One type of Daesh captures a person, and supposedly following the decree of Islam, after reciting several verses from the Holy Quran, binds the person’s hands and feet, hangs them from a pre-prepared location, and then places blazing fire under their body until, after a few seconds or minutes, the unfortunate captive succumbs and is roasted. They film all these stages and distribute the movie worldwide, proudly claiming, “It was me who did this, and I will do it again.”
The world’s stance towards this kind of Daesh is clear.
We have another kind of Daesh who, in their own assumption, when they see the pillar of Islam in danger, will drag someone’s child out of their home in broad daylight, in front of their mother, and it’s not clear what they do to him. They might unmercifully torture him to death and bury him in an unknown place. After seventeen years, when the mother and father, having turned everywhere upside down to find their beloved child, finally tell his mother, “Think it over, see if you’ve actually given birth to such a child or if you’re imagining things, and you no longer have the right to look for your son or to notify the world that your child is missing. Otherwise, we’ll bring your entire family to ruin.”
May God curse all Daesh of the world and reduce their evil on humanity. But my question to you is, which do you think is worse, the first Daesh or the second?
It’s a pity for a person who can be kind and should be kind, to become a Daesh. But in my opinion, if someone thinks they are forced to become Daesh due to their religious duty or for a morsel of bread, it’s better for them, if they must, to become a courageous Daesh rather than a cowardly one.
