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.

We are given intellect, free will, and a sense of morality, all of which make us responsible for our actions. According to Islamic teachings, human life is not just about survival or pleasure, but about fulfilling specific roles assigned by Allah. The Qur’an outlines three primary roles for mankind: Servant of Allah (‘abdullah) Vicegerent (khalifah) on earth Bearer of the trust (amanah) These roles define the duties and responsibilities of humans in the world and serve as guidance for a purposeful life. 1. Human as Servant of Allah The most fundamental role of a human being is to worship Allah. Worship is the central purpose of creation, as explicitly stated in the Qur’an: “And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.” (Surah Adh-Dhariyat [51]: 56) In Islam, worship is not confined to ritual acts like prayer, fasting, or pilgrimag...

The Struggles of Prophet Muhammad and His Companions in the Early Days of the Islamic Caliphate

The rise of Islam was not merely the establishment of a religion—it was the birth of a transformative movement that reshaped the spiritual, political, and social fabric of the world. At the center of this monumental change stood Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his devoted companions. The early years of Islam were marked by profound struggle, sacrifice, and perseverance, as they laid the foundation for what would later become the Islamic Caliphate. The Revelation and the Beginning of Opposition In 610 CE, Prophet Muhammad received the first revelation from Allah (God) through the Angel Jibril (Gabriel) in the Cave of Hira near Mecca. At the time, Mecca was a center of trade, tribalism, and polytheism.
