European Muslim Union Press Decleration: Muslims ask themselves if the present-day terrorism is discrediting Islam. The answer is no. Terrorism may discredit certain Muslims, but not Islam which neither justifies terrorism or suicidal attacks.” There might well exist, wrote Rieger, a “terrorism committed by a Muslim” but no “Islamic terrorism.” It is necessary to state again – and even to document – that in the face of these criminal gangs and their behavior – there is a global, unified rejection of the IS which transcends any differences in the traditional teachings and schools of thought. Muslim scholars and leaders worldwide have condemned the movement, rejected its claim to leadership and deconstructed their flawed teaching and methodology. This has been done by internationally known scholars in the Muslim world but also by those living in the Western world.
