Ninth Point: Fighting Alongside Apostates and Innovators
The writer Abu Maysara al Shami states in the magazine "Dabiq" - which is the official magazine of ISIS - in the sixth issue on page 22:
"Also from amongst what has reached me from trustworthy ones (1) in Yemen is that "Ansaar ash-Shareeah" in the province of Al Jawf have been fighting side by side with the apostate army (the army of "the Arab Spring" - the army of Abd Rabbuh) and the Bankrupt Brotherhood against the Houthis."
So we say that the main spokesman of ISIS said in his speech entitled "You have Allah with you oh oppressed State":
"If the State conducted an operation and allowed another faction to participate in this operation; the media would ascribe this operation to that faction without mentioning the State's name ever. An example of that is ascribing liberation of the "Mennagh" airport in the countryside of Halab to the Free Syrian Army, although the preparation, planning and execution of the operation was done by the State, with limited participation of some of the soldiers from the battalions of FSA, and the media did not mention the State's name ever, until the spokesmen on behalf of the secular "Chief of Staff" who are stationed in hotels came out claiming the operation with no shame whatsoever!"
We say what is the ruling regarding the Free Syrian Army according to you? (2) Especially since this group - as it appears to be - is linked to the Chief of Staff, (3) and thus the Chiefs of Staff claimed the operation! And also in particular, those who participated alongside you in this operation were the "Northern Storm" (4) about whom your spokesman said in the same speech :-
"And as for those who are known as "the Northern Storm", everyone also knows of their wickedness and evil, and everyone far and near knows that they had received the American pig John McCain with whom they agreed to fight the State and to wage war against the Mujahideen. And also they smuggled the Nusayri tanks that used to shell the Muslims from the Mennagh airport on the day soldiers of the State stormed it, and their recent desperate defence for the crusader spy and them beginning to fight us
(1) Abu Muhammad al Adnani said in the speech "Then let us invoke the curse of Allah upon the liars", - "And if you were to ask them, how did you judge? They will say, "Someone who is trustworthy told me this." Glory be to Allah! Even if that trustworthy person is our enemy?!" - For these people everybody is as an enemy, and so none will communicate with them other than their own people and those who are necessarily the enemies of Al Qaida!! Look how they accuse others for matters they themselves have fallen into!
(2) They have mentioned in their official magazine "Dabiq" (Tenth issue, page 44) "The apostates of the Free Syrian Army are fighting for the sake of democracy".
(3) They said regarding the Islamic Front and its leaders in the statement of the Shareeah council which is an official statement released by ISIS on Wednesday 16 Jumaadi al Aakhira in the year 1435 H: "And due to this, the coalition group in all its forms including its staffs are apostates who have left the religion of Allah". (Page 7)
(4) The "Northern storm" platoon published videos on Youtube where they showed the names and photographs of their dead in the battle for Mennagh Airport which was led by ISIS! And they conducted a military parade inside the airport after its liberation.
