Suicide bombing in Islam

[Crazy Cat Lady]

^^^no u got nothin. Ur just instigating stupidity and some people are falling for it.

I asked a question and you refused to answer,true?

[ModerateMuslim]

There's no basis for suicide bombing being xalaal in Islam. All Muslims unanimously agree that suicide on it's own is xaaraam. So how can it be xalaal by adding a bomb to it?

you're confusing suicide iyo sacrifice. people who sacrifice in the way of allah swt, especially with their lives>>>>>>>>>>>>the people who cling heavily to the earth and who think allah's deen isn't worth sacrificing for indeed allah swt will punish the latter group or anyone else who dies upon this branch of nifaq, i.e. the one who has never fought - or at least never tried sincerely to fight - in the way of allah swt.

Suicide Bombing is Haram

because

1. Suicide in general is forbidden

Suicide is forbidden. "O ye who believe!... [do not] kill yourselves, for truly Allah has been to you Most Merciful. If any do that in rancour and injustice, soon shall We cast him into the Fire..." (Qur'an 4:29-30).




2. In turns it goes against the conducts and it kills innocent people in numbers

And fight in the way of Allah those who fight you. But do not transgress limits. Truly Allah loves not the transgressors."

- Qur'an, Surah Al-Baqarah (2:190)

Harming innocent bystanders, even in times of war, was forbidden by the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). This includes women, children, noncombatant bystanders, and even trees and crops. Nothing is to be harmed unless the person or thing is actively engaged in an assault against Muslims.

[Basra-]

In todays world,muslims cannot commit suicide. The only time u r allowed to do suicide, is during Jihad. Muslims and kafir war, where they refuse for u to practice your religion. Today its all about land, politics and bickerings---in others words its human selfishness, has NOTHING to do with Allaah. swt. So, i guess, these jihadiists wanna bes are going str8 to Hell where they belong!

[Nomand]

suicide bombing is haram why blow yourself up? what purpose does it do? if you are fighting in jihad then do the proper way. follow the teaching of the prophet s.a.w guide to warfare. don't make up new rules

[Shirib]

^^^no u got nothin. Ur just instigating stupidity and some people are falling for it.

I asked a question and you refused to answer,true?

I answered it, and here is the answer, same way the killing of Muslims have been being justified since 91, what difference does it make, if its a bomb or not?

But here is the question why did it become Muslim terrorists now, and not in 91, when far more terror was happening?

[RuralMan08]

Terminology is key. You say "suicide bombings". The Muslims call it "martyrdom operations". It is one of tactics used to cast fear in the enemy. There are many evidences of the permissibly of its use in the battlefield but since the sincerity of the persons asking the question is lacking it is probably of no benenfit mentioning them. Allah knows best

"O ye who believe!... [do not] kill yourselves, for truly Allah has been to you Most Merciful. If any do that in rancour and injustice, soon shall We cast him into the Fire..." (Qur'an 4:29-30).

If you look at the tafsir you would find it means do not kill one another by committing:

Tafsir
"Allah's prohibitions, falling into sin and eating up each other's property unjustly,"

the rest of the verse explains that part

"whoever commits what Allah has forbidden for him transgression and injustice - while knowing that it is forbidden for him, yet he still dares to commit it"


Allah bless Camaliyah Istishaadiyah

[FAH1223]

Suicide is Haram

there is no doubt about that

suicide bombing is therefore haram

simple math bro

and btw most of the time suicide bombings kill innocent bystanders, civilians, kids, ect

that isn't Islam and the conducts of war!

[FAH1223]

Sheikh Ahmad Kutty , a senior lecturer and an Islamic scholar at the Islamic Institute of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, stated,


Islam teaches us that Allah alone is the giver and taker of life. As such, we have no right to take our life, regardless of how difficult or unbearable the trials we face are. To do so is a grave sin entailing terrible consequences in the next life. Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "A man had a wound from an injury he had suffered, and (because of unbearable pain), he killed himself. Allah said, 'My servant hastened his fate against my will; hence I have forbidden him Paradise.'" The Prophet also said, "Whoever kills himself by strangling will continue to do so in Hell; likewise, whoever grinds himself to death will continue to do so in Hell."


Thus, by committing suicide one is exposing himself or herself to eternal torments in the next life.

Islam teaches us that life in this world is a test; Allah exposes us to trials, not to destroy us, rather He does so solely to help us grow spiritually. Thus by patiently bearing the inevitable, we stand to gain eternal salvation.

Furthermore, life of this world is the capital to purchase salvation in the next world.Thus, by taking life we miss the opportunity for salvation; for no matter how enormous our sins are, we can still hope to repent and make amends as long as we are alive.

Now coming to your question whether those who take their own lives in circumstances such as those of Guantanamo inmates can be considered martyrs, the answer is no.

Their circumstances are not different from the cases mentioned in the hadith we have cited above. Detainees at Guantanamo Detention Center, who are subjected to inhuman treatments at the hands of their captors, have a better chance of being martyrs if they were to die under such conditions. That is the only Islamic option for them..


Coming to the final part of your question whether one can take one's life deliberately in order to invite world attention to the injustices done to his or her own self or people, the answer, again, is a definite no. For Islam does not sanction such methods; these are methods of people who do not believe in the next world.

As Muslims, we are not allowed to fight for our causes by means and methods other than those that are wholly ethical and pure, and, therefore, sanctioned by Allah. As Fudayl ibn `Iyad, the prominent ascetic, said, "In order for an act to be righteous, it must fulfill two absolute conditions: First, it must be done with the pure intention of serving Allah; second, it must be sanctioned by the Divine Law." Since suicide can never be considered Islamic, we cannot call them martyrs.


May Allah show us truth as truth and help us follow it; may He show us error as error and help us shun it, amen

Yes it is....lakin ur definition of suicide is when some1 despaires of Allah mercy


The mujahideen target only soldiers tanks armoured vehicles, never civilians wallahi... who fed this this BS...fox news?

once again george bush fox news rhetoric


if u had any knowledge of the big time non dabadhilif scholars then u would know Sheikh Albani said it was not sucide but Shahada


Look at this hadith

It is narrated on the authority of Amirul Mu'minin, Abu Hafs 'Umar bin al-Khattab, radiyallahu 'anhu, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, sallallahu 'alayhi wasallam, say:

" Actions are (judged) by motives (niyyah) , so each man will have what he intended. Thus, he whose migration (hijrah) was to Allah and His Messenger, his migration is to Allah and His Messenger; but he whose migration was for some worldly thing he might gain, or for a wife he might marry, his migration is to that for which he migrated."

[Al-Bukhari & Muslim]


If their Niyah is shahda inshaAllah they are shuhadaa'


Please open ur eyes

[FAH1223]

dude in general you look all over the Muslim world and these tactics KILL civilians

what about the mortars too? they hit people's houses time and time again

and the shabaab have done these suicide attacks before and have killed civilians plenty of times in the aftermath of the explosion always indirectly!

their intention may not be to kill them, allahu aclam but when dahir hassan aweys is saying stuff like hes glad shabaab and co. are using civilians as shields, then what are you supposed to believe?

they never confront armies head on and in insurgencies the CIVILIANS ALWAYS suffer because the insurgents hide behind the people!

[Militant]

In addition to the mentioned verse discouraging any form of suicide, there are countless hadiths which make it clear the demise of those who shorten their lives even if their intentions are otherwise:

1). It was narrated from Thaabit ibn al-Dahhaak (may Allaah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever kills himself with something in this world will be punished with it on the Day of Resurrection.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 5700; Muslim, 110.

2). It was narrated that Jundub ibn ‘Abd-Allaah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Among those who came before you there was a man who was wounded and he panicked, so he took a knife and cut his hand with it, and the blood did not stop flowing until he died. Allaah said: ‘My slave hastened to bring about his demise; I have forbidden Paradise to him.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 3276; Muslim, 113.

3). Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever throws himself down from a mountain and kills himself will be in the Fire of Hell, throwing himself down therein for ever and ever. Whoever takes poison and kills himself, his poison will be in his hand and he will be sipping it in the Fire of Hell for ever and ever. Whoever kills himself with a piece of iron, that piece of iron will be in his hand and he will be stabbing himself in the stomach with it in the Fire of Hell, for ever and ever.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 5442; Muslim, 109.

Piece of iron can mean a sword, a knife or any other type of weapon. During the Prophet's time (saw), there was no concept of suicide missions. Suicide bombings are usually a sign of sheer desparation. Is the life of a worthless kaaffir more important than that of a Muslim suicide bomber? Al-shabaab can just as easily kill their target without involving suicide in to the equation. What about the story of the Sahaabi who concealed his wounds from a battle in hopes of attaining martyrdom and then later died? His intention was to die as a Shahiid, but the Prophet (saw) said he was in hell because of letting his wounds kill him. Are these loonies more knowledgeable than Allah & his messenger?

Why doesn't Abu Zubair go and commit it himself? Why is it mostly ignorant young men who are sent off? If they are fighting fiisabiliilah, why do they always run from the kuffaar? Always fleeing like school girls on the first sight of an Ethiopian armored vehicle or an AMISOM patrol? How come in all these years Al-shabaab have miserably failed to gather enough muscle to go near AMISOM headquarter at the airport? Not once did they get within a 5 mile radius.

If Abu Zubair & Hebel Yacqub want to rule by the Shariah, why don't they start with their wives & kids who live in Pakistan? What religion permits for a man to be away from his family for months or years? Same thing with Daahir Aweys whose family live in Egypt. What Islam permits for Al-shabaab to be crusing around desolate Somalia in the latest Landcruiser Prada when the people in Kismaayo are dying from hunger & thirst? They are after power & this world. They all run as soon as a worthy opponent shows up, they have no interest to run a peaceful Somalia. Their loyalties lie with fugitive men who are running for their lives.
