Islamic militancy refers to the use of violence and extremism by certain groups who claim to act in the name of Islam. These groups often interpret Islamic teachings in a way that justifies their actions, which can include terrorism, armed conflict, and other forms of violence. Their goals may vary, but they often seek to establish a political system based on their interpretation of Sharia law. Many militant groups, such as Al-Qaeda and ISIS, have gained international attention for their violent actions and recruitment strategies. These groups often exploit social, political, and economic grievances to attract followers and justify their violent methods. The global community continues to address the challenges posed by Islamic militancy through various counter-terrorism efforts.
