Islamic controversies often arise from differing interpretations of the Quran and Hadith, the two primary sources of Islamic teachings. Issues such as the role of women, the concept of jihad, and the treatment of non-Muslims can lead to debates among scholars and followers. These discussions can sometimes escalate into broader societal conflicts, especially when influenced by political or cultural factors. Another area of contention is the relationship between Islam and terrorism. While the vast majority of Muslims condemn violence, extremist groups have used Islamic rhetoric to justify their actions. This has led to misunderstandings and stereotypes about the faith, prompting many Muslim leaders to advocate for a clearer distinction between their beliefs and the actions of a minority.
