The shariaa of the jungle I understand the didactic lessons to be learnt from the Traditions and the Lore of early Islam, but what I do not understand is for people who are not schooled in the various interpretations and commentaries on the Traditions to come and implement them in the context of taking lives or legitimizing murder. The chains of authority in relating the Traditions of the Prophet are very meticulous but the interpretations vary and only the most learned of scholars were given the right to issue opinions and judgments. How can a fighter or group of fighters combine in themselves the offices of judges, witnesses and executioners? Judges in Islam issued judgments after deliberation and listening to the two side, but did not execute themselves. For Jabhat al-Nusra and the Islamists or indeed the rebels to take the law in their own hands and execute is absolutely unlawful, as it is absolutely unlawful for the soldiers of the regime to do so. Nothing legitimizes the Shariaa killings because there is no shariaa behind them but that of the jungle. Wars create uncontrollable savage contexts but for us to defend and legitimize murder is sinking into barbarism. therepublicgs.net/2013/06/09/%D8%A3%D9%84%D8%A7- %D9%86%D9%82%D8%AA%D9%84%D9%87%D8%A7-%D9%8A%D8%A7-%D8%B1%D8%B3%D9%88%D9%84-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%84%D9%87%D8%9F/
