Description from the publisher:
This second edition of the book comes after the heinous attacks that ISIS perpetrated in Egypt; Lebanon; Turkey; France; the USA and Indonesia. These attacks; which must be condemned by Muslim scholars and preachers around the world; are another testimony that; by killing women; children; and civilians; ISIS betrayed Islam; betrayed the Holy Quran; and betrayed the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). After the overwhelming response to the first edition; the author felt the need for a second edition that quenches the thirst of the readers with more details. He penned this second edition to further elaborate on many important topics; such as the prohibition of burning human beings; the abolition of slavery; and Islam's position towards minorities. New subjects are also tackled; such as the invalidity of excommunicating Muslim rulers for not applying certain aspects of Shari'ah; Islam's position towards democracy; and the prohibition of destroying pre-Islamic monuments and sacred sites. Several other topics benefitted from more rigorous proofs; especially the section confirming that ISIS criminals have left the fold of Islam and are no longer Muslims.
