Never happened. Shabab have explicitly denied it.
I also know of no Quranic justification for exhuming bodies, even if they were Italians buried in Somali soil; and I say this about Ceyrow, knowing he was not tecnically a Shabaabbi. The ideologies are close enough.
I'm not asking for lack of justification. I'm asking for condemnation.
Takfiir, and subsequent actions permitted by takfiir, puts a Muslim on dangerous ground. He would best be backed up by the sound religious judgement of a competant ulemma, which the Shabaab clearly lacks.
Naturally. 'Competent ulema' is a subjective term. I find that their religious guidance is more than competent, and their takfir is justified.
Genuine shariica does not condone the rash acts of an uneducated mob.
Agreed. Good thing Shabab aren't an uneducated mob.
