[www.keralites.net] 10 Islamic Rules of War

 

Medics in Gaza say four more people have been killed in pre-dawn attacks by Israel. International calls are mounting for restraint, and a stop to the shelling. More than 98 Palestinians, mostly civilians, have been killed and hundreds injured in the offensive so far. At least 20 of those who lost their lives are children.

10 Islamic Rules of War

Before engaging in battle, the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) instructed his soldiers:

1. "Do not kill any child, any woman, or any elder or sick person." (Sunan Abu Dawud)

2. "Do not practice treachery or mutilation.(Al-Muwatta)

3. Do not uproot or burn palms or cut down fruitful trees.(Al-Muwatta)

4. Do not slaughter a sheep or a cow or a camel, except for food." (Al-Muwatta)

5. "If one fights his brother, [he must] avoid striking the face, for God created him in the image of Adam." (Sahih Bukhari, Sahih Muslim)

6. "Do not kill the monks in monasteries, and do not kill those sitting in places of worship. (Musnad Ahmad Ibn Hanbal)

7. "Do not destroy the villages and towns, do not spoil the cultivated fields and gardens, and do not slaughter the cattle." (Sahih Bukhari; Sunan Abu Dawud)

8. "Do not wish for an encounter with the enemy; pray to God to grant you security; but when you [are forced to] encounter them, exercise patience." (Sahih Muslim)

9. "No one may punish with fire except the Lord of Fire." (Sunan Abu Dawud).

10. "Accustom yourselves to do good if people do good, and to not do wrong even if they commit evil." (Al-Tirmidhi)

 

Verse in the Holy Quraan

4:75 (Y. Ali) And why should ye not fight in the cause of Allah and of those who, being weak, are ill-treated (and oppressed)?- Men, women, and children, whose cry is: "Our Lord! Rescue us from this town, whose people are oppressors; and raise for us from thee one who will protect; and raise for us from thee one who will help!"
