Let’s talk history. For those Muslims who know the truth but keep hiding behind denial, saying every extremist who terrorises people “is not a real Muslim”, let’s talk about Mohammed Yusuf the founder of Boko Haram. This did not start with bombs. It started with sermons. It started in mosques. It started with young people sitting on the ground listening to a man who spoke the language of religion, quoted the Quran, and claimed he was defending Islam from corruption and Western influence. People called him a scholar. People defended him. People said he was only preaching the truth. Mohammed Yusuf did not introduce himself as a terrorist. He presented himself as a reformer. He built followers for years before the violence exploded. And when some warned that his teachings were extreme, many Muslims said, “Leave him, he is just calling people back to Islam.” That is how denial works. By the time the guns came out and the killings started, the foundation had already been laid with religious slogans, emotional speeches, and a black and white version of faith that divided the world into pure believers and enemies. When it finally turned into open terror, the same community that once defended the message suddenly said, “He is not Muslim.” Be honest. He claimed Islam. He quoted Islamic texts. He convinced people he was fighting for Islam. Pretending otherwise is not protecting the religion. It is protecting your comfort. If we cannot admit that extremists grow from within our own communities, misuse our own language, and recruit from our own mosques, then we are not serious about stopping them. Denial is not piety. It is cowardice dressed up as loyalty to Islam.
