New Jihad Code



The Jihad Code has recently been rewritten in 400 pages that was first published on September 6. 2009. This revolution in the definition of Jihad could challenge al Quaeda to find a legitimate reason for their actions. A direct attack to al Quaeda's policies is stated in the new code is stated as:
"Jihad has ethics and morals because it is for God. That means it is forbidden to kill women, children, elderly people, priests, messengers, traders and the like. Betrayal is prohibited and it is vital to keep promises and treat prisoners of war in a good way. Standing by those ethics is what distinguishes Muslims' jihad from the wars of other nations."
This document has been seen by some of the most respected religious scholars in the Middle East who are backing it up completely. This could lead the way to the slow death of religious wars in the name of God.
