violent extremism
The founder's words and actions are normative, not extreme; they define and exemplify the institution.- We shall cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve
- I will cast terror into the hearts of those who have disbelieved, so strike them over the necks, and smite over all their fingers and toes
- So if you gain the mastery over them in war, punish them severely in order to disperse those who are behind them, so that they may learn a lesson.
- so as to strike fear
- use them to frighten off
- so as to strike terror
- strike terror
- to threaten the enemy of Allâh and your enemy, and others besides whom, you may not know but whom Allâh does know
- Allâh brought them down from their forts and cast terror into their hearts, (so that) a group (of them) you killed, and a group (of them) you made captives
- terrify therewith
- to strike terror into
- Allâh brought them down from their forts and cast terror into their hearts, (so that) a group (of them) you killed, and a group (of them) you made captives
- He cast terror into their hearts
- Verily, you (believers in the Oneness of Allâh - Islâmic Monotheism) are more awful as a fear in their (Jews of Banî An-Nadîr) breasts than Allâh.
- you strike more terror in their hearts
- cause of terror
- You are a greater source of terror
- Bukhari Volume 1, Book 7, Number 331:
Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah:
The Prophet said, "I have been given five things which were not given to any one else before me.
1. Allah made me victorious by awe, (by His frightening my enemies) for a distance of one month's journey.
2. The earth has been made for me (and for my followers) a place for praying and a thing to perform Tayammum, therefore anyone of my followers can pray wherever the time of a prayer is due.
3. The booty has been made Halal (lawful) for me yet it was not lawful for anyone else before me.
4. I have been given the right of intercession (on the Day of Resurrection).
5. Every Prophet used to be sent to his nation only but I have been sent to all mankind. - Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 220:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Apostle said, "I have been sent with the shortest expressions bearing the widest meanings, and I have been made victorious with terror (cast in the hearts of the enemy), and while I was sleeping, the keys of the treasures of the world were brought to me and put in my hand." Abu Huraira added: Allah's Apostle has left the world and now you, people, are bringing out those treasures (i.e. the Prophet did not benefit by them).
Inflicting terror is about weakening our ability and will to mount an effective resistance. Here is how Moe did it.
- Moe terrified his victims by murder and rapine, building a well
deserved reputation for barbarism.
- He sent assassins to murder Kab Ashraf & Asma bint Marwan.
For the disgusting details, turn to Ishaq's Sira, I reproduce only the
conclusions here.
- "Our attack upon God's enemy cast terror among the Jews, and there was no Jew in Medina who did not fear far his rife." 368
- The day after Bint Marwan was killed the men of B.Khatma became Muslims because they saw the power of Islam. 676
- Here is a sample of poetry recited by one of Moe's companions quoted by Ishaq on page 409. It illustrates how Moe built his reputation.
- We
made liquid to run from your arses
Like ,he ordure of camels that have eaten 'asal.
when you took to your heels in the pass
and fled like sheep one behind the other;
When we attacked you boldly
and drove you you the bottom of the mountain
with companies like vast objects (?) in the plains
whoever meets them is terrified.
The pass was too narrow for us when we traversed it
And we filled its heights and depths
With men you cannot equal
Strengthened by Gabriel's help who came down
We conquered at Badr by piety,
Obeying God and believing the apostles.
We killed all their chiefs
And we killed every long robed noble.
