sharia committee in a rebel-held area of Aleppo issued a fatwa deeming
croissants ‘haram’ (forbidden in Islamic law) because of their “colonial”
significance, pan-Arab daily Asharq al-Awsat reported on Tuesday.
Croissants’
crescent shape celebrates European victory over Muslims, according to the fatwa
(religious ruling)."
