- 3. What is Origin of ISIS? You may have heard about ISIS referred to as IS, ISIL, or Daesh. All of these acronyms describe the group in question. ISIS: Islamic State of Iraq and Syria was the name of the group when it captured Mosul in 2014 and became the terrorist juggernaut it is today. They named themselves that to assert their dominance in Syria (more on that later). ISIL: Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (aka Greater Syria) is the name that Obama uses to describe the group (pretty much only Obama uses it). Superficially speaking, it is just a translation thing. IS: Islamic State is the name the group gave itself after a "rebranding" effort when they wanted to show off their global strategy (they wouldn't be limited to Syria and Iraq anymore). Daesh: You may have heard French President Francois Hollande refer to the group by this name. This is essentially the Arabic acronym of the group. People assume that using this word somehow weakens them… it doesn't, because unfortunately in this case it is one of those "sticks and stones" things.

- 6. ROOTS Their roots basically come from the era of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and He warned us about their future existence and their doings when He (PBUH) came across to such people. While the Prophet was distributing something, 'Abdullah bin Dhil Khawaisira At- Tamimi came and said, "Be just, O Allah's Apostle!" The Prophet said, "Woe to you! Who would be just if I were not?" 'Umar bin Al-Khattab said, "Allow me to cut off his neck!” The Prophet said, “Leave him, for he has companions, and if you compare your prayers with their prayers and your fasting with theirs, you will look down upon your prayers and fasting, in comparison to theirs. Other Signs are, There will be men whose chest will be like the breast of a woman. These people will appear when there will be differences among the people (Muslims). They will recite Qur’an, but they will not understand it They will be immature in thoughts and young in age. But they will talk as they are the best among all the mankind.

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND The establishment of ISIS in Iraq and Syria occurred in four stages: •Stage one (2004-2006) — the establishment of the branch of Al-Qaeda in Iraq led by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. •Stage Two (2006-2011) — Establishment of the Islamic State in Iraq (ISI): ISI served as an umbrella network for several jihadi organizations that continued waging a terrorist-guerilla campaign against the United States. •Stage Three (2012-June 2014) — the strengthening of ISI and the founding of ISIS: After the American army withdrew from Iraq ISI became stronger. •Stage four (as of June 2014) — Dramatic ISIS military achievements: The most prominent was the takeover of Mosul, the second largest city in Iraq.

- 13. ISIS Atrocities ISIS brutalities are of sky’s limit and the worst part is that they are doing their so called Jahad on the name of Islam completely destroying the true essence of Islam. ISIS has "emphasized a narrow and selective reading of the Quran and other religious rulings to not only justify violence, but also to elevate and celebrate each sexual assault as spiritually beneficial, even virtuous.“ ISIS justifies its mistreatment of women, saying it is permissible under early Islamic law to capture and forcibly make "heretical" women sexual slaves. According to a released report recently that ISIS is now encouraging children to play soccer—using severed human heads as soccer balls. Children are also encouraged to watch public executions, including beheadings. So these khawarjis and their influences are growing like fire in forest and this is about what Hazrat Muhammad (SAW) warned us and advised us to kill them as we see them so that they may not get stronger. So the Muslims with true spirit of Islam are fighting against these Hell Fire Dogs and sooner or later In Shaa Allah they all will be send to their destines i.e Hell.
