In a video posted on the Internet on November 2, Russian ISIS fighter Abu Muhammad Ar-Rusi called on fellow Muslims to join the Jihad. "You accuse us of the mass killing of Muslims, saying that we are blood-shedding murderers. Didn't the Prophet Muhammad and his companions shed blood?" he said in the Russian-language video, adding that "The Messenger of Allah killed 700 people in a single battle." The English subtitles provided by ISIS read: "Allah's Messenger... killed 700 prisoners after one of the battles."

Anyone who sits idly by and does not help the Islamic State today will be held accountable on Judgment Day.

You accuse us of the mass killing of Muslims, saying that we are blood-shedding murderers. Didn't the Prophet Muhammad and his companions shed blood?

I say to all our Muslim brothers and sisters: Join the Islamic State. Join your brothers. Do not wait until death comes to you. Do not wait until the path is blocked. As long as you can, perform hijra. The hijra is a duty. If you read any book on Islamic faith, you will see that it is a duty to perform hijra from Dar Al-Kufr to Dar Al-Islam. Do not procrastinate. Do not delude yourselves. Do not say to yourselves that you will perform the hijra tomorrow or the day after.
