The Islamic Verdict on Hijacking and Kidnapping
Source: www.fatwa-online.com
From that which is known to everyone
who has the slightest bit of common sense is that hijacking airplanes and
kidnapping children and the like are extremely great crimes, the world over.
Their evil effects are far and wide, as is the great harm and inconvenience
caused to the innocent; the total effect of which none can comprehend except
Allaah.
Likewise, from that which is known is that these crimes are not
specific to any particular country over and above another country, nor any
specific group over and above another group, rather it encompasses the whole
world.
There is no doubt about the effect of these crimes; so it is
obligatory upon the governments and those responsible from amongst the scholars
and other than them to afford these issues great concern, and to exert
themselves as much as possible in ending this evil.
