Well, it's not like anyone is recognizing the other Caliph either.

Anyway, I'm declaring my own Caliphate. With coke, whiskey, blackjack and hookers*. All hail the new Shebinad Caliphate!


* Yeah, technically some of those things are haram, but so is blowing mosque and massacring christians, and it didn't stop the other ones from having a Caliphate.

One of the Caliphates major goals will have to be destroying any other caliphates, that followed by destruction of rival jihadist groups, then the other Muslim sects, then the world, I suppose.

Apparently Boko Haram decided they wanted to be a caliphate too.
Cue the hipster jihadi who wanted to be a Caliphate back before it became a thing.

Look rad as hell. I wish my caliphate was a sexy. Anyway, I just celebrated my accession to the Caliphate in the time-honoured tradition of changing my avatar.

Yeah, Islaam, like most religions to a certain degree, is all about slaughtering the non believers in one way or another (even if most have technically left that behaviour behind). A pertinent verse from the Qu'ran that leaps to mind states that "Idolatry is worse than carnage". The same verse then proscribes violence at a Mosque, so go fish.

My bad, I though it was in the Q'ran, but apparently the protection for "People of the book" (Christians, Jews, Sabians etc) is part of sharia instead.

As for the blowing up the mosques, it's that whole problem of "Well, of course, you shouldn't kill fellow Muslims. But apostate Muslims and heretics are fair game."

Same logic behind "Thou shalt not kill. Unless they're Cathars/Manicheans/Hussites/pagans/idolators/Jews/etc"

And when you're a fairly narrow literalist sect of Wahhabis, pretty much EVERYONE in the Ummah is an apostate.

Yeah, they turn the No True Scotsman knob right up to 11. Then cut it off, so to speak.
