Abstract EN
In the name of Islam, extremist groups seek to promote the idea that Islam is a religion of violence and blood.
They attribute those false claims and their misguided narrative to the Quran.
Their propaganda particularly targets the youth, to spread their poison, which prevents them from understanding the Quran and thinking about its verses.
The current study follows the descriptive analytical methodology to correct the misinterpretations of some verses of the Holy Quran by one of the extremist groups (ISIS), which have utilized Quranic verses that it thinks serve its goals and plans.
The study is divided into two sections: The first one investigates texts that have been changed and misinterpreted.
They are analysed and the parts that have been changed and misinterpreted are highlighted.
This is done by referring to the exegetic works of Ibn Kathir, Alsa’di, and Altahir ibn Ashour.
The second section sheds light on Saudi Arabia’s efforts to tackle extremist ideology and studies the effect those efforts have had on increasing ideological awareness, by measuring the increase in ideological awareness, especially among the youth as they are the age group targeted by extremist preachers.
To achieve this goal, a questionnaire consisting of seven questions was designed and distributed to the study sample, which consisted of youth aged from 18 – 30.
The results indicated the following: The verses were truncated, and their correct nterpretations were changed to promote the group’s propaganda, recruit people, call them to join it, and justify violence and terror.
Evidently, Saudi Arabia has made great efforts to spread ideological awareness and educate society, especially the youth, about extremism.
That is evident from the responses provided by the study population.
The following precautions were taken to stop terrorism: Tightening electronic surveillance, holding accountable those spreading and promoting terrorism, launching awareness campaigns to propagate the correct Islam and enhance tolerance and moderation, and establishing centres to rehabilitate victims of extremism, including the Munasaha Centre.
In conclusion, the study recommends expanding the scope of the research by investigating other Quranic verses that were employed by extremists to promote terrorism and by clarifying their misinterpretations.
Also, to avoid any misinterpretation, Muslims should read the Quran, contemplate its verses, and understand their explanation by relying on trustworthy exegesis of the Quran, such as those whose works we relied upon in this study.
