ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Muslim attitudes towards terrorism

So, you know how sometimes bad people do bad things and hurt other people? Well, some people who call themselves Muslims may do bad things and hurt others, but not all Muslims believe that this is okay.

In fact, most Muslims think that hurting innocent people is really, really wrong. Muslims believe that we should try to live in peace with everyone, no matter what religion or culture they come from.

Some Muslims who do bad things may think they are doing what is right, but this is not what most Muslims believe. They believe that it is important to treat others with kindness and respect, and to help those in need.

So, just like some people of different religions or nationalities may do bad things, it does not represent everyone who believes the same thing. Most Muslims believe in peace and kindness towards others.
