Largest Muslim Group in World Admits "Extremism Originates in Islamic Teaching""To be able to combat the global jihadi movement, world leaders and the general public must recognize the fact that extremism originates from Islamic teachings." -Yahya Staquf
His admission reinforced former Pope Benedict's statement that had strained the relationship between Muslims and the Vatican when he said that Islam is not a religion of peace. At the international meeting of moderate Islamic leaders in Jakarta, the Indonesia-based organization strongly condemned their fellow Muslims particularly the Islamic State (ISIS) and the al-Qaeda. "We keep on denying the source of the problem, namely some ailments within Islam itself," Staquf said, adding that bad elements of Islam are indeed part of the extremism problem. Participants of the conference praised the group's admission of some ailments within Islam, and urged Muslims leaders to institute modifications into their laws to make it in consonance with the modern world. Magnus Ranstorp, a counterterrorism expert from Sweden, said these issues have to be resolved by among the Muslims themselves with no intercession from the West. "I don't see any other Muslim leaders coming to Europe standing up like a tower and saying, 'Look, we are prepared to take this on,'" he said.
