Explanation & Answer

Thank you for the opportunity to help you with your question!

The Islamic religion and Muslims in general are linked with terrorism activities.

To understand Islam’s stance on terrorism, one must refer to its original sources, the Quran and the teachings of Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him,which are explicit in their prohibition of any form of injustice including that of wanton violence which seeks to instill fear, injury or death to civilians. The muslims misinterpret the quran by being radicalized.

Muslims should practice the teachings of the quran and there will be no conflict between them and the Westerners.

Please let me know if you need any clarification. I'm always happy to answer your questions.
