Dar al-Harb and Dar al-Islam (the Abodes of War and Peace): Difference between revisions

{{Quote|1=Gulboddin Hekmatyar, Afghan Islamist leader of a militia that joined the Taliban and Al-Qa'ida<br>in a "holy war" against all international and peacekeeping forces in Afghanistan, 2002|2=American forces are guarding the presidential palace and foreign forces are in control of all the airports in the country. We think that it is not permissible under the shari'a to cooperate with the occupiers. It is also not permissible to join this government, because it is an agent government. Islam does not permit a Muslim to live in submission under infidels and aggressors. I think that Afghanistan is currently categorized as a 'Domain of War' [Dar Al-Harb]. All Afghans must remove the invading forces from their country. It is not possible for us to reach a dialogue now with those who supported the United States, because there will be no benefit in establishing contact and dialogue with them. They sided with the Russians in the past and received weapons and financial aid from them.<ref>[http://memri.org/bin/articles.cgi?Page=archives&Area=sd&ID=SP45503 Interview With Afghan Islamist Leader On Jihad Against U.S.] - MEMRI: Special Dispatch, No. 455, January 3, 2003</ref><br>}}
