Osama Bin Laden has become a considerable moral challenge for the Muslims. The most important question is raised because of the suspected connection of Osama Bin Laden with the people responsible for 9/11 attacks and this question is about the relationship between terrorism and Islam. If he is on the wrong side of the law, then he implicates the Islamic beliefs by making use of them as an inspiration and justification for all his actions. If he is not guilty, then why is he a big hero? If he is not blameworthy of the attacks on America and an embassy terror campaigns, then why is he admired by some Muslims?
Osama Bin Laden has become an emblem of empowerment and resistance to a group of people that is starved of freedom and chances for self government. He is considered to be an idol for the group of people which has long got accustomed to breathing with an awe inspiring sense of defenselessness and vulnerability. People use to think that Osama Bin Laden is a promise that even the hopeless and the weak can get his own back. It means that his charm is totally reliant upon the acceptance of Muslims that without any doubt, he is responsible for the attacks against the United States, irrespective of the availability of all the evidences. His popularity and his heroism in the whole Muslim world is a condemnation of him as a rebel or a terrorist and his followers as the followers of terrorism.
However Muslims, without the uncertainties, have condemned the 9/11 attacks as ethically indefensible and in the wrong. All Muslims have the same opinion that terrorism is unpardonable and indefensible and the person responsible for it must be punished under the law. Osama has denied any connection with the attacks of September 11th and a number of Muslims consider that in actuality, he is above suspicion and are criticizing the American establishment that it is not providing any convincing proof against Osama Bin Laden earlier than the launching of war against Afghanistan.
Bin Laden is not an Islamic hero but an enemy of Islam. He has actually attacked the ethical foundation of Muslim life by venerating terrorism. Only because of him Islam is associated with violence and Muslims with a terror. He must be treated as an enemy of Muslims and Islam. So there is a need to condemn Osama Bin Laden for what he has done.
