ISIS Asks Terrorists To Wash Their Hands And Avoid Travelling To Coronavirus-Infected Countries

Looks like regular people are not the only ones taking precautions in order to avoid falling victim to the ongoing Coronavirus crisis in the world - the Islamic State (ISIS) has also put out a set of guidelines for its terrorists to follow.

According to this tweet that was posted by Twitter user @rcallimachi, ISIS has released guidelines on how to stay safe from the pandemic. They issued the directives in their latest newsletter which was published in al-Naba. In the newsletter, they have advised jihadists to avoid travelling to countries which are infected by the coronavirus.

ISIS pores over religious texts. Comes out in favor of putting your trust in God but also in favor of quarantine, hand-washing & running from the sick like from a lion. Their rivals in Qom stopped after No. 1. Thx to ?@ajaltamimi? for his translation https://t.co/b08Jffvj6t

Along with that, they have also written that the terrorists should wash their hands at all times even when they wake up in the middle of the night. They have also been told to stay far away from an infected person and escape from them 'Like you are running away from a lion'.

The Iraqi-based militant group has also asked its terrorists to have faith in God and that the only reason the pandemic is taking over the world is to punish people and only those who are chosen by God will be infected.

Their guidelines include covering one's mouth at all times, to avoid sneezing out in the open and to cover their mouths and noses while doing so. The advice is just like the directives that have been issued globally by health officials.

If the pandemic does have a reason, it should infect those who inflict violence and hate in this world; not the thousands of innocent lives it has already taken.
