Top 12 Jahids forums

The "Top Twelve" list
of Arabic Salafyist/Jihadist forums.



123 Name: muslm.net



Description: The Salafi forum Ana al-Muslim
("I am Muslm") is the oldest Salafi forum,
having opened in 1996. Generally consider
a Salafi forum, but not necessarily Jihadist,
yet included on this page for good reason.

Name: alfirdaws.org



Description: The "paradise" forum,
this site was first reported publicly by
us in January of 2005. The was at least
originally, and may still be, linked to a
gentleman in Greece, possibly of Azeri
ethnicity. He appeared on the radar in
October of 2004, at which point he was
very active on the old al-Ansar forum.

Name: alhanein.com



Description: Egyptian forum of the
global jihad. There is circumstantial
evidence to link this site's members
to jihadist activity in Gaza, and perhaps
also to Hamas. (formerly hanein.org).



456 Name: tajdeed.org.uk



Description: Official site of Mohammed
Al-Massari's Tajdeed/Committee for the
Defense of Legitimate Rights organization
based in London.

Alias: tajdeed.org

Name: al-boraq.com



Description: Best known for it's
involvement in attacks against the
rival al-Hesbah forum. Oh, and there
is that small matter of
the death threat they posted against
Aaron Weisburd, the founder of
Internet Haganah and director of SoFIR.

Name: alhesbah.org



Description: A very exclusive forum
for Al Qaida operatives and supporters.
Curious how the site continues to function
uninterrupted while other forums and the
people who operate them face various hardships...



789 Name: www.alnusra.net



Description: Typical forum of the type,
operated from Gaza and from time to time
the home of rather detailed discussions
particularly related to weapons development.
After a period of down-time while moving
from one server to another the site

Name: ikhwan.net



Description: A forum of the Muslim
Brotherhood, and thus its inclusion in
this list is open to question. However,
at the level of the rank and file, there
is overlap, or cross-pollination, between
this forum of the Brotherhood and
those forums that represent the
Salafyist/Jihadist perspective. This
situation is analogous to that of Hamas
(the Gaza branch of the Brotherhood)
and its affinity with al-Qaida and the
global jihad. On 'paper' they are two
distinct strains of radical Islam. On the
ground the dividing lines - if they exist
at all, are blurred.

Name: ekhlaas.org



Description: The al-Ekhlaas forum
is interesting because it spans the
generations of jihadi forums, dating
as it does to the glory days of the
al-Ansar forum and linked as it was
for a time with Irhabi007. Nowadays
this forum tends to travel in the
company of the less well known al-Boraq site.
