1. Introduction: Framing the Debate Around Islamic Theology, Radicalisation and Violent Extremism -- 2. Causes of Radicalisation: Theological Arguments as the Ultimate Trigger -- 3. Refuting the Extremist Interpretations of the Text and the Prophetic Traditions: The Case Chapter -- 4. Social Construction of Jihad and Human Dignity in the Language of ISIS -- 5. Orientalism and Anti-Orientalism: Epistemological Approaches to Islam and Violence -- 6. Political and Social Changes in the Muslim World with Special Reference to Development, Knowledge and Freedom Deficits -- 7. Islamism, Radicalisation and Violent Extremism: Perspectives of Young Muslim Australians -- 8. Understanding Key Themes in the ISIS Narrative: An Examination of Dabiq Magazine -- 9. Potential Impact of the AKP’s Unofficial Political Islamic Law on the Radicalisation of the Turkish Muslim Youth in the West -- 10. Said Nursi’s Non-Violent Social Activism as a Refutation and Response to the Re-Emergent Neo-Kharijite Sect in Islam -- 11. Pro-Active Religious Rehabilitation for the Prevention of Radicalism and Violent Extremism.

This edited volume discusses critically discursive claims about the theological foundations connecting Islam to certain manifestations of violent extremism. Such claims and associated debates become even more polarizing when images of violent acts of terrorism performed in the name of Islam circulate in the global media. The authors argue that the visibility of such mediated violent extremism, in particular since the emergence of ISIS, has created a major political and security challenge not only to the world but also to the global Muslim community. This is particularly true in relation to the way Islam is being understood and characterized in the modern world. Existing studies on radicalization generally deal with causes and strategies to address violent extremism. The book will appeal to scholars, researchers and students in political science, Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies.
