'''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 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(contracted; show full)

''Certain of these movements are often accused of being primarily motivated by [[terrorism]] as a tactic.  For discussion of this accusation see the article on the term [[Islamism]] which is employed by the accusers who reject the rationale of Islam itself.  No neutral list can be compiled, so we do not attempt it here.''
