalised, as Musharraf and his company dream of.
		Our "real war" should be to debate how best can we apply Islam's golden principles in social, political, economic and social life, and assure the "real warriors" that an Islamic government would never pose a threat to their interests.

	War ethics in Islam (Site not responding. Last check: )
		War is decreed in Islam in self defense to defend Islam (rather than to spread it); Islam also allows war if an Islamic state comes under attack, or if another state is oppressing its own Muslims.
		This indicates that war in Islam is only a mean to ward off aggression and not a mean to impose Islam as a religion; as some may claim.
		War in Islam should be conducted in a disciplined way according to the principles of Allah’s justice; so as to avoid injuring non-combatants with the minimum necessary force without anger and with humane treatments towards prisoners of war because Islam is in favor of peace and against violence.

	Madrassas and the Notion of a "War on Islam" [Weblog] - Daniel Pipes
		Madrassas and the Notion of a "War on Islam"
		Moussa's relatively mild statement fits into a larger context of increasingly alarmist claims that the West is engaged in a "War on Islam." That, for instance, is the title of two wild-eyed, conspiracist books in English and no less than 14,000 mentions at google.com.
		This topic needs to be addressed by politicians: No, it is not a war on Islam, nor is it a clash of civilizations, but it is a war on a totalitarian ideology, a war that Muslim governments (including the Algerian, Egyptian, Turkish, and Afghan) are fighting with no less determination than are Western ones.

	"Open Doors and Open Windows. Silence About War With Islam" (Site not responding. Last check: )
		To declare war on Islam or to invade Saudi Arabia, would be to end the fortunes of many who fund the Republican party and have their fingers on foreign policy.
		I happen to agree with the basic premise that we are in a war with Islam, a war that started not on 9/11/2001, but really in the late 1970s with the downfall of the Shah of Iran and the rise of the anti-West Islamic fundamentalists in Iran.
		If the West publically declares war on all of Islam, instead of the terrorist fanatics or Islamofacists like Osama and Saddamn, the West risks getting more of the sitting-on-the-fence Islams (which may or may not be a silent majority) to join forces with their more fanatical brethren.

		A year and a half later, polemicists heaping scorn on Islam had begun working their way into the mainstream and making the New York Times Best Seller List—and they were not apologizing.
		The book conveys a general sense that America is at war with Islam itself anywhere and everywhere: the contemporary Muslim world...is depicted as one great cauldron of hate, murder, obscurantism, and deceit.
