Marwa al-Sherbini, a pregnant 31-year-old pharmacist, was stabbed 18 times in a court where she was to have testified against a young Russian-born German. She had filed a complaint against him in 2008 accusing him of insulting her with racial slurs.
In a question and answer session almost 20 years ago, the late Mufti of Saudi Arabia, Shaikh ‘Abdul-’Aziz Bin Baz (rahimahullah) was asked concerning the “Jama’at ul-Jihad” and co-operation with them. His response was:
They are not to be co-operated with, nor are they to be given salutations (the regular greeting amongst Muslims). Rather, they are to be cut off from, and the people are to be warned against their evil. Since they are a tribulation and are harmful to the Muslims, and they are the brethren of the Devil.
The Jama’at ul-Jihad was an organisation from Egypt whose ideological roots lied in the teachings of Sayyid Qutb and Abu A’la Maududi.
