The Islamic State (IS) has spread terror worldwide over the past decades by using religion as a weapon and violently promoting the concept of the ""caliphate."" In ""In the Name of Allah: How ISIS Drenched Faith in Blood,"" the book sheds light on the emergence, structure, and ideology of IS, illustrating how a radical interpretation of Islam led to violence, destruction, and global terror. The reader is guided step by step through the complexity and development of the Islamic State. Starting with the historical rise of radical Islamism to the modern terror strategies of ISIS, the religious, political, and social factors that enabled the rise of these extremists are analyzed. The background of fighter recruitment and the role of women and children in IS are also examined in detail. This academic book not only explores the mechanisms of ISIS takeover and the tactics used to spread its ideology, but also addresses the global threat it posed, which continues to this day. Topics such as the role of regional powers, military interventions by the US and Russia, and the complex role of the media in reporting on terrorism are discussed. With a detailed focus on the Yazidi victims, the role of child soldiers, and the financing of terror, this work paints a comprehensive picture of IS and its global entanglements. It also addresses the impact on Islamic communities worldwide and the challenges of deradicalizing ISIS returnees. ""In the Name of Allah"" is aimed at those seeking an in-depth understanding of the Islamic State and the complex geopolitical and ideological connections involved. Through comprehensive analyses, case studies, and a critical look at the future of global jihadism, this book provides important insights into the terrorism of our time.
