Of course, my reflex instinct is to support the destruction of such mushrik temples; I gave speeches supporting the destruction of the Buddhist idols by the Taliban 15 years ago; but I wonder. ..If the Muslims who opened Sham originally didn’t do it. …why should Da’esh?
Surely the army of Umar understood tawhid better.
They claim to be the ultimate salafis; but when the salaf opened Sham they didn’t do this. And they claim to be reviving the khilafah; but no khilafah did this in over 1000 years.
