INTRODUCTION
1.1       Background of the Study
The English word, martyr, derives from the Greek word for wit— ness, martys. This finds a semantic parallel in the Arabic term for martyr, shahid. 3°While shahid is a common qur’anic term, in the Qur’an it almost always means witness in the sense of one who ob serves or who attests and can furnish proof In post qur’anic religious literature the term is quite common as a designation for martyr; but it rarely corresponds to that specific meaning in the Qur’ari itself 3’ and is not attested as such in pre—Islamic literature.
Religion is the mother of war. Conflicts involving religion are among the most intractable of human disputes.

Muslims seem to be in great turmoil and despair, deeply troubled by the perceived marginalization and demonization of Islamic ideas and norms in Western discourse and by the Arab world's glaring failure to achieve significant progress in scientific, technological, and political realms.4 There is also deep, widespread anger among Muslims over the subordination, humiliation, and physical subjugation of certain Muslim communities, especially the Palestinian people in the West Bank and Gaza, known today as the Occupied Territories.5
