Summary
ISIS, ISIL and IS are declared deviant movements that contradict the Ahlu Sunnah wa al Jamaah creed. Anyone who goes to fight for or supports the movement is held to be inconsistent with the true concept of jihad in Islam. Those killed in the cause of the movement are not classified as martyrs under Islamic law. The Negeri Sembilan committee adopted this from the National Fatwa Muzakarah, and it has not been gazetted.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), atau Islamic State of Iraq and Levant (ISIL) serta Islamic State (IS) adalah gerakan yang menyeleweng dan bercanggah dengan fahaman Ahlu Sunnah wa al Jamaah.
