Is it okay to kill an animal that poses a threat to your life? Like of someone in the fight sets a vicious dog on you?

Yes, but only if it poses a threat to your life. It is also allowed to kill and eat an animal (that is not generally allowed -- e.g. pig) to prevent starvation if say, you are in the jungle or desert -- i.e. extreme cases.

It is also forbidden to kill journalists since they are classified as "reporters of the truth". The scholars themselves have written several letters to the leader of ISIS and have very clearly pointed out everything that him and his barbaric organization has done wrong.
Reporters today will tell anything but the truth do a story though sadly. I know a teacher who once had a student who was like the poster boy teenage boy. Smart, handsome, captain of the basketball team, kind... And then he died in a car accident. A reporter asked my teacher who had him if she had anything to say about him. My teacher said what you would expect, he was a good kid and all that. Reporter: wow everyone is just saying good things about him, he mustve just never have done anything wrong! My teacher " well he may have not been an angel but he was a good kid..." What was printed: "teacher of boy killed in accident says he was 'definitely not an Angel....'"
It's been said before and it will be again: isis partakers do not and never will be a viable representation of the entire international Muslim demographic . I mean honestly.
The point is that the terrorists aren't Muslims. They are extremists.

@vlekkie You cannot say it is BS unless you yourself have studied the religion top to bottom. Trust me when I say it is legitimate. I can list several other rules of war for you, if you like?

May I also point out that reading the Qur'an is not the same thing as studying the religion. Anybody can read the book but it's not just black and white text. It is extremely complicated to study, given that the language used is a completely different type of Arabic with its own rule set, and the fact that it is not so direct.
From experience eh? You've seen all Muslims kill women, children, old people, prisoners, and those who've surrendered? You must have had a very eventful life, as you are so easily able to assure us that you have seen every single one of the BILLION Muslims break EVERY SINGLE one of the rules mentioned above? And what you've heard. So yes, you've heard the news say that ISIS, Boko Haram, Al-Quaida, and more have committed terrible acts. I agree, those TERRORRISTS are horrible excuses of life, but do you think every single Muslim is a terrorist? How about the Muslim children killed by ISIS or the other groups, were they terrorist as well? The fact that you could label a BILLION people as violent savages disgusts me.
Ok, lets think mathematically. Let's say every single Muslim has killed one woman, one child, one old person, one prisoner, one person who surrendered, and one person who ran away, that would mean a total of 6 billion people have been killed by the CURRENT 1 billion mulims in this world. 6 billion dead people plus 1 billion Muslims = more than current world population. So what does this mean? Your experiences and what you've heard are INCORRECT, and you're simply an uneducated bigot who rejects logic in favor of idiocy, making YOU one of the scum that makes this world a terrible place. I hope you feel good, keep polluting the gene pool and the world, we appreciate your efforts, vlekkie.
first off, you're getting pissed at someone for calling you stupid, even though you insulted 1 billion people. you then replied by calling them stupid again. face it vlekkie, you're not very bright; you cannot even comprehend your own words.
Some of these rules are stated in the Qur'an, others have been made clear in the teachings of the Prophet himself -- these are independently compiled books known as Hadith, and are available online and offline. It is best to ask a trusted, learned scholar.
wasn't ISIS an extremist tumoric growth from Al Qaeda that was completely unanticipated and undesired, even by Al Qaeda itself?
