MOSCOW: The suspected involvement of converts to Islam in Russian suicide bombings points to the growing reach of jihadists far beyond the Muslim provinces of Chechnya and Dagestan, where insurgency and separatism have simmered for two decades.
Russian news media say the authorities suspect an ethnic-Russian convert to Islam may have been behind one of the two suicide bombings that killed a total of 34 people in the past two days in Volgograd, a southern Russian city.

“Many new converts adopt a fundamentalist form of Islam that often puts them in conflict with their families and makes them more prone to “radicalisation”. This phenomenon needs a deep study. If at all some one has to covert to Islam why he or she opts for fundamentalist form of Islam. After all what attractions are offered by these fundamentalists which lure the innocents to commit atrocities against humanity. One reason could be these new converts never got the chance to read the beautiful and real teachings of Islam. As such it is the responsibility of the media to highlight the true teachings of Islam enabling ordinary people to educate themselves specially about use of force against fellow beings. Ahmadiyya Muslim Community is considered to be at the fore front for such interpretations and there is a need to spread the Ahmadiyya interpretation of Jihad from real Islamic point of view.
