{{attention}}
'''Militant Islam''' is a contentious term, often used by Western political commentators to describe the ideologies of groups viewed as participating in [[Islamic terrorism]]. In fact, both these two terms share many of the same shortcomings. [[Muslims]] opposed to violent political agitation, and especially [[liberal movements within Islam]], find their implicit association of [[Islam]] with militancy and aggression to be unacceptable. However, the term has been used so widely in the print and broadcast media that some elaboration of it is necessary.
