Abstract
Terrorist acts and the violent actions, and the most devastating of them in recent years have been increased. Especially after the attacks of September 11, terrorism as a violent action has been a global matter in whole world. This fact has sparked a fundamental debate both in the West and within the Muslim world regarding the link between these acts and the teachings of religions, especially of Islam. Although there is a relationship between religion and violence, terrorism is not the religious phenomenon nor is especially the Islamic, but it is a multidimensional phenomenon, and has an additional religious dimension. The non-religious etiologies of this phenomenon include social, political, economic and cultural causes, i.e. alienation, poverty, global inequalities, and rebellion against Western or global cultural colonialism
