The Layeha: 29 strictures for Taliban conduct

NEWSWEEK obtained a copy this week of a Taliban operations manual, a "nine-page, blue and white, pocket-size pamphlet called the Layeha, which Mullah Mohammed Omar began distributing last month" and which Taliban fighters have been seen carrying. The guidebook lays down 29 strictures for conduct...

  • Thanks to Peter for his comment--which includes the link to the full text--   and for pointing out the provision on NGO's which the document claims come "under the guise of helping people but in fact are part of the regime"--and thus subject to harsh treatment.
  • Government teachers—seen as tools of the "puppet regime"—should be warned to stop teaching and beaten if they refuse. If "found to be teaching against Islam" they should be killed by the unit's commander.
  • Jihadis are forbidden to "disturb innocents," "raid houses," "take weapons from civilians" or "take people's money or personal property" (rules which seem to be frequently broken).
  • Under anti-vice guidelines, smoking is banned, as is the practice of bringing "young boys without beards" to the combat zone or to a fighter's home.
  • Fighters cannot ransom prisoners without the agreement of a senior commander.
  • Spies cannot be punished until judged by an Islamic court.

Peter

Unluckily you forgot to mention one important point of the pamphlet:
"Those NGOs that come to the country under the rule of the infidels must be treated as the government is treated. They have come under the guise of helping people but in fact are part of the regime. Thus we tolerate none of their activities, whether it be building of streets, bridges, clinics, schools, madrases (schools for Koran study) or other works. If a school fails to heed a warning to close, it must be burned. But all religious books must be secured beforehand."
