Excerpt:
Pentagon spokesmen declined to comment on the fatwa, or religious edict, issued several years ago by the Assembly of Muslim Jurists in America (AMJA) that prohibits Muslims from providing food to U.S. and allied troops working in Muslim countries, such as Iraq and Afghanistan.
The fatwa by Main Khalid al-Qudah is dated June 20, 2007, and was issued in response to the question of whether a Muslim who owns a shipping company is allowed under Islamic law to transport food from a storage facility to a harbor, "knowing that these supplies will be sent to soldiers working in Islamic countries under the auspices of the allied forces."
"That would not be permissible, for that would be helping others in sin and transgression," the fatwa stated.
