The terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in New York on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, cost the lives of thousands of innocent people. This terrible savagery once more revealed a great danger to the peace and brotherhood of man: Terrorism.
Terrorism attacks innocent people who have done nothing wrong. It mercilessly slaughters little children… It leaves others orphaned… It destroys cities and kills families, inflicting suffering on millions of people.
Moreover, some terrorists carry out this evil in the so-called name of Islam, and blacken the name of Islam in the eyes of many people.
The people who did this cannot be Muslims.
Even if the terrorists have Muslim identities, the terrorism they perpetrated cannot be labeled ‘Islamic terrorism,’ just as it would not be called ‘Jewish terrorism’ if the perpetrators were Jews or ‘Christian terrorism’ if they were Christians. That is because murdering innocent people in the name of religion is unacceptable. Religion commands love, mercy and peace. Terrorism, on the other hand, is the opposite of religion: it is cruel, merciless and brings bloodshed and misery. Terrorism is a tool employed by racists, fascists and communists: in short, all those ideologies that reject religion and religious morality.
There is no room for terrorism in religion. As it is said in one Koranic verse, “God does not love wrongdoers” (The Koran, 3:140). In another verse, those who resort to terrorism, that is, who cause corruption in the earth are referred to in this way:
“As for those cause corruption in the earth, the curse will be upon them. They will have the Evil Abode.” (The Koran, 13:25)
For that reason, all true Muslims must stand up against terrorism. They must tell and demonstrate to the whole world that: Islam is a religion of peace and love, and that Islam Denounces Terrorism.
