"The cleric — who heads Al-Azhar, considered one of the top centers of religious learning in the Sunni Muslim world — reiterated a fatwa, or religious edict, backing suicide attacks on "aggressors," like Israel, but condemned acts like the terrorist strikes against America.

A suicide bomber, who attacks an enemy who is occupying his land or acting aggressively against sacred places or his freedom, is a martyr, "but exploding oneself and killing children, women and men who have nothing to do with war ... is not accepted" by strict Islamic law, Tantawi said. "
