Sheikh Muhammad Salih al-Munajjid is a well known Muslim scholar who lectures on all things theology concerning Islam. Much of his advice is issued through a site called Islam Q&A where Muslims write in questions and he issues Fatwas concerning the various things Muslims concern themselves with.
Like Witchcraft.
Witchcraft, due to the large Neo-Pagan populations in America and Europe, is something that many Muslims are concerned with. As such Islam Q&A has an entire section devoted just to we Witches and Warlocks. In that section one Muslim writes this question:
Is it permissible for him to kill practitioners of witchcraft without the permission of the authorities?
Witchcraft is widespread in our land and they annoy and harm the people. Is it permissible to kill them so that the people will be spared their evil?
Please note that our government allows them to work and takes taxes from them.Praise be to Allaah
Clearly the reference to tax collection means this person is talking about a Western country where we Pagans are tax paying citizens. The good Sheikh’s answer? Yes.
But don’t worry, he says that without a a “ruler” to order the punishments individuals aren’t allowed to carry it out themselves. So here in America we Witches can’t be killed … yet. But if Muslims established a Sharia community here with a recognized authority, it’ll be burning time.
Hey, it’s not like any well respected Imams have ever said America can be Sharia compliant is it?
Heads up…I’ve changed the name of my blog…going to also do a semi-survival tips as well…for surviving totalitarianism and anti-Semitism that is.
And yet, there are Pagans who think we shouldn’t be concerned because it’s just those Abrahamic religions fighting each other as if extremists care that we’re Pagans instead of Christians.
