13 OCCASIONS WHEN IT IS ALLOWED TO KILL MUSLIMS
1. APOSTASY
On the authority of Ibn Abbas (RA) narrated the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "If somebody (a Muslim) discards his religion, kill him." [Sahih Bukhari (4/61) No. 3017, Musnad Ahmad (1/322) No. 2968, Sunan al-Nasa'i (7/104) No. 4059, Sunan Ibn Majah (3/574) No. 2535, Sunan Abu Dawud (4/126) No. 4351, Sunan Tirmidhi (4/59) No. 1458]
It is not for a believer to kill a believer except (that it be) by mistake, and whosoever kills a believer by mistake, (it is ordained that) he must set free a believing slave and a compensation (blood money, i.e Diya) be given to the deceased's family, unless they remit it. If the deceased belonged to a people at war with you and he was a believer; the freeing of a believing slave (is prescribed), and if he belonged to a people with whom you have a treaty of mutual alliance, compensation (blood money - Diya) must be paid to his family, and a believing slave must be freed. And whoso finds this (the penance of freeing a slave) beyond his means, he must fast for two consecutive months in order to seek repentance from Allāh. And Allāh is Ever All-Knowing, All Wise (An-Nisa 4:92)
And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell to abide therein, and the Wrath and the Curse of Allāh are upon him, and a great punishment is prepared for him. (An-Nisa 4:93)
-this law can only be applied in darul Islam
Proof that every apostate is not killed: Abu Bakr did not kill all of them
-Abu Bakr didn't take them to the battlefield
-Umar did and they fought well
-they did not betray Allah and His rasul (saw)
-the heart does not remain the same
-some get married and then divorce; change of heart
-Umar set out to kill the prophet (saw) but became Muslim instead
(They say): "Our Lord! Let not our hearts deviate (from the truth) after You have guided us, and grant us mercy from You. Truly, You are the Bestower." (Aali Imran 3:8)
2. MURDER
-a man killed a man in Saudi but the family forgave him
-they said he had to memorise the Quran while in prison
-the family can ask blood money/death/or forgive him
Narrated By 'Abdullah: Allah's Apostle said, "The blood of a Muslim who confesses that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that I am His Apostle, cannot be shed except in three cases: In Qisas for murder, a married person who commits illegal sexual intercourse and the one who reverts from Islam (apostate) and leaves the Muslims." [Al-Bukhari (6878) and Muslim (1676)]
3. ADULTERY
4. RAPE
5. SODOMY
Ibn ‘Abbas (RA) said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever you find doing the action of the people of Loot, execute the one who does it and the one to whom it is done.” [Sunan Tirmidhi (4/57) No. 1456, Sunan Abu Dawud (4/158) No. 4462, Sunan Ibn Majah (3/594) No. 2561, Musnad Ahmad (1/300) No. 2732]
Ibn Qudamah said: "If two women engage in lesbian sexual relations, then they are guilty of zina and are cursed, because it was narrated that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “If a woman has sexual relations with another woman, then they are both guilty of zina.” There is no hadd punishment for them because they did not have intercourse, rather it is likened to intimate relations that are less than intercourse, and they are to be subjected to a ta’zeer punishment." [Al-Mughni (9/61)]
-only kill gay in Islamic state
-lesbians only get 100 lashes
-lesbian sex is fake
-ta'zeer means you can decide the lash amount
-ta'zeer e.g. a man kisses a girl you cannot flog him 100 lashes, 10 is given
It was narrated from Abu Bardah al-Ansari that he heard the Messenger of Allah (SAW) say: "No one should be given more than ten lashes except in the case of one of the hadd punishments of Allah.” [Al-Bukhari (6850) and Muslim (1708)]
-based on Ibn Qudaama, you can only give 10 lashes to the lesbian
6. BESTIALITY
Narrated By Abdullah ibn Abbas: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "If anyone has sexual intercourse with an animal, kill him and kill it along with him." I (Ikrimah) said: I asked him (Ibn Abbas): 'What offence can be attributed to the animal?' He replied: 'I think he (the Prophet) disapproved of its flesh being eaten when such a thing had been done to it.' [Sunan Abu Dawud (4/159) No. 4464, Sunan Tirmidhi (4/56) No. 1455, Musnad Ahmad (1/269) No. 2420]
7. ARMED ROBBERY
Narrated Anas: Some people from `Uraina tribe came to Medina and its climate did not suit them, so Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) allowed them to go to the herd of camels (given as Zakat) and they drank their milk and urine (as medicine) but they killed the shepherd and drove away all the camels. So Allah's Apostle sent (men) in their pursuit to catch them, and they were brought, and he had their hands and feet cut, and their eyes were branded with heated pieces of iron and they were left in the Harra (a stony place at Medina), till they died. [Al-Bukhari (6802) and Muslim (1671)]
8. SPYING
9. DRUG SMUGGLING
The recompense of those who wage war against Allāh and His Messenger and do mischief in the land is only that they shall be killed or crucified or their hands and their feet be cut off on the opposite sides, or be exiled from the land. That is their disgrace in this world, and a great torment is theirs in the Hereafter. (Al-Ma'idah 5:33)
10. CONSPIRATOR
Ibn Umar narrated: 'Umar Ibn al-Khattab (RA) killed seven people because they had collaborated in killing one man. (People questioned Umar why he did this) and he answered: "Had all the people of Sana'a (Yemen) conspired to kill a Muslim, I would have killed them all."' [Sunan al-Kubra al-Bayhaqi (8/73-74) No. 15975, Muwatta Imam Malik (2/871) No. 13, Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah (5/429) No. 27695]
11. INCEST
-you kill both
Narrated By Al-Bara' ibn Azib: I met my uncle who was carrying a standard. I asked him: 'Where are you going?' He said: 'The Apostle of Allah (ﷺ) has sent me to a man who has married his father's wife. He has ordered me to cut off his head and take his property.' [Sunan Abu Dawud (4/157) No. 4457, Sunan al-Nasa'i (6/109) No. 3332, Sunan al-Darime (2/205) No. 2239, Musnad Ahmad (4/290) No. 18580]
Ibn Abbas reported that the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Any man who commits the crime of incest must be put to death and any man who cohabits with an animal both him and the animal must be put to death”. (Sunnan Ibn Majah No.2564 also Naylul Awthaar Vol. 7 pg.118)
12. PAEDOPHILIA
-when they cause death or sodomised the child
-the one who is close to the child/ paedophile and incest
-you have to interview the child
-if he goes to bed with a girl who is not menstruating
-he is a paedophile
13. HABITUAL DRINKER
Narrated Mu'awiyah ibn Abu Sufyan: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: If they (the people) drink wine, flog them, again if they drink it, flog them. Again if they drink it, kill them. [Musnad Ahmad (4/96) No. 16915, Sunan Abu Dawud (4/165) No. 4485, Sunan Ibn Majah (3/604) No. 2573, Sunan Tirmidhi (4/48) No. 1444, al-Sunan al-Kubra al-Nasa'i (5/142) No. 5280]
-laa qawada illa bis saif (kill them with a sword)
-there is no execution without a sword
-this is a weak hadith
لا قود إلا بالسيف [Daraqutni, Bayhaqi]
There is no execution except by the sword. [Daraqutni, Bayhaqi]
-you can throw someone from a height for execution
-the sahabah killed gays by throwing them from heights
-you can take them in a helicopter and throw them out
There is a difference of opinion concerning the punishment for the one who commits sodomy. The following are the opinions that were mentioned by Imam Ash-Shawkani in "Nayl Al-Awtar" , Vol. 7/p122-124.
1) That he is killed with the sword, then burnt. This is narrated from Abu Bakr and 'Ali Ibn Abi Talib.
2) That a wall should be collapsed upon him. This was the opinion of 'Umar and 'Uthman.
3) That he should be thrown from the highest building in the city, then that should be followed up with him being pelted with rocks. This was the opinion of Ibn 'Abbas.
4) That he is stoned. This is narrated by Al-Bayhaqi from 'Ali Ibn Abi Talib, Ash-Sha'bi, Az-Zuhri, Malik, Ahmad, Is'haq, and Ash-Shafi'i.
5) That they are burned. This was narrated by Al-Bayhaqi, that Abu Bakr gathered the Sahabah and 'Ali mentioned this, and the Sahabah agreed upon it. It was also mentioned by Al-Munthiri that it was done by Abu Bakr, 'Ali, 'Abdullah Ibn Az-Zubayr, and Hisham Ibn 'Abdil-Malik.
6) That he is stoned, then burnt with fire. This is narrated from the Sahabah agreeing upon it in the time of Abu Bakr.
7) That the punishment is the same as Zina, in that if he is a virgin, he is whipped, and if he is not, then he is stoned.
8) That there is no prescribed punishment, rather it is left up to the Imam to perform Ta'zir, and this was narrated from Abu Hanifah, and one narration from Ash-Shafi'i, and others.
Ash-Shawkani refutes the opinion of the punishment being the same as Zina, as well as the opinion that there is only Ta'zir, and supports the opinion that he is killed, but does not appear to specify which way of killing is the strongest.
-Shiites were killed by Ali with fire
…and if you slaughter, then slaughter well. Let each one of you sharpen his blade and let him spare suffering to the animal he slaughters." [It was related by Muslim]
When you slaughter an animal, do it well
-the Prophet (ﷺ) said make sure the knife is sharp
-do not kill one animal in front of another
-you face the ka’ba when you slaughter
The slaughter must be done by Muslims, Christians or Jews- Maliki madhab
-Hanafi and Hanbali say it has to be done by Muslims only
-they make pronunciation of ‘Bismillah’ a condition for the meat to be halal
In Ugandan constitution only Muslims can run slaughterhouses
-Maliki’s say that “Bismillah is not a condition
-you say ‘Bismillah’ before you eat it if ‘Bismillah’ was not said over it
-shaikh’s university prefer the opinion of the Hanbalis and Hanafis
-the Malikis say the prophet used to eat meat of Jews and Christians
-and they don't say Bismillah over it
For the meat to be halal the knife should be sharp
-he should face the ka’ba and say Bismillah
Made lawful to you this day are At¬Tayyibât [all kinds of Halâl (lawful) foods, which Allâh has made lawful (meat of slaughtered eatable animals, etc., milk products, fats, vegetables and fruits, etc.). The food (slaughtered cattle, eatable animals, etc.) of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) is lawful to you and yours is lawful to them..... (Al-Ma'idah 5:5)
Some have Bismillah written on the wall
-this is not halal meat
-some slaughter 1000 chickens by machine
-if the operator says Bismillah before he switches
-the ulama of Saudi say that the meat is halal
When you stun chickens, the meat is not halal
-stunned sheep and cow according to the scholars is halal
-because the animal is not feeble like the chicken
-if the voltage was low and they did not die
-the meat is halal
Buddhist and Sikh meat is haraam
-you are a kafir if you eat that meat
Eat not (O believers) of that (meat) on which Allâh's Name has not been pronounced (at the time of the slaughtering of the animal), for sure it is Fisq (a sin and disobedience of Allâh). And certainly, the Shayâtin (devils) do inspire their friends (from mankind) to dispute with you, and if you obey them [by making Al¬Maytatah (a dead animal) legal by eating it], then you would indeed be Mushrikûn (polytheists) [because they (devils and their friends) made lawful to you to eat that which Allâh has made unlawful to eat and you obeyed them by considering it lawful to eat, and by doing so you worshipped them, and to worship others besides Allâh is polytheism]. (Al-An'am 6:121)
-you are not allowed to eat the slaughter for Christmas
-Christmas is a pagan holiday
-saying happy New Year is not shirk
-saying merry Christmas makes you a kaffir
-new Year’s dinner is not shirk
