The Good Saying- Words on Extremism and Terrorism (2)

Terrorism is a psychological and intellectual illness, not a result of a divine religion. Only Allah knows where the near future is headed, along with death gangs, evil contractors, and blood brokers. We, as Muslims and Arabs, thought that what affected us of the destruction of everything is the end of the tragedy. Besides, we believed that destroying entire Arab and Islamic countries and displacing their people were all the days held in store. But we were surprised by it extending in the west, north, and south, as it extended before in the east.

Terrorism is, first and foremost, a belief and thought. It is, by its believers, a life philosophy that is worth death or suicide, not an outgrowth of divine religion, whatever this religion is. Terrorism is a psychological and mental illness that searches for justifications in allegorical texts, interpretation of commentators, and views of exegetists. It is worth mentioning that history and contemporary reality prove that terrorism motives are not limited to deviating religions towards forged misconceptions. Rather, terrorism often emerges for social, economic, and political compulsions. Besides, these conflicts and wars of doctrines and materialist philosophies -which have nothing to do with religion- claimed thousands but millions of victims and innocents.

Muslims didn’t happen to mix up between these crimes and the religions in whose name these crimes were committed. Those who burned the Holy Quran and mosques in the west must know that these acts are also considered terrorism by any measures. Needless to say, these acts are the fuel for terrorist thought from which we suffer. Thus, don’t respond to terrorism with similar terrorism. It is not expected from those who claim civilization and progress to insult the religious sensitivities of others in full view of people.
