AMMAN (AFP) - Jordan's Islamic opposition issued a religious edict demanding that Muslim leaders oppose the US-led military presence in neighbouring Iraq.

"Sharia (Islamic law) insists that freeing Muslim land from enemy occupation is a duty for all Muslim leaders and their peoples," the Islamic Action Front said in a statement.


"All those who take part in the occupation or offer any support to it commit the greatest of sins and betray God, His Prophet, the land of Islam and its holy places," the statement said.
