Pro-ISIS Outlet: Muslims Are Forbidden From Relying On Mainstream And Social Media For News

November 11, 2021

On November 9, 2021, a pro-Islamic State (ISIS) outlet released a poster on Telegram condemning the use of mainstream and social media as a news source. Titled "Be Alert And Obey Your Lord," the poster depicted the logos of several social media platforms, with a headline reporting on the killing of a senior ISIS commander in Iraq. The text of the poster warned the Quran forbids Muslims from believing news reports released by "sinful" media outlets, particularly concerning news of ISIS. The poster then noted that anti-ISIS clerics get their inaccurate information about the organization from mainstream media.
