One of the common points of these movements in their formation is the role of new electronic and communicative media, namely satellite and virtual environments such as social networks, phone messages and the like. In the light of new media and social networks, according to Castells, horizontal communication takes place between different sectors of society. "Power flows" surpass on "the flows of power" and citizens by using virtual social networks can destroy media monopolies. Although these new media can not be considered as the main reasons of revolution, it is obvious that they are known as the crucial factors in the occurance of the revolutions.Virtual media and social networks introduced themselves as a powerful alternative for other media in the triple relation of audience, media, and society, the power that is increasing continiously.

They attempt to react to modernity oriented processes by their dogmatic interpretation that is far from any Intellectual Ijtihad from Sharia influenced by psychic background and their psychological structure. Daesh, as one of the branches of Salafi movements, attempts to justify its violence by radical interpretation of religious propositions. Their radical interpretation of the religion aside from being in the Sharia statements is the result of inflammatory psychological atmosphere and confusion in the face of the modern world. The present study aims, besides radical interpretations of religion, investigate the psychological factors that affect individuals’ tendency to Daesh group and its violence. The results of the study show that pressures of the modern world on dogmatic reading have been effective in terms of Sharia and tendency to behavioral violence for meeting suppressed needs.

The aim of this study was to investigate Imam Khomeini’s discourse of foreign policy in relation to national interests and security, and Islamic ideology on three levels, namely, ideology, strategy, and diplomacy.             The main point of departure in Imam Khomeini’s ideological approach was his political and social reading of Islam, i.e. “Political Islam”. Other elements and principles of foreign policy were shaped based on this especial approach. On the level of strategy, Islamic rationality, foreign and domestic threats, and the unification of the Islamic republic were the main focus of attention of national security in relation to foreign policy. In this view, the protection of the Islamic Republic was of primary importance. The next issue was the security of the Islamic world and the Muslims. On the level of diplomacy, and following the principle of Islamic pragmatism, the main focus of foreign policy was considered the national interests of the Islamic Republic. The other components of this approach included public and nationalist diplomacy, non-alignment, Islamicist world, and support of liberation movements. Imam Khomeini’s approach to foreign policy, based on the priority of national security and interests of Iran, showed the significance of Islamic rationality in his foreign policy and the integration of ideals and facts.

The event that was organized by al-Qaeda has linked terrorism with religion, especially Islam, and radical Islamic fundamentalist promote religious terrorists with their views and actions. In this regard, the most important intellectual figure was Sayed Qutb who had a direct impact on the performance and perspectives of al-Qaeda. This led to introducing Islam Doctrine by the West and its head America with a misunderstanding to promote religious terrorism. Shi'a was also charged with promoting the teachings of religious terrorism as one of the branches of Islam. In this article, in addition to reviewing the doctrines and views of radical Islamists and al-Qaeda organization that promotes the formation of negative attitude of the West towards Islam, the Shiite political jurisprudence in relation to religious terrorism was examined. Therefore, the main concern of this paper is “what is the Shiite political jurisprudence perspective towards religious terrorism?” And “does the Doctrine of Shia political jurisprudence confirm the principles of religious terrorism?”  The research hypothesis is that in the Doctrine of Shiite political jurisprudence, there are principles that reject religious terrorism and declare it illegal. Also, in contemporary era, we are witnessing the expansion of Muslims’ martyrdom operations to which the study of Shiite political jurisprudence is critical because Western perspectives see this as suicide and terrorism.  }, Keywords = { Religious Terrorism, Radical Religious Fundamentalism, Sayyed Qutb, Al-Qaida, Shiite Political Jurisprudence, Martyrdom Operations.}, volume = {6}, Number = {4}, pages = {119-146}, publisher = {Islamic World Studies Association}, url = {http://priw.ir/article-1-384-en.html}, eprint = {http://priw.ir/article-1-384-en.pdf}, journal = {Quarterly Journal of Political Research in Islamic World}, issn = {2322-2980}, eissn = {2222}, year = {2017} } @article{ author = {}, title = {Analysis of the Origin of Jihad (Interpretive and Narrative Methodology) and its Role in the Phenomenon of Islam Phobia}, abstract ={Quran is a profound and profane Book that everyone benefits from it according to his scientific capacity.

The main purpose of the article is to study the origins and evidences of two perspectives of peace and war. The main element of this difference is laid in the Saif verse. The main assumption of the followers of jihad is the infallibility of the verse of Saif in all verses and amnesty. The main hypothesis of this article is that the extremist ideas of the verses of jihad make the face of Islam rough and now when discourse of the world resolves human conflicts through interaction, extreme ideas do not have a reasonable position. In the end, it is concluded that the verse of Saif is not abrogated amnesty verses and Islam is not violent and instead is mouthpiece to honest, rooted, and inclusive peace. Indeed, verses of jihad have more poems of defensive jihad not initiating one.

Given the differences between extremist groups and Islamic movements, the difference in their formation is of particular importance. Accordingly, the present study seeks to answer this question: “What are the features of the distinction between the bases of the formation of radical movements and the revolutionary movement in the Islamic world?” The authors believe that intellectual principles and sociological foundations of both are different and by using the environmental conditions, they seek to establish a new political identity based on Islamic principles. Extreme groups are the product of historical, geographic, and political conditions in the Muslim world, while revolutionary movements and reform movements have been shaped while interfacing external problems, especially colonialism and domestic problems. Findings of the research indicate that the two radical and revolutionary groups, in addition to responding to the common problems of Islamic societies, are in contrast with two different types of political thinking and behavior.
