Almsgiving, zakat, is one of the pillars of Islam. But like virtually everything else in Islam, it is not a matter of voluntary concern for the needy. It’s an obligation, the refusal of which can have lethal consequences. “Farmer killed by Taliban for not paying Tithe in Kabul,” South Asia Terrorism Portal, June 28, 2023 […]
Afghanistan: Taliban ignores terrorism commitments, appoints al-Qaeda jihadis as governors
Did anyone really believe that the Taliban would honor its promise not to allow al-Qaeda to regroup in the country? Maybe the foreign policy establishment did, but no one with any sense. “We went to Afghanistan almost 20 years ago with clear goals: get those who attacked us on September 11th, 2001, and make sure […]
Afghanistan: Religious police to scour wedding halls to enforce ban on music, it’s un-Islamic
The Taliban has been seeking out weddings to find any of them playing music or celebrating in any manner that contradicts Islam. Music, except nasheeds, a cappella exhortations to jihad, are all haram in Islam. To give an idea of how seriously these rules are taken by those who strictly adhere to the Sharia in […]
Biden Regime Refuses to Reveal Name of Kabul Bombing Mastermind
They can’t reveal the name even though he’s dead. Sounds plausible. You’ve probably seen the story splashed all over the media.

Afghanistan: Taliban kills mastermind of Kabul airport bombing
While the Biden administration boasts of its “moral responsibility” to inform the families of the 13 American troops who were killed in the Kabul blast about the death of the mastermind in the bombing, the administration’s catastrophic debacle in leaving Afghanistan is legendary. To this day, Americans remain stranded in Afghanistan, many of whom are […]
Family of Marine killed In Afghanistan stunned to learn snipers were ordered not to take out jihad suicide bomber

Taliban bans contraceptives, calls them ‘Western conspiracy to control the Muslim population’
The Taliban continues to torture women with beatings if they speak out against their ban on education for women. Now comes this latest move to strip women of all decision-making and demonize the West. No matter how anyone might view contraceptives, they were in use in the West long before mass Muslim immigration, and they […]
Somalia: SEAL Team 6 kills Islamic State leader responsible for 2021 Kabul jihad bombing that killed 13 U.S. troops
Bilal al-Sudani’s travels are a reminder of the global nature of the jihad against non-Muslims, and the folly of Western policymakers in treating each conflict between Muslims and non-Muslims in each nation as if it were separate and discrete and had nothing to do with the others. “REVEALED: ISIS leader killed by SEAL Team 6 […]
Taliban in power: ‘You have to go to the office before 8 AM and stay till 4 PM…I sometimes miss the jihad life’
None of these jihadis who say they miss the jihad ever remind us that what they’re doing now with their desk work is just a different form of jihad. That kind of thing is only for Western non-Muslim consumption, and of course there are multitudes of ignorant Western non-Muslims who eagerly lap it up. “New […]
Afghan shopkeepers defy Taliban’s orders to behead women mannequins
Good news from Afghanistan for a change. The Taliban had ordered the decapitation of female mannequins. But then, faced with shopkeeper resistance for economic reasons, the heads were ordered covered instead. Still, as previously stated on Jihad Watch: “They look like murder victims. In a certain sense, that’s what they are.” The Taliban move was not […]
