N. America Fiqh Council Denounces "Terrorism"

Problem is what exactly do they define as "terrorism". Do they consider the attacks on the Pentagon on 9/11 terrorism? Will they denounce all forms of jihad warfare? Will they denounce the idea of the United States Constitution being replaced by Sharia law? So many people in the west will look at this and say "see they denounce terrorism!". Problem is what do they consider terrorism?


During a joint appearance by Christian, Jewish and Muslim leaders at the National Press Club on Friday, a national campaign to unite all Americans against terrorists was launched, highlighted by the proclamation of a fatwa by the Fiqh Council of North America.
Dr. Muzammil H. Siddiqi, chairman of the council, read the fatwa to a packed house gathered for a press club luncheon.
The fatwa states that all acts of terrorism are forbidden in Islam; it is forbidden for a Muslim to cooperate or associate with any individual or group that is involved in any act of terrorism or violence; and it is the duty of Muslims to report to enforcement authorities any threat which is designed to place a human being in harm's way, bringing them before a competent court of law and in accordance with due process.
"We pray for the defeat of extremism, terrorism and injustice," Siddiqi said. "We pray for the safety and security of our country the United States and its people. We pray for the safety and security of all inhabitants of this globe. We pray that interfaith harmony and cooperation prevail both in the United States and everywhere in the world." Theodore McCarrick, Catholic archbishop emeritus of Washington from 2001 until his retirement last year, was the luncheon speaker for the event, where he announced the launch of a grass-roots "Uniting to Protect" national campaign.
Also featured was Rabbi Jack Luxembourg of Temple Beth Ami in nearby Rockville, Maryland. Luxembourg served in the American Jewish Congress as president of the National Capital Region.
