Mutilation of Dead Bodies: Islamic Sharia VS ISIS Sharia It was the custom of Ignorance to mutilate the dead bodies. In battle of Uhad, the wife of Abu Sufyan (leader of Bani Umiyyah) ate the liver of Hazrat Hamza (the Uncle of Prophet Muhmmad (saw)). Islam ended this custom. «نهی النبی عن النهبی والمثلة»(صحیح بخاری) Sahih Bukhari,Volume 3, Book 43, Number 654 : The Prophet forbade robbery, and also forbade mutilation of bodies. «لاتغدرو ا ولاتغلوا ولاتمثلوا»(صحیح مسلم) Sahih Muslim, The Book of Jihad and Expedition: Prophet (saw) said:...do not embezzle the spoils; do not break your pledge; and do not mutilate (the dead) bodies. When 1st Caliph Abu Bakr sent an army towards Syria, he advised them to not to mutilate the dead bodies and to not to kill the old ones, women and children. All the historians and Hadith collectors recorded it. ISIS pose themselves as champions of Islam, but why then they hate Islamic Sharia so much that they have to become god themselves, and make their own Sharia where mutilating the dead bodies is Halal for them? History: Bani Umaiyyah and Mutilation of Dead Bodies First head which was cut in Islamic history, it was of Ammar Yasir. After battle of Siffin, the head of Ammar Yasir was brought to Muawiyyah and 2 persons were fighting each other and every one was claiming that he cut that head. (Ref: Musnad Ahmad bin Hanbal, Tabqaat Ibn Saad) Second head belonged to Sahabi 'Amr bin al-Hamiq. This Sahabi took part in killing of 'Uthman. Ziyad cut of his head and sent it to Muawiyyah in Damascus, where Muawiyyah paraded it in the whole city. (Ref: Tabaqat Ibn Saad, al-Istiaab, al-Badaya, Tehdib-ul-Tehdib) Third head belonged to Muhammad bin Abi Bakr. When Muawiyyah captured Egypt, he was taken as prisoner, then killed and then put in the skin of donkey and finally burnt. (Ref: al-Istiaab, History of Tabari, Ibn Athir and Ibn Khaldoon) Fourth head belonges to Imam Hussain (as) and his companions who were slaughtered in Karbala. Hussain's head was cut and his dead body was mutilated through horses feet. Then all these heads were taken to Kufa and from there to Damascus to Yazeed. (Ref: History of Tabari, Ibn Athir and al-Badaya) Nauman bin Bashir was initially the supporter of Bani Umayyah. But later he supported Ibn Zubair. He was killed and his head was presented to his wife as gift (Ref: Tabaqat Ibn Sa'ad, al-Badaya) Ma'sab bin Zubair's head was paraded in Kufa and Egypt (Ref: Ibn Athir) Head of Sahabi Abdullah Ibn Zubair and his companions Ibn Safwan and Ibn Hazm were cut off and were sent from Mecca to Madina, and then from Madina to Damascus where these heads were paraded in the city and then they were hanged for several days. (Ref: al-Istiaab, History of Tabari, al-Badaya and Ibn Khaldoon).
