Seeking the Roots of Terrorism: An Islamic Traditional Perspective / The Journal of Religion and Popular Culture, Vol X, Summer '05

"Analyzes the associational relationship between Islam and terrorism as embedded in the current popular culture. Two questions are examined: (a) whether from a historical and political perspective current organizations that are terror threats and Bin Laden are natural outgrowths of the Islamic tradition; (b) whether the Muslim popular tradition has historically interpreted some Qur'anic terms such as Jihad and Kuffar 'allegedly infidels' to promote hate and violence against non-Muslims."
