Does Isis’s Way of Propaganda make it a Part of Global Islamophobia?

In the wake of the terrorist attacks on Twin Towers in the United States of America on 11 September 2001, a new question arose all over the world: “Does Islamic religion legalize or foster the terror?”. This is because of the organization that carried out the horrible terrorist attack in question was a radical Islamic structure known as Al-Qaida.

In this context, it seems that it has inflamed Islamophobia in the subconscious of the world public opinion. It should be noted at this point that the method of literature review was used to collect data as regards the issue. In the last section of the work, a scientific survey which aimed to measure how much ISIS’s propaganda techniques based on its well-known actions and executions have been effective on the image of Islamic religion and Muslims was applied in the city centre of Konya that is known as the most religious city in Turkey between 25 December 2015 and 18 January 2016. Finally, the available data that had been collected through the survey at issue were evaluated and analysed one by one in terms of internationally acknowledged survey criteria called SPSS
