Terrorism in view of Islam

According to the language, terrorism is the use of violence to instill fear, in an attempt to achieve a goal (especially political objectives), while the terrorist is a person who uses violence to create fear (usually for political purposes).

Islam is a religion which Allah approves, as a guide for mankind in achieving happiness in the world we are living now, and happiness in the life hereafter.

Allah has sent Prophet Muhammad with the religion of Islam to mankind as a mercy, and it is a great pleasure for humans not to bring destruction and disaster. Allah says:

Alanbiya 107

And We have sent thee not but as a mercy for all peoples. (Quran Sura Al-Anbiya:108)

From this verse, we can conclude that Islam is not a religion but aimed at undermining Islam is a good religion for all men according to the noble attitude of the Prophet Muhammad.

If someone claiming Muslims do terror and mischief that harms others, it does not mean Islam religion of terror but the people that have committed terror, and Islam itself hates terror even the person should be punished.

If many criminals come from diverse Muslim-majority nation, we can not claim that in Islam a lot of criminals. Because it can also occur in the predominantly Christian or Buddhist, which of course criminals from the country will be mostly Christian or Buddhist.

Inappropriate they call infidels against brother and his own family. If your (non-Muslims) claim these people as terrorists, Islam also considers them as terrorists, so Islam is not synonymous with terrorists.

Islam is a sacred religion of peace and love. In the teachings of Islam act of terrorism itself prohibited even threatened with a painful punishment for the perpetrators.

If there are Muslims who commit terror and to do a variety of damage that harms others, these people do not actually understand the true teachings of Islam. They are still terrorists even utter the phrase Allahu Akbar and claiming to represent Islam.

The Message and The Messenger: Why Islam and Prophet Muhammad Are an Inseparable Package

To understand Islam is to understand a fundamental, indivisible bond: the relationship between the divine message and its final messenger. Islam, as a faith and way of life, cannot be separated from the man chosen by God to deliver it, Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). They are not two distinct elements to be accepted individually; rather, they form a single, complete package. Accepting one inherently means accepting the other. This concept is not merely a matter of reverence for a historical figure. It is woven into the theological fabric of Islam, from its foundational declaration of faith to the daily practices of its followers worldwide. For a Muslim, believing in God (Allah) alone is incomplete without also believing in the prophethood of Muhammad (PBUH). This article explores the core reasons behind this inseparable connection. 1. The Gateway to Islam: The Shahada The very entry point into the Islamic faith is the declaration known as the Shahada. This testimony, the first of...

The Unmistakable Echo of Peace in Islam

In a world often marred by conflict and misunderstanding, the assertion that Islam is a religion of love and peace can sometimes be met with skepticism. However, a deeper exploration into the foundational texts and historical examples of Islam reveals a profound and enduring emphasis on tranquility, compassion, and reconciliation.  The very word "Islam" is derived from the Arabic root "salam," which means peace. This linguistic connection is not a mere coincidence but a reflection of the core principles that underpin this global faith. From the verses of the Qur'an to the teachings of Prophet Muhammad and the rich history of interfaith engagement, the call to peace resonates as an unmistakable echo. The Qur'an: A Divine Invitation to the Abode of Peace The Qur'an, the holy book of Islam, repeatedly calls believers towards a state of peace, both internally and externally. It describes God as "As-Salaam," which translates to "The Source of P...
