so they took inspiration from Muhammad marrying 9 year old Aisha.
"Are you willing to sacrifice the fat job you have got, the big car you have got, the family you have? Are you willing to sacrifice this for the sake of Allah? "
but Bolly said the recruiters were luring people with BMWs and 5star living , but this guy is offering jihad and Allah and asks them to forsake their cars and jobs .
Muhammed started on them a bit younger , I just hope they won't be emulating him too closely
They already have.
Nine-year-old Yazidi sex slave raped by 10 Isis militants is now pregnant – and could die delivering the baby
A nine-year-old girl who was taken as a sex slave by Isis was raped by 10 militants and is now pregnant, it has been reported.
According to an aid worker, the girl is a member of the Yazidi minority religious group, which faces persecution across Isis-held territory.
She has been flown out of Iraq by a Kurdish aid agency, the Toronto Star reported, and is now being treated by a medical charity in Germany.
But Yousif Daoud, a Canada-based aid worker who has just returned from the region, told the Star the girl was “mentally and physically traumatised” after the abuse she had suffered, and there are fears she may yet not survive her ordeal.
No they are being cruel, purposefully and angrily.
They are about as religious as Son of Sam, who ironically was a church warden.
When ISIS break up, I predict you will hear the truth about them from those who fled or survived, and it will be that they were delusional and told big porkies to get people there, and force to keep them there.
Seriously, they are so concerned about pure Muslims that they will accept non Muslims to pollute the flock. Sounds political to me.

Furthermore the 120 scholars you gave us, and other's, support killing apostates.
So you have only ever presented the Islamic religion as the real source of the various horrible acts many do in the name of that religion.
Child marriage didn't become the norm of Western culture, I wonder why.
More apologetics, this time for child marriage, rape and slavery.
IS are showing the word just have dangerous Islam.
Those in denial are delusional.
It might not have become the norm but it did exist and it existed in Biblical culture, not just Islamic culture.
It still exists related to poverty and lack of education, in India, South America and non-Muslim groups.
To generalize and say this is purely an Islamic problem, can stir up emotions, especially with little red emoticons, but isn't so logical when you examine it.
As the Muslim woman from Harvard has, and wrote a book on the subject.
Pedophilia was not nor has ever been the norm in any society, though Islam deem's such acts acceptable.
And so it occurs in other cultures as well. If you suggest it is only a problem of Islamic cultures ( not sure you are suggesting that?) then you are giving out misinformation.
Child marriage positively correlates with poverty and lack of education. It is more culturally linked , than religion linked. This was documented on another thread.

We had an account from a French hostage who said he never saw a Qu'ran or heard religion, only politics. Enforcing rules doesn't make them deeply religious. How much are you praying if you are raping, killing, destroying villages and art, and burying your dead? Not much time left for religion, is there. But you can keep trying to make ISIS look deeply religious, and maybe you will convince someone.
ISIS aren't even a medieval group. They are extremely modern and co-opted western marketing and war fare techniques. I've heard enough of the 7th Century stuff to know it is b.s. They didn't have plastic IDs in the 7th Century. Obviously ISIS is selective in following Mohammed, especially when it comes to hadith of respect, mercy, peace and reason over violence.
And so it occurs in other cultures as well. If you suggest it is only a problem of Islamic cultures ( not sure you are suggesting that?) then you are giving out misinformation.
Horrible acts occurring in other culture's is of no relevance, you certainly cannot tell the child they should have been raped because other children are raped in other cultures'.
(not sure you are suggesting that?)
Child marriage positively correlated with poverty and lack of education. It is more culturally linked , than religion linked. This was documented on another thread.
There can be many reason's for child marriages in many situations, one reason does not mean the other does not happen.
In the same way there are many reasons for murder, one instance does not make the other 'not happen'.
Child marriage and pedophilia is a religious element in Islam, and many Muslim's emulate said practices because of this.

As the Muslim woman from Harvard has, and wrote a book on the subject.
In the latest edition of Dabiq, the Islamic State’s slick, English magazine, the group offers a theological justification for capturing "infidel" women to be used as sex slaves. The brutal group is holding thousands of Yazidi women and girls and subjecting them to horrific violent, sexual abuse.
The magazine goes on to explain what happened when Islamic State fighters captured the Sinjar region of Iraq, which was inhabited by the ancient population of the Yazidis:
“After capture, the Yazidi women and children were then divided according to the Shari’ah amongst the fighters of the Islamic State who participated in the Sinjar operations, after one fifth of the slaves were transferred to the Islamic State’s authority to be divided as khums [the obligatory tithe of one-fifth of all war spoils that jihadi fighters must pay to the caliph].”
The article proudly announces the revival of the sharia institution of slavery of infidels, saying, “This large-scale enslavement of mushrik families is probably the first since the abandonment of this Sharia’ah law. The only other known case – albeit much smaller – is that of the enslavement of Christian women and children in the Philippines and Nigeria by the mujahidin [jihadis] there.
They justify slavery through Sharia.
That is a problem with Islamic theology.
I choose to criticise the Qur'an and Islamic scripture which advocates it, while you choose to apologize for it.
Horrible acts occurring in other culture's is of no relevance, you certainly cannot tell the child they should have been raped because other children are raped in other cultures'.
(not sure you are suggesting that?)

Nah you are trying to take some moral high ground that is antithetical to your position, as long as you are going to try to apologize for ISIS as being reflective of religion.
That is moral low ground, what ISIS does.
Of course it doesn't make it right for two or three countires to have child brides, but you are still spreading misinformation if you make it appear that child brides are linked to Islam alone, rather than to education and culture. You need to read more on this subject. Empirical evidence is that in educated and technically advanced cultures, Muslims marry differently.
I recommend the book by the Harvard Muslim women, if you are interested.

Your attempt's to portray anyone as saying anything is a unique problem of Islam seen nowhere else is laughable, as no one has made that argument least of all me.
But as i explained to you, warfare, slavery and pedophilia being encouraged and practiced by many Muslims because of their religion is worthy of serious criticism and that it happens elsewhere does not diminish that nor is it relevant.
Your apologetic's is so pitiable in that you have to attempt to diminish the horror of warfare, slavery and pedophilia as it is encouraged and practiced under Islam.
To put it simply, where i care about the innocent people suffering warfare, slavery and other horrible atrocities, you only care about the reputation of the Islamic religion.
Therefore you seek to diminish the horror of these acts to defend the religion, which is equivalent to defending evil actions.

Don't let me stop you from trying to paint Muslims all with the same brush though. It keeps the thread active, for one. And the more the thread is active, the more chance some of your peers get to see the flip side of anti islamic thinking.

Your behaviour is of the far more contemptible sort.

Objection is not criticism.
It's been shown in various threads you have more concern about Islam's PR then the victims of terrorism.
Criticising Islamic scripture is not tarring people with the brush, that's a fallacy as there Muslims who find parts of Islam problematic.
Blaming Charlie Hebdo killing on the staff is the best example as the 'provoked the attack'. You have not once in this been critical of Islam.

If I say I object that is indeed criticism. Try to refrain from redefining words to excuse misquoting and mischaracterizing people. You do the same to other posters when you try to tar them with the same brush, as you do to Muslims.
If you quote scripture with no understanding, here or in other religious threads, it only shows your lack of understanding of the religion. You would imagine that a thoughtful person would approach a religion they don't know, a little more humbly. But maybe that is too high of an expectation.
The more rabid anti-Islamic prose there is, possibly the better, because it creates a backlash of people who wonder if the anti-islamics could be barking up the wrong tree. Now we are seeing more articles about the non-Islamicness of ISIS, and more people who are speaking out against haters, that is ultimately, a good thing.

No it isn't, only if you object to Islam encouraging it is that a criticism of Islam.
Objecting to an act itself is not a criticism of Islam until you accept Islam mandates it.
If you quote scripture with no understanding, here or in other religious threads, it only shows your lack of understanding of the religion. You would imagine that a thoughtful person would approach a religion they don't know, a little more humbly. But maybe that is too high of an expectation.
And yet you reject the interpretation of your 120 islamic scholar's that support the punishments of killing apostates, even when you went so far as to lecture people to rely only on the scholars and what they signed:
"Hudud punishments are fixed in the Qur’an and Hadith and are unquestionably obligatory in Islamic Law"
Narrated Ikrima:
Ali burnt some people and this news reached Ibn 'Abbas, who said, "Had I been in his place I would not have burnt them, as the Prophet said, 'Don't punish (anybody) with Allah's Punishment.' No doubt, I would have killed them, for the Prophet said, 'If somebody (a Muslim) discards his religion, kill him.' "

So please don't try and pretend you 'understand' scripture or are 'humble' in any fashion.
Those critical of Islam show far more respect then you, as they don't seek to lie or change the religion, they take it as it is honestly.

Actually more people are speaking out against Islam.

Yet a normal person, Christian or Jew, does not, hopefully, emulate the OT, nor Samuel's directive to kill men women and children.
Again, ISIS are delusional or liars. I choose liars.
No way ISIS aren't aware of what they are doing. If they are high tech they can read like anyone else the damage caused by these behaviors.
