Allah, the Most Merciful, said:
“And do not kill those souls whom Allah has prohibited unless justified by a due legal right” (Surah Al-An’am 6:151)
The Prophet of Muhammad (SAW) said, in an authentic hadeeth by Imam al-Bukhari,
“Whoever kills a non-Muslim who has an agreement with the Muslims then he will not smell the fragrance of Paradise”
In the other authentic hadeets by al-Bukhari, The Prophet of Muhammad (SAW) also said,
“A true Muslim, is that the one from whose tongue and hand Muslims are safe”
It is very clear that Islam give a warning against every acts of terrorism. And we surely understand, if the acts of terrorism are committed by a Muslim, meaning that they have violated Islamic rule within the Qur’an and Sunnah. Only people who love peace can be called as a truly Muslim.
O my noble brothers,
According to the United Stated (US) National Counter-Terrorism Center, Al-Qaeda kills over seven times more Muslims than non-Muslims. According to the United Nation’s report, Muslims are the largest victims of ISIS. According to the US State Department, Muslims are also the largest victims of terrorism in general. So, the only relationship between Islam and terrorism is Islam is the most victims of it.
Finally, this is the true Islam that I can explain to you today. Far away from the image raised by the media, the message of Islam actually offers a peace for the whole of mankind, against any forms of terrorism acts. All humans, whatever their religion, are invited to come and discover the peaceful message of Islam.
