My "opinion" is Surah Al-Mai'da, ayat 87: "O you who believe, do not make forbidden the good things that God has made permissible to you, and do not aggress; God does not like the aggressors." 🫶✌️

The ottoman empire wasn't an official authority in the way the Medinan Islamic State and Rashidun State were, tho. This argument doesn't help us tbh.
