Le Statut des Moines
Le Statut des Moines is a short text by a classical Muslim jurist taken out of context by an extreme radical group as justification for the murder of unarmed civilians committed to inter-faith dialogue. In 1996 in Algeria the Groupe Islamique Armé (Armed Islamic Group or GIA) published an announcement that it had authorized the murder of seven Trappist monks in Tibhirine and quoted from the text of the great Muslim jurist Ibn Taymiyyah.
