Description: In The Minds of Extremists by Mahmood Yoosuf Abdulla Jihad has become a word associated with terror, blood, and tragedy. Yet its original meaning refers to a much more internal war against temptation to commit sin and evil deeds. How did this definition become so external and literally a war? This book explains how and why jihadist militancy and extremism have become so irrevocably linked today. In the Minds of Extremists analyzes how this mentality formed, how it functions, and why it continues to grow in developed countries. Looking to past and present political and religious climates, Dr. Mahmood Yoosuf Abdulla seeks to clarify how they related to and influenced the growth of extremism. Turning to examine the human rights violations and genocides that have spread through countries that became obsessed with the divine authority of their leaders, the book speaks to how such political climates heralded the rising popularity of intolerant ideologies. In understanding the core and mindset of extremism, we can understand what it means for the global community, and we can learn from the past in an effort to prevent it from being repeated in the future.
