DAESH MAGAZINE After reading all the issues of Dabiq, the official ISIL magazine, I analysed this matter in meaning and setting. In these issues they call themselves “the slaves of Allah” and they call all who are against them “the crusaders”. These 2 were an influence to make an own anti- ISIL magazine called ‘Daesh’. The issues would contain the exact opposite information but in the same style and setting as Dabiq to enlarge a form of propaganda. They will be brought as some kind of parody on ‘Dabiq’. The first issue was build on the first issue of ‘Dabiq’ called ‘Dabiq issue 1: The return of Kilafah’. I used the message by giving my issue the title of ‘The return of the crusader’ to point out that the Western community still stands where it was. Khilafah is the political system in Islam. It is responsible for implementing the Islamic system (be it social, economic, educational, foreign policy,...) and maintaining its implementation. It is also responsible for spreading the message of Islam to the world.

introduction

Allah bless this effort and make it a beacon for generations to come. As for the name of the magazine, then it is taken from the area named Dabiq in the northern countryside of Halab (Aleppo) in Sham. This place was mentioned in a hadith describing some of the events of the Malahim (what is sometimes referred to as Armageddon in English). One of the greatest battles between the Muslims and the crusaders will take place near Dabiq. Abu Hurayrah reported that Allah’s Messenger (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said,

“The Hour will not be established until the Romans land at al-A’maq or Dabiq (two places near each other in the northern countryside of Halab). Then an army from al-Madinah of the best people on the earth at that time will leave for them. When they line up in ranks, the Romans will say, ‘Leave us and those who were taken as prisoners from amongst us so we can fight them.’ The Muslims will say, ‘Nay, by Allah, we will not abandon our brothers to

you.’ So they will fight them. Then one third of them will flee; Allah will never forgive them. One third will be killed; they will be the best martyrs with Allah. And one third will conquer them; they will never be afflicted with fitnah. Then they will conquer Constantinople. While they are dividing the war booty, having hung their swords on olive trees, Shaytan will shout, ‘The [false] Messiah has followed after your families [who were left behind.]’ So they will leave [for their families], but Shaytan’s claim is false. When they arrive to Sham he comes out. Then while they are preparing for battle and filing their ranks, the prayer is called. So ‘Isa Ibn Maryam (‘alayhis-Salam) will descend and lead them.

If he were to leave him, he would melt until he perished, but he kills him with his own hand, and then shows them his blood upon his spear” [Sahih Muslim]. Shaykh Abu Mus’ab az-Zarqawi (rahimahullah) anticipated the expansion of the blessed jihad from Iraq into Sham and linked it to this hadith saying,

battles leading up to the conquests of Constantinople, then Rome. Presently, Dabiq is under the control of crusaderbacked sahwat, close to the warfront between them and the Khilafah. May Allah purify Dabiq from the treachery of the sahwah and raise the flag of the Khilafah over its land. Amin.

“The spark has been lit here in Iraq, and its heat will continue to intensify – by Allah’s permission – until it burns the crusader armies in Dabiq” [Ayna Ahlul-Muru’at].

According to the hadith, the area will play a historical role in the

assault began in the morning and included a group of inghimāsiyyīn plunging into the enemy ranks, with support from the mortar team, a tank, a BMP, a 23 millimeter gun, and some doshkas. The mujahidīn killed many PKK soldiers, with around 20 of their corpses being removed from the battlefield. They then advanced to a position on high ground called “the home of Ahmad Munīr,” which overlooks the town of Jarāblus. Numerous weapons were captured as ghanīmah, including assault rifles, PKC machine guns, RPG launchers and rounds, a sniper rifle and a night vision scope. During the course of the battle there was one shahīd and a number of light injuries. This battle was just one of a number of successful advances made against the PKK on numerous fronts, including the capture of the village of Kindār and a number of other villages adjacent to it on the western front of Tal Abyad on the 11th of Ramadān, with the advance continuing towards ‘Ayn Al-’Arab. This was in addition to a number of operations against the PKK within their main strongholds, including istishhādi operations carried out against the PKK/Peshmerga murtaddīn in both Iraq and Shām, as well as a number of PKK vehicles blown up by the Islamic State’s undercover cells in Wilāyat Al-Barakah, all leading to many of their apostate soldiers being killed.

Rasūlullāh (sallallāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said, “Whoever gathers and lives with the mushrik, then he is like him” [Reported by Abū Dāwūd on the authority of Samurah Ibn Jundub]. Rasūlullāh (sallallāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said, “I have nothing to do with any Muslim who resides amongst the mushrikīn.” The Companions asked, “O Rasūlullāh, why is that?” He replied, “They should not be able to see each other’s fires” [Reported by Abū Dāwūd and at-Tirmidhī on the authority of Jarīr Ibn ‘Abdillāh].

Rasūlullāh (sallallāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said, “Allah (‘azza wa jall) does not accept any deed from a mushrik after he accepts Islam until he departs from the mushrikīn and goes to the Muslims” [Reported by Ibn Mājah and an-Nasā’ī on the authority of Mu’āwiyah Ibn Haydah].

Rasūlullāh (sallallāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said, “Whoever resides amongst the mushrikīn in their lands, then the [Muslims’] responsibility towards him is lifted” [Reported by atTabarānī and al-Bayhaqī on the authority of Jarīr Ibn ‘Abdillāh].

The Prophet (sallallāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam) took the hand of Jarīr Ibn ‘Abdillāh (radiyallāhu ‘anh) and said to him, “I take your bay’ah (pledge) to worship Allah alone, establish the prayer, give the zakāh, advise the Muslims, and depart from the mushrikīn” [Reported by Imām Ahmad and an-Nasā’ī].

Daesh magazine - research They sent the criminals and leaders of kufr off to Hellfire. He also sought to avenge the honor of the sisters imprisoned by the tyrannical crusader Copts in Egypt, and thus the attack against the “Our Lady of Salvation” Church was executed.1 The Rāfidah then called for help from their crusader masters who mobilized whatever they could to get hold of this heroic lion. They provided all information about this unique man and his aids, most prominent of them being the brave knight, the military leader of Baghdad, Abū Khawlah. Hudhayfah al-Battāwī used to call him his closest friend due to his strong love for him until they were killed together in the prison. Hudhayfah (rahimahullāh) was steadfast like anchored mountains while in the Rāfidah’s “Counter-Terrorism” prison. When the Rāfidī enemy of Allah, Nouri al-Maliki, met him and told him that he would soon be executed by hanging, he replied to him that he wasn’t concerned and that life and death were only in Allah’s hands and not in his. The Rāfidī tāghūt Nouri al-Maliki

Then he and the brothers with him began coordinating from inside the prison with the brothers outside. They provided them with two pistols, TNT explosives, and detonators. The smuggling method was clever and their surveillance apparatuses and security procedures were unable to uncover it. The agreement was that the attack on the prison would begin from

the outside at the very moment of the attack by the Wālī Hudhayfah and his brothers inside the prison against the apostates. Thus approached zero hour, but the attack did not occur in the morning as planned because the appointment changed due to the apostate warden coming to them at night to take them out for interrogation. So Hudhayfah took care of killing him. Then he went to the director of “CounterTerrorism,” the enemy of Allah, Mu’ayyad asSālih. He executed him and retaliated for the Muslims. Likewise, the brother Abū Khawlah, military leader of Baghdad, and the rest of his brothers clashed with the apostates and they killed everyone in the prison in which the mujāhidīn were tortured and had experienced that which only Allah knows of. They rode the apostates’ car from the prison building and arrived at the Interior Ministry’s gateway. They then clashed with the apostates. The crusaders stepped in, striking them with Apache helicopters. However, the brothers persisted with their combat until they were all killed while facing the enemy not retreating. They were ten from the best of knights, led by our knight, the Wālī Hudhayfah al-Battāwī. He (rahimahullāh) was eager to achieve shahādah, so he got what he was yearning for, not dying until he made the apostates cry, debilitated them with wounds, and made them taste death and sadness that kindled in them the pain of defeat and failure. He (rahimahullāh) was already married for some time before his killing, and at the time of his arrest, he was bestowed with a child. He (rahimahullāh) was killed and never met his son. The worldly life, its pleasures, and adornments did not succeed in tempting him even for a single day. Every Muslim should raise his head out of pride for these men, with glory and honor, in the face of the people of falsehood. We ask Allah (ta’ālā) not to deprive us of His reward, nor to make us succumb to tribulations, and to generously bestow upon him as well as his brothers the reward and high rank in Jannah.

1 The attack is discussed briefly on pages 30-32 of issue #7.

42 SHUHADĀ‘

THE MURTADD PILOT WAS KILLED IN RETALIATION FOR AIRSTRIKES AGAINST MUSLIMS SUCH AS THOSE PICTURED ABOVE

In executing the mujāhidīn, Jordan is merely hastening the inevitable destruction of its tāghūt regime. Allah’s Messenger (sallallāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said, “Whoever harms an ally of Mine, then I have declared war against him” [Sahīh alBukhārī].

This week, the Islamic State released a video depicting the execution of the Jordanian crusader pilot, Mu’ādh Sāfī Yūsuf al-Kasāsibah. As displayed in the video, the Islamic State had resolved to burn him alive as retribution for his crimes against Islam and the Muslims, including his active involvement in crusader airstrikes against Muslim lands.

While the execution of Sājidah and Ziyād became the focus of international headlines, the focus for many ignorant hizbiyyīn became the manner in which the pilot was executed. Amongst them was the Jordanian Abū Sayyāf Muhammad ashShalabī, who stated, “The manner in which he was executed and the subsequent production of a video displaying his execution is a matter that opposes the teachings of the pure religion. Jihād was legislated to make the people enter the religion, not to make them turn away from the religion or to distort its image.”1

When the news of the video broke out, the tāghūt of Jordan who at the time was in Washington to meet with his masters at the White House – as is the habit of the crusader puppets – cut short his trip, returned home early, and promptly ordered the execution of the mujāhidah, Sājidah ar-Rīshāwī and the mujāhid, Ziyād alKarbūlī, both of whom had been imprisoned for nearly a decade by the murtaddīn of Jordan. The Islamic State had done everything it could to secure the release of both Sājidah and Ziyād, but Allah decreed that they would return to Him as shuhadā’, an incomparable honor which they had both desired, eagerly pursued, and supplicated their Lord for. We consider them so, and Allah is their judge. dabiq

This type of rhetoric is typical of hizbiyyīn – even those masquerading as supporters of the mujāhidīn – who continue to live under the authority of the murtadd puppets, and of defeatist Muslims who reside in the lands of kufr under the authority of the crusaders themselves, with no intention of making hijrah to those lands in which the word of Allah is the highest. Such people have had their religion diluted and, not surprisingly, are always amongst the first to speak out in any case where the 5

mujāhidīn display their harshness towards the crusaders, attempting to disguise their criticism towards the mujāhidīn as concern for the image of Islam. In burning the crusader pilot alive and burying him under a pile of debris, the Islamic State carried out a just form of retaliation for his involvement in the crusader bombing campaign which continues to result in the killing of countless Muslims who, as a result of these airstrikes, are burned alive and buried under mountains of debris. This is not to even mention

_____________

1 Abū Sayyāf ash-Shalabī exposed the full extent of his evil when displaying his remorse for the murtadd pilot in the face of the mujāhidīn. He also fabricated stories about the negotiations regarding the prisoners by claiming to be involved in these negotiations, whereas the representative of the Jordanian tāghūt from the beginning was ‘Āsim Tāhir al-Barqāwī (AKA Abū Muhammad al-Maqdisī, whose campaign of lies carries on). Furthermore, ash-Shalabī shamelessly lied by claiming that the murtadd Baathist ‘Izzat ad-Dūrī and other murtadd Baathists were members of the Islamic State and involved in the negotiations! So, a shameless liar – ash-Shalabī – is taken as a “jihādī mentor”! One can only say to him, “If you have no shame, then do as you wish” [Sahīh al-Bukhārī].

The Current Health Infrastructure

Category

Amount

The Islamic State provides the Muslims with extensive healthcare by running a host of medical facilities including hospitals and clinics in all major cities through which it is offering a wide range of medical services, from various types of complicated surgery to simpler services such as hijāmah. This infrastructure is aided by a widespread network of pharmacies run by qualified pharmacists and managed under the supervision and control of the Health Dīwān. Just as the medical staff in the hospitals and clinics are made up of qualified, trained professionals, the pharmacies are likewise only run by qualified and certified pharmacists.

been executed by the Islamic State in the most visceral way possible after the British and American governments apparently made a joint decision not to discuss terms for our release with our captors. And now, unless something changes very quickly and very radically, I await my turn.

THE REAL STORY BEHIND MY VIDEOS John Cantlie

Such an environment forces the mind to change. I’ve had to become pretty tough inside, sometimes just to get through each day. The Sheikh who originally captured James Foley and me back in November 2012 said, “to go through this you will need a heart of stone.” And he was right. I try to stay very calm, tolerant and accepting of my situation. Muslims call it ‘Qadr Allah,’ the will of God, who determines everything in advance. I am thankful for any comfort I receive and for every plate of food I get.

Forgive me in advance, but there are many references to myself in the following article. I dislike talking about myself, it appears arrogant, but it’s my voice and words being analyzed by journalists following the release of videos shot by the Islamic State. And to put things into perspective, I have to tell parts of my story. One observation is that the videos are scripted, and that perhaps I have no choice in the content. This is not true. The mujahidin suggest initial titles, I write the scripts, hand them over for any copy changes that need to be made and the videos are shot. It’s all very fast – the first eight videos were written, approved and filmed in just 12 days – but the mujahidin are like that. In quick, get the job done, move on to the next task.

When your brain has had nothing to work on for two years except basic survival, and is suddenly put onto centre stage in front of the world’s media, it’s a shock to the system. Nothing, nothing, kablam! You’re on. I was used to working for the news before, not being the news, and it’s very different. Every word you say is examined, especially if you’re in my situation. So to really understand the content of the films, and why I say what I sometimes say, you need to appreciate the story behind the scenes. As a friend, once said to me, I am nobody going nowhere. I am just a man in a dark room with a mattress on the floor. It is clean and comfortable; for a man in my position, it is enough. Four of my cellmates have already

It hasn’t been an easy road, and some of us had a bumpy ride. Once we were finally put into general population with dozens of European prisoners, we had to watch them all go home to their loved ones while we, the British and Americans, were left behind. That was a bitter pill to swallow, but nothing compared to what came next. Now I’ve had to watch as James, Steven Sotloff, David Haines and Alan Henning walked out of the door, one every two weeks since August 18th, never to return, knowing they were going to be killed and going to their deaths. And now they’re gone, their faces and deaths plastered all over the world’s headlines, four foolish policy victims. What does that do to a man? After enduring years of pain, darkness and regret, to see it all end in such a ghastly way when everyone else went home, to see ordinary guys, family men, loving fathers killed because their governments wouldn’t negotiate because of ‘policy,’ wouldn’t even discuss options for saving them with their families – can you begin to imagine how that feels? This wasn’t a fateful soul taken at random, it was individuals missing for years in one of the most high-profile hostage crisis seen in modern history, with dozens

of witnesses who had gone home testifying they were alive and could be helped. I believe even the mujahidin were genuinely surprised at how easily our countries left us for dead. We’d come all this way, putting one foot in front of the other, supporting one another when it got tough, praying together every day. We used to call it the Dead Zone when things got bad, after the area Everest climbers face above 26,000 feet as they approach the summit, when every step is agony, when they hardly have enough strength to carry on. We never gave up hope that our nations would negotiate for our release. But all that time, we never knew that the decision regarding our fate had been made months beforehand in Washington and Whitehall. We never knew that our families, for whom it was like being locked up in prison with us, were being blanked by the governments or being told there was nothing they could do. We never knew that the families were left to themselves to try anything and everything, while the men in charge folded their arms and offered their sympathies.

This publication strikes in against this aspects of oppression by the Western media. The use of datavisuals, infographics, photographic material, ... of (mostly) unknown facts to the western community will make us more aware of what is actually happening. The publication is mainly focussed on two aspects: first, the acts of voilence and secondly, the intern aspects of the organisation. By showing all the acts our view will be enlarged by the numerous of attacks that are hid from us. The intern aspects, at the other hand, will show us the strengths and weaknesses ISIL has. The task with this publication is to bring a full image of ISIL.

By using exclusively diagrams the matter was brought to the viewer in his purest form without any (or less) loss of information.

Daesh - Proces cover The main reason of a cover is to make the individual curious about the inside of the publication. The viewer needs to get somehow a connection with the publication to grab it. The question to create the cover therefore was “What is ‘Daesh’?”. Data and ISIL, this is what ‘Daesh’ is all about. First, the cover had a simplistic illustrational style based on the artist Noma Bar. The subject shown were the famous beheading videos of ISIL, typographical as pure illustrative. After this, intern data elements took over control. By making the artwork more serene it looks more functional and less decorative. The eventual cover shows the full title of the publication ‘Daesh - An ISIL data visualisation 2013 - 2016’. After taking a closer look at the cover we’ll see data appearing that indicates all the facts by numbers that are used in the data visualisation.

Why? Because it is similar to the Arabic words ‘Daes’, ‘one who crushes something underfoot’ and ‘Dahes’, translated as ‘one who sows discord’.

The task with this publication is to bring a more clear view upon the intern aspects of the organisation of ISIL. The only thing we get brought to us is about attacks near us, radical executions of neighbour countries. Most of the attention in the news goes to close encounters with a big amount of victims and if the perpetrator of the act is caught.

Why? Because it is similar to the Arabic words ‘Daes’, ‘one who crushes something underfoot’ and ‘Dahes’, translated as ‘one who sows discord’.

Daesh is an acronym for the Arabic phrase al-Dawla al-Islamiya al-Iraq al-Sham (Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant). Essentially, it’s another word for ISIS - but apparently one that ISIS militants do not favour.
