    The Taliban were until their recent victory in August 2021, the largest Islamist movement in Afghanistan, though since 2014 they've been competing with ISIS-K, a branch of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria active in Afghanistan and the surrounding countries. But why do these two movements, who seemingly share such a similar fundamentalist and extreme interpretation of political Islam, hate one another so much?

    My humanities professor visited Afghanistan in 2007, He was fortunate enough to interview members of the Taliban, he was welcomed and treated with respect in the small village he settled in for 3 days, he was vetted before he conducted his interview, he was not allowed to record/film anything, for obvious reasons, but he said it was by far one of the most educational experience he’s ever had about the Muslim world. He didn’t feel threatened at all but he was also very open minded about what they had to say and their beliefs.

      A lot about their ideology he didn’t really go into detail, he generally summarized his experience very neutrally, it was a big class and he didn’t want to risk offending anyone. It’s a sensitive topic bud, you’ll find hard to believe this, but he legit had 2 Muslim students drop the class for the fact he went to interview them, idk why, I don’t care why. He did say he learned a lot about the soviet intervention in the 70s and how all that rooted in place to what the taliban is now.

      @Ballah 666 I'm not claiming, or at least not trying to claim, that every person in the region has no desires beyond "living their life in peace" - what I'm saying, and what the original comment is saying, is that there most certainly are a fair few people in that region who desire just that: To no longer live their lives in a warzone where they're at constant risk of getting shot, bombed or otherwise murdered, be it by the US and its allies or by these radical, far-right Islamist groups that the US helped kickstart in order to thwart the USSR during the cold war.
      A fair few of them also carry a grudge. I'd argue that given how hard they got screwed over, that's quite reasonable too. I don't think its particularly productive, but I can definitely understand it.
      And I also suspect that for most of them, the desire to not get killed in a warzone again outweighs the grudge they've got. I sure as hell hope so at least. Otherwise this mess is only going to get worse still.

    The main reason for the Al-Qaeda relationship with the Taliban is because of the tribal ties due to marriage, since many foreigner Arabs came to Pashtun Afghanistan during the Soviet invasion and married into the tribes, which afforded them certain tribal rights and protections.

    The Taleban are a nationalistic movement and does not care much for what happens outside the borders of Afghanistan. Ideologically speaking they are different too. The Taleban are hanafi and have Sufi tendencies much like the rest of the people of Afghanistan, although they are more strict in their understanding of the shariah. As for isis they are salafis and they have virtually no support amongst the people of Afghanistan.

      later the sahabi asked him, when took the membar he did something he normally never did, HE SAID "JIBEREL A.S. CURSED 3 TYPES OF PEOPLE AND I VOUCHED THEM" WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE THAT ARE CURSED BY JIBREEL A.S. AND THE PROPHET PBUH AFFIRMED???
      When the name of the Prophet is mentioned and they don't say these simple words :"Sallallahu alaihi wasallam" Jibreels curse is on that man and I affirm it.
      ISIS on purpose wrote "Rasoul MUAHMMAD" look any hadiths and any other writings when the prophets name is mentioned you will see "Sallallahu alaihi wasallam".

    There are differences of ideologies between ISIS and Taliban. These ideologies that makes majority of Muslim supports Taliban but not ISIS.
    ISIS kills anyone that is not professing Islam and those who do not support their causes. If you are a Muslim (meaning someone that professes Islam), but you do not support their cause, you can be ruled out by them as non-muslim, meaning that your blood is 'halal' to be spilled by them. This of course contradicted with the teaching of Quran and hadis of prophet Muhammad S.A.W.
    Isis took pieces of quranic recitation and hadis that seems to legalised their causes and brainwash the youth for radicalism while at the same time abandoning the rest of the quranic recitation that forbid forcing other people to accept Islam.
    Meanwhile, Taliban fights for the freedom of Afghanistan, but at the same time following Quran and hadis very strictly. You wont be killed just because you are a non-muslim. When ISIS rose to power, the controlled area of Taliban in Afghanistan were further reduced and obliterated because people started to have separate ideologies. Hence, they fought against each other.

      As for taking verses and leaving some, then this is literally what all Muslims scholars do to derive rulings, as one newer verses override the older, a verse in Surat At-Tawbah (The verse of the Sword) is taken over Surat Al-Kafirun for example, and there is no difference of opinion amongst the scholars of this religion regarding this, that Surat Al-Kafirun is abrogated. so again you are ignorant, spreading ignorance.

The reason why Russia hosted the TB is because they knew the US was supporting them and they made a Russo-TB deal to fight Daesh in Afghanistan.

But he did nothing as it was close to election year n ppl actually liked that guy bcuz they'd elected him democratically n suspected nothing bad of him..
