Global Jihadism refers to a militant ideology that seeks to establish a global Islamic state governed by strict interpretations of Islamic law, or Sharia. This movement often promotes violent actions against perceived enemies of Islam, including Western nations and secular governments in Muslim-majority countries. The term is commonly associated with various extremist groups, such as Al-Qaeda and ISIS, which have carried out terrorist attacks worldwide. These organizations recruit individuals through propaganda, exploiting political grievances and social injustices to justify their actions and expand their influence across different regions.
