The Maniacs of Nigeria – [In a Nutshell, This Is the Affair Regarding the Kharijite Maniacs (Boko Haram)]

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy

Shaikh Abdul Azeez Aala Shaikh [may Allaah preserve him..Aameen] says:

*Boka Haraam is a misguided group and they are from the khawaarij.

*Their actions are evil and harmful for Islam and the Muslims.

*Their actions are destructive.

*Abducting girls is from the actions of a misguided group.

*If Boka Haraam are claiming a call to jihad, then it is nothing but ignorance and enmity against Islaam and the Muslims.

*Boka Haraam are not upon correctness and guidance because Islaam opposes abduction/kidnapping, unlawful killing and transgression.

*Marrying off kidnapped/abducted females is haraam and it is not permissible to give them in marriage.
