Review of Religions; For a long time, we as a Community (the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community), have warned others about the corrupt and criminal ideology that is taught in the so-called colleges of Islamic Shariah law, an ideology which is also disseminated through religious lectures and Friday sermons.

These Mullahs – or religious leaders, are in actuality teaching their followers and students, fictitious Islamic tenets, which are completely contradictory to the teachings of the Holy Qur’an. As an example, they are endorsing the gathering of infidel captives and the killing of prisoners whilst the Holy Qur’an clearly states:

“It does not behove a Prophet that he should have captives until he engages in regular fighting in the land. You desire the goods of the world, while Allah desires for you the Hereafter. And Allah is Mighty, Wise.”^[1]

This Qur’anic statement illustrates that Islam does not teach the seizing of captives unless engaging in direct warfare. Furthermore, Islam has forbidden the kidnapping of members of hostile tribes, which was a practice that was prevalent prior to Islam.

Moreover, the Holy Qur’an has also put forth rules for the release of prisoners as it states:

“…then afterwards either release them as a favour or by taking ransom — until the war lays down its burdens.”^[2]

Yet, contrary to the clear Qur’anic teachings above, ISIS ‘scholars’ teach their followers to capture infidel women. For example, one of them has written: “Evidence of the permissibility of capturing infidel women are more than what we can encompass, but we divide them into two sections: general evidence, and special evidence. The general evidence is that the honour of the Muslims is sacred, while it is allowed to violate the honour of the unbelievers, except if they believe or ask for security.”^[3]
