Abstract:   (4904 Views)
The roots of contemporary Takfiri and Salafi`s thought may be found in Khawarej thoughts, beliefs and moral and spiritual manner of life in Alawi age. The paper, comparing contemporary Salafis and Khawarej in an ethical approach, has studied and assessed their views with the norms in virtue ethics in order to prepare the ground for human societies to make distinction between this group and true Muslims. Other fields of religious studies that study their beliefs criticaly, would also show their inner and mental tendencies and manner of life and their distortion from real Islamic beliefs. As shown in the paper, this converted group`s main remarked resemblance with Khawarej lies in misunderstanding, superficiality, relating disbelief to others and using violation to others. In the paper, with reliance on library sources, their distortion has been focused on critically.
Keywords: Takfir`s Moral, Khawarej Thought, Ethics of War, Salafist Thought, Salafist Ethics.
