(Original Arabic text and English translation)

The Council of Senior Ulema considers the ruling on the "financing of terrorism" by judging that "terrorism" is a crime aiming at destabilizing security, and constitutes a grave offense against innocent lives as well as against properties whether public or private; such as: blowing up of dwellings, schools, hospitals, factories, bridges; airplanes (including hijacking), oil and pipelines, or any similar acts of destruction or subversion outlawed by the Islamic Shariah [law].
