Sheikh Fuad delivered in Mogadishu, yesterday, a speech which took the people by Surprise. The Sheikh warned the people not to use the word "murtad" easily and it shouldn't be applied to any one who works and goes to the government side. By labelling some one as "murtad" you are saying the he should be killed at sight and such Fatwa carries a lot of danger.
He stipulated that there are a lot of mistakes which needs to be ratified and for the first time he questioned for how long Al Shabab remain in its current role as" Jabhad" or guerrilla force.Roumors say that he lost his ecxutive position due to his criticism of the Amir of Al Shabab and that he represents the nationalist members among al Shabab which is thought to have lost the power struggle in recent weeks. He used to be extream and his speeches in 2007 which are on record were encouraging people to kill any body who goes to the governement side even if he is simple driver - This is a complete change of creed.
