Hamas conduct 'violates laws of Koran,' Islamic Fatwa Council rules

[SAT]

The Islamic Fatwa Council (IFC) announced last week that they have ruled the terror organization Hamas and charged them with "violating the laws of the Holy Koran."

The IFC said that they found that Hamas is responsible for their corruption and terror against Palestinian civilians in Gaza. They also stated that "it is prohibited to pray for, join, support, finance, or fight on behalf of Hamas" saying that it "adheres to the ideology of the Muslim Brotherhood movement."

"It is the responsibility of the Islamic Seminaries to take a clear and firm stance in light of the inhumane actions of Hamas," they wrote in a statement. "The Islamic Fatwa Council has reviewed extensive documentation of Hamas behavior towards Palestinians in Gaza, including their recently publicized testimonies."

Now that is something major. Who knew there was even an Islamic Fatwa Council?

So, this begs the question: What sect is the IFC (Sunni/Shiite) and same ?? for Iran/Hamas/Islamic Jihad/Hezbollah or does that not even matter anymore.
If Iran is one and IFC is another, they couldn't care less as they would say the IFC is misinterpreting the Koran (IMO).

This goes a long way in explaining it Andy: https://www.foxnews.com/world/in-gro...-against-hamas

Apparently this particular Body is made of "The unprecedented declaration, published by the Islamic Fatwa Council, a non-government body of Shiite, Sunni and Sufi clerics headquartered in the Iraqi spiritual capital of Najaf, states that Hamas, an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood movement, "bears responsibility for its own reign of corruption and terror against Palestinian civilians within Gaza" and deems "it prohibited to pray for, join, support, finance or fight on behalf of Hamas." Quote is from the article linked above.

This fatwah comes after Palestinians themselves have risen up against Hamas.
