Islamic State women have formed a morality militia, al-Khansaa, to conduct border patrol checks and enforce sharia law. According to the International Business Times, the Syrian branch comprises 50 women, many of whom are wives of immigrant jihadists from Britain, France, Morocco and Tunisia. The sharia militia is sadistic, committing violence against women who do not submit to sharia law. The militia also operates the brothels where enslaved women and girls are raped by jihadists. Researchers from the International Centre for the Study of Radicalisation believe at least four English Muslims have joined the sharia brigade. Among them is Khadijah Dare, whom London’s The Telegraph reports celebrating the decapitation of James Foley and inciting violence on Twitter: “You Christians all need beheading with a nice blunt knife and stuck on the railings at Raqqa … Come here I’ll do it for you!” Despite widespread condemnation of Islamic State violence the fact is its constitutional ideology and beliefs, including the validity of theocratic sharia law, are shared by Islamist regimes and some Western-based organisations. On its website, the Islamic Association of Australia provides advice on zakah, a mandatory form of sharia taxation whose proceeds are purportedly given to charity. The advice illustrates the considerable conflict between even apparently beneficent principles of sharia and the foundational values of modern Western society in polytheism, freedom of belief and human equality. The IAA advises that charity must be paid only to Muslims, excluding “non-religious sects or institutions”. Its advice on slaves is of even greater concern. The association stipulates that zakah can be used for “ransoming of slaves” and that all Muslims, including “free and slave”, must pay it. [So we have organisations in Australia that condone slavery, do we? Good to know where some of that zakat is going.] theaustralian.au/opinion/slaves-of-genocidal-misogyny-womens-fight-for-survival/story-e6frg6zo-1227172974234
