I’ve got this article from www.
Arabtimes.com . It’s not
new as it dated before the Iraq invasion however, the subject is ever new, as the opening sentence indicates.
Arab Sheiks Tailored
Fatwa(s).
Mr Kradawy issued a fatwa this year, ‘in public,’ that jihad against the invader Americans is an obligatory duty on every Muslim.
Mr Kradawy ‘afta,’ last year that, ‘American Muslims should join the American Army in its operations in Afghanistan.’ This one was privately handed to the American Ambassador in Doha.
In practice the Sheikhs tailor his fatwa(s) in accordance with the market demand. Even if, this leads to Muslims killing Muslims. They are no difference to the new wave of all-colours singers who shape their songs to comply with the chart index, with the sole aim of making money.
The question is, do those Sheikhs apply their fatwa(s) to their
kids? The answer is no, the Sheikh’s kids all
live in the West and adopt westerners way of
life. Those fatwa(s) are for the idiots and the high bidders. The formers are for publicity and legitimacy, and the later(s) are to meet live demands, ‘luxury life.’
Afta = to issue fatwa.
