Does Islam Produce Terrorists

:::note[Description]

Question:

Why does Islam produce so many terrorists? - An exploration of the claim that Islam inherently produces terrorists, and how Muslims respond to this stereotype. :::

Answer:

The question is misleading because Islam is against terrorism and hence cant produce any terrorists. However there are few Muslims who CLAIM to follow Islam & indulge in terrorist activities but in reality such people lack knowledge of Islam and adherence to Islamic principles and are very few compared to global Muslim population of more than 1 Billion.

These terrorists who happen to be Muslims maybe associated with some terrorist organizations which are led by wicked people trying to achieve some personal or political ends using the religion as a tool to gather mass support. Most of the terrorists are young, foolish and brainwashed into thinking they are doing something good as they lack knowledge of Islamic religion.

There was a link provided which showed many terrorists attacks carried out by ISIS. Again terrorist organizations like ISIS, Al Qaeda etc. are in reality anti-Islamic and all leading scholars and intellectuals of Islam have denounced /condemned such groups.
