EGYPT: AL-AZHAR ULEMA SAYS SUICIDE BOMBERS "ARE CONDEMNED TO HELL"

In a welcome development, the ulema of Cairo's al-Azhar university, the highest
seat of Sunni Muslim learning, last Thursday renewed their criticism of suicide
bombers, this time underlining how many Islamists confuse "suicide" with
"martyrdom" in defense of ones faith of country. In Islam, they explained, those
who commit suicide "are condemned to hell." In this case they are not considered
"true Muslims" even if they are pushed to this dramatic gesture by religious
motivations. (See www.adnki.com/index_2Level_English.php?cat=Terrorism&loid=8.0.316135384&par=0)
