[blue] A suicide mission - carried out in a covert fashion - to disrupt the civic life and to terrorize a society can by no means be considered as allowed.

The Islamic term 'Jihad' has generally been misused in our present times to imply 'killing the opponent using any means, whatsoever'. This is the reason why in the present times, many terrorist activities are carried out in the name of 'Jihad'. 
However, this implication of the term 'Jihad' is far from being correct.

'Jihad', on the contrary, is governed by strict laws and rules - derived from the Qur'an and the teachings ascribed to the Prophet (pbuh). For instance, 'Jihad', according to the Qur'an and the teachings ascribed to the Prophet (pbuh) - after the companions of the Prophet (pbuh) - is a declared warfare against injustice and oppression carried out by an organized Muslim state.

Keeping the foregoing definition of 'Jihad' in mind, it can safely be said that no terrorist activities can fall within the ambit of 'Jihad', even if such an activity is sponsored and silently backed by an organized state.[/blue][/quote]
