Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Keeping in mind that I'm not an expert on Islam by any metric, I don't think there's any religious prohibitions, because executing people was something that ISIS was notorious for. I'll also note that this tendency was one of the reasons everyone else in the region dogpiled them.
ISIS has nothing to do with Islam. They is the Israel of Islam. Zionism is not Judaism. ISIS is not Islam. Almost everything ISIS does is strictly forbidden in the Quran.
Fundamentalists picking and choosing which rules apply and which individuals are considered valid targets isn't a good way to understand the tenets of a religion. Which of course means Hamas may also pick and choose, but just because ISIS did something doesn't mean it's the norm.
Removed for using the slur "retard", please edit in another adjective so I can re-approve your comment.
I cannot edit a deleted comment, so here is a revision of what I posted:
ISIS did not enact Sharia law when it comes to war. Their unhinged interpretation of the Qu'ran (they did not accept not the full thing ofc just the passages that they deemed relevant for their agenda) was basically that everyone that does not accept their ultra-fanatic extremism is infidel. And then they proclaimed Jihad and in Jihad, infidels are cleansed (also not the meaning of Jihad in the Qu'ran, but ISIS' interpretation).
It's best to forget about ISIS when talking about rules of Islam, they are about as much Islamic as the KKK are Protestant Christians.
Ah, noted for next time. Thanks for your patience.
