Islam is the most susceptible

religion to exercise terrorism.

"I am one of the servants of Allah. We do our duty of fighting for
the sake of the religion of Allah. It is also our duty to send a call to
all the people of the world to enjoy this great light and to embrace
Islam and experience the happiness in Islam. Our primary mission
is nothing but the furthering of this religion."
Osama bin Laden, May 1998
Terrorism recognizes no law. According to definition of terrorism it is the
unofficial or unauthorized use of violence and intimidation in the pursuit of
political aims. Terrorists groups with secular mythos and irreligion aims tend to
undertake precisely selected acts of violence in order to achieve their political
aims. In this process they try to maintain casualties at minimum level as their goal
is to spread terror among the people and make them to join their organization. This
type of terrorism is mostly opting by new organizations. The reason to keep
casualties at minimum level is to retain backlash that might damage the
organization. Contrarily, religiously oriented groups typically attempt to inflict as
many casualties as possible. According to their frame of work, loss of life is
neglected, the more deaths the better. Terrorists consider their moral duty to kill
those who are non-believers on their vision. Even if they are intended targets or die
in collateral damage they deserve death if they are non-believers. Target selected
by the groups often reflect their aims and thoughts. Groups motivated by secular or
political penetration will target emblematic authority, government offices, banks or
even multinational companies and organizations e.g. World Trade Center
depending on the size of the organization. Religious groups follow the same
symbols but with greater human casualties. Religious groups tend to add
religiously affiliated individual such as missionaries to targeting equation. In
November 15,2014 UAE issued a list of 83 Islamic groups which it classified as
terrorists organizations. Here is a reason why this is all happening in Islam.
According a study released by Pew Research Center, Islam, the worlds fastest
growing faith, will leap from 1.6 billion (2010) to 2.76 billion in 2050, according
to the Pew study. At that time Muslims will make up nearly 1/3rd of the total world

projected population of about 9 billion people. There is a concept about Islam

which makes it susceptible and reasonable to practice Islam which is Islam is a
totalitarian ideology that rejects Democracy. Almost all the Islamic countries have
some democratic structures which is not acceptable by the mullahs and other
Islamic believers. The other reason could be to present a negative image of Islam
before the world by spreading terror. Being Islam is the most penetrated and well
known religion the terrorists will get more recognition and attention of the world.
But how Islam became most known religion?
It all started after September 11,2001 attacks. Those attacks were a series of four
coordinated attacks by the Islamic terrorist group Al-Qaeda on United Stated World
Trade Center. And in reply from USA it started war in Afghanistan on October 7,
2001. The President George W. Bush announced the beginning of war in
Afghanistan. At that time Afghan Taliban and Al-Qaeda are the most known
militants groups. There groups were acknowledged by only Pakistan, Saudi Arabia
and United Arab Emirates. This war became the main cause to start terrorism
specially in Pakistan. Terrorists from Afghan border started to sneak in Pakistan
and started penetrate in Pakistan by establishing small affiliate groups and
organizations with Islamic names. Because Pakistan is Islamic state so everyone
would have no doubt on their work as the organization is Islamic and no one tried
to see what they are doing behind the curtain of their name. As after the war was
started in Afghanistan so the terrorists were weakened and trying to grab shelter as
the US forces have landed on Afghan soils. So for them, the best and ultimate
destination was Pakistan. The terrorists and militants started to migrate from border
some of the disguised in the form of civilians and some using stealthy way to enter
in Pakistan. The tribal areas like FATA and Baluchistan were ideal for them to
reside as they were alike the people who were already living there. Most of the
Taliban and Al-Qaeda leader were shot dead in Afghanistan and some of them like
Osama Bin Laden were hided in Afghanistan. Those who had made their way to
Pakistan decided to build new their force. But the difficulty for them was how to
catch people and train them. They learned their environment and surroundings. As
the Talibans were Muslims so they chose Islam as the best way to build their
force. They started to open religious institutions in the name of Holy teachings and
making them good Muslims. But inside of the institutions they were actually brain
washing of students by teaching them about people who are against Islam
depicting them as enemy of Islam. In 2013, Turkistan Islamic Party, an Al-Qaeda
affiliated terror group released a short video showing childrens firing weapons at
training camp in Pakistan while they were also taught teachings of Holy Quran.

Moreover, in the name of Deeni Madaris children are trained for terrorism in the
name of jihad. Those who were attending madrassas are almost all poor and around
1.5 million were enrolled in in these institutions in Pakistan in 2005. But the
question was being Muslims like them? Are they teaching true Islam? A general
answer is no! and to support this I quote a fatwa that was issued by at least 50
Islamic Scholars of Pakistan belonging to Sunni Etihad Council and the fatwa
states that;
Talibans interpretation of Islam was incorrect and was deviant
from the actual interpretation of the Sharia.
Islam teaches peace and brotherhood not war. The biggest jihad is jihad-bin-nafs
means fighting against your own self desires, ideas and power of lust, anger and
insatiable imagination placing all of them under the dictates of reason and faith in
obedience to Gods command, and finally, purging all satanic ideas and influences
from ones soul. On the contrary Talibans Al-Qaeda and other jihadi groups are
training other kind of jihad to kill innocent people so they will be awarded a place
in Jannah. This clearly depicts their ill thoughts and missions. They cant be true
Muslims who are killing other Muslims without having any solid reasons. They
just see Islam tag and stick it to their forehead portraying negative image of Islam.
The other thing that makes extremists to choose Islam is the concept of jihad and
framework of living life in the light of Islam. Today is a modern day where people
tend to be more communicative and interact with each other with more freedom
than ever but according to Islam teachings these all things are forbidden and thats
where the extremists take the lead. They hold the tail of Religion Islam disguising
as being the true Muslims with the aims to impose Islamic law in the region. But as
a matter of fact they are no way near about Islam teachings. They are just using
Islam name because of its unique and one if its own kind of model living life.
Majority of them are not even Muslims but they pretend to be Muslims. Then these
extremists group recruit Muslims people to pursuit in their targets and ambitions.
And their targets are and were never be to impose the true teachings of Islam. They
just wanted to take over land and build their own place of living under the name of
Islam where only their laws are valid but their laws are totally mirror image of
Islamic laws. These extremists groups turned into organization after they get
stable and become recognized in the eyes or world. In todays world many old
Islamic terrorists organizations and groups are either become feeble or ended. The
only and most famous in news todays day is ISIS.

Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), is a Wahhabi/Salafi and jihadi extremist
militant group proclaim to be Caliphate and Islamic State. ISIS is mainly led by
sunni Arabs from Iraq and Syria. Their leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is named to
be their caliph. ISIS proclaiming to be a Caliphate with the image of religious,
political and military authority over all Muslims worldwide. But as a matter of fact
ISIS is the totally wrong image is Islam. According to Obama remarks No
religion condones the killing of innocent and vast majority of ISIS victims were
Muslims. ISIS is recognized by no government. It is just a terrorist organization
pure and simple. And it has no vision other than slaughter of all whoever stands in
its way. These terrorists are unique and insane in their brutality. They execute
captured prisoners just to prove how savage they are, they kill children, rape and
force women into marriage. In barbarism they took lives of two innocent American
Journalists. This all is violence of Islamic law and policy. ISIS force Muslims to
convert into Islam but this is not fair in Islam. A person has to be completely
willing from his heart to come to Islam. Now the stats also show that ISIS is a
false representation of Islam. Active participants in ISIS consists mainly of young
Sunni men living in the Arab world. You may know that but if you see deeply it
shows (1) young, (2) Sunni, (3) men who are (4) Arabs, if you were to graphically
depict these feature in a Venn diagram of the worlds 1.6 billion Muslims,
prospective ISIS supporters would be a minority within a minority. Four out of five
Muslims arent Arabs or live in Middle east. Among them who do live maybe a
quarter are young Sunni males, and most of them show little side to actively
support ISIS. When you do Math, it appears that the available market for ISIS
ideas is only 5% of the global Muslim community and as of today most of that
market isnt buying. ISIS is a complex operation whose followers have various
notions and motives. They all maybe Muslims but that doesnt show that they all
own the same exact creed. ISIS isnt the first militant organization that has
captured young generation to its cause by arrogating to represent a higher calling.
Hitlers early appeal to anomic young males in the beer halls of Munich The
notion of thousands years Reich, the need for lebensraum, the scapegoating of
Jews was similar to the appeals that ISIS issues today. Every culture has large
numbers of young males who can be utilized chiliastic philosophy, not because of
the content of the vision, but because young generation hanker for power and
status and resources. The underlying are some motivational dynamics that states
why have massive success at recruiting even when they marry completely opposite
ideas. If you look at governance system of ISIS, it would be impossible to that it is

just making things up as it goes and in the end giving it Islamic luster only after the
fact.
According to Travel and Leisure Magazine 8 out of 10 most dangerous countries in
the world are Muslims and Pakistan is topping the list ranking at 1st position. And
there are total 46 Muslims countries where Muslims are in majority and most of
them are in state of war against terrorism. So in reference to these countries, the
one reason that might be the cause of Islamic terrorism is that there is freedom of
speech and expression in Islam. Every person has the right to express his feelings
and thoughts. But some people uses that right in the wrong manner. As there is no
hindering to build and run organizations in most of the Muslims countries like in
Pakistan so that causes the integration of terrorism in Muslims world. Most of
these organizations are either supported or supporting the terrorism. This makes
this a whole unique terrorist system where on one side financial help is coming and
from the other side weapons are coming. They all have one single aim which could
be to gain the control of the country of impose sharia law as much as they can.
They believe in the caliphate and legacy system not on political system like Prime
Minister and elections. This all happens under the Umbrella of Islam, noting that
this is what Islam says. These groups believe in freedom of speech but limit only
on to themselves. They consider themselves superior to hall humans and regard
themselves as they are gifted some special powers from Allah. They pictured in
their mind that the western world all other who are western followers are sinners
and their ultimate place is Hell. They teach and brainwash their soldiers that if they
kill them all the non-believers then you will go to Heaven. But according to Islam
this is not the ultimate way to enter in Heaven. Shockingly these terrorists
organizations are supported by the Islamic organizations and NGOs. Jamaat-eIslami is one of the Pakistan very well knowned political party of Pakistan. First it
was accused and then proofs showed that it is linked with terrorism and is
supporting terrorist organizations in Pakistan. The leader of Jamaat-e-Islami
Maulvi Siraj-ul-Haq was spotted at funeral prating alonglisde Faqir Mohammad, a
terrorist complicit in the deaths of hundreds of Pakistanis. This clearly shows that
in most of the cases Muslims are supporting others to kill Muslims. And according
to Islam teaching a person who killed one human killed the whole humanity and
one who saved ones life saved the whole humanity.
Now summarizing this topic, this has been clearly defined and demonstrated with
the examples that Islam is like what it has been presented in front of the world.
This is a religion of peace not protest. Islam teaches us brotherhood not bloodshed.

Every Muslim is brother of other Muslim and all the Muslims are Unite. But what
terrorism has done to Islam image is un-expected, unimagined. Terrorism has taken
image of Islam to another side where it is laid out as cruel religion with ethnic style
of living. But there is nothing like it. Most of the negative imaging of Islam is
done by a relatively small minority of Christians and Jews and those writers and
reporters who are under their power. These people are not going to simply stop if
we rejected the death penalty for apostasy. They will just find something else to
paint Islam negatively. The only way they can stop is if the challenge of Islam is
removed and Muslims start behaving like them. The Holy Qur`an talks about such
Jews and Christians when it says:
Neither the Jews nor the Christians will be pleased with you (O
Muhammad) till you follow their millah. Say: Surely, the guidance
of God is the (true) guidance. And if you were to follow their
desires after what has come to you of knowledge, then you would
not have any protector or helper against God. (2:120)
