The world is facing a great dilemma due to despicable, inhumane and
barbaric acts of terrorism, indiscriminate killings, warfare,
anarchy, disorder and suicide bombings over the past two decades.
It is not only destroying the peace of any specific region, group
or country but has become a major threat to world peace. Young
People and Students living in various western countries who do not
have conceptual clarity regarding Islam are wrongly considering
terrorism and indiscriminate killing to be Jihad and are being
drawn towards it.A further disturbing issue with regards to this is
that the terrorists declare their evil goals to be part of the
Islamic concept of Jihad. Furthermore they speak of enforcing the
Islamic Shariah according to their extremist and terrorist
ideology. They call for the re-establishment of the Caliphate as
part of their ideology; and they use the Islamic terminologies and
concepts of Fiqh (Islamic Jurisprudence) to legally justify their
claims. By quoting the Qur'an, hadith and texts from the books of
Islamic Law out of context, they influence common Muslims who are
not acquainted with the true teachings of Islam, especially
youngsters.There is a need to provide authentic, comprehensive
material against extremism to all people, from every walk of life,
according to their needs, so that the conceptual and ideological
confusions which may lead to terrorism can be eliminated. The
Islamic Curriculum on Peace and Counter-Terrorism was prepared for
this purpose. This curriculum has 3 books and is part of the Peace
Education Programme. It aims to provide resources from the Holy
Qur'an, Hadith and authoritative books to provide a comprehensive
ideological and theological background to all the key areas that
are utilised to brainwash youngsters.The Islamic Curriculum on
Peace and Counter-Terrorism has been compiled under the supervision
and guidance of Shaykh-ul-Islam Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri - who is
the author of the Fatwa on Terrorism and Suicide Bombings.
