Reuters – ISIS has urged Muslims to travel to Syria and join their aim of creating a caliphate.
Extremist militant group ISIS yet again amputated another man who they claim a thief and insisted in executing their divine intervention of justice to fulfill their belief of the Sharia law.
The man was reportedly dragged to a wide square in ISIS’ stronghold of Raqqa in Syria and was surrounded by onlookers. He was blindfolded as masked men guide him to his place of reckoning where he would lose a part of his body. He was then seated on a chair facing a wooden table.
On the picture ISIS advertised, a masked man was behind him holding his right arm and keeping it stretched while another masked man was holding a meat cleaver aiming to chop off the said thief’s right hand.
Another picture shows a masked man sealing off the chopped arm with bandage.
Amputations because of thieving is not only a practice of ISIS but is also implemented in Saudi Arabia and Iran.
Public amputations and killing for punishment are known misdemeanor of the extremist group claiming victims violated the Sharia law or they were speculated to be spies from rival countries.
ISIS continues to terrorize Western countries, particularly France and Germany, attacking innocent people and claiming the suicidal acts of their ‘chosen’ members.
According to an article by Dailystar, ISIS recently released a nine- minute video of a masked man addressing Russia and Vladimir Putin. “Listen Putin, we will come to Russia and will kill you at your homes,” he said.
Different countries expressed zero tolerance on terrorist and terrorism attacks following the consecutive mass killings of the extremist group.
The militant group is reportedly losing ground in Syria and Iraq as the US forces together with the Syrian Democratic Forces teamed up to eradicate their control coming from the country side traveling north to reach the city.
In response to this reprisal, ISIS called for their supporters to perform jihad as retribution. Jihad, in Islam, is a struggle within oneself to abstain from sin.
However, ISIS’ concept of jihad is to declare war against other religions, thus can perform a violent act to eradicate ‘sinners’ who don’t follow their religion.
