Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine the role of education and school in the fight against
terrorism and extremism and to limit the spread of this phenomenon among students. Terrorism
has become a global phenomenon that is not correlating to any particular region, culture,
community or religious or ethnic group. The researcher believes that the event of terrorism and
extremism is related to several factors, including social, cultural, political and artistic. Where the
twentieth century and beyond, witnessed a marked increase in terrorist operations and
extremism. Many writers, thinkers, and politicians believe that history is a milestone in the
history of terrorism and extremist ideas and a definite shift in the nature and patterns of planning
and methods of committing terrorist acts. Terrorism not only existed in Western countries but
extended to all Arab states. All of these things reflect an extremist ideology among young people
who believe illegal Fatwas of intellectual symbols outside the teachings of the Islamic religion,
calling for tolerance and acceptance of the other. Since security is no longer the responsibility of
security men alone, safety is the responsibility of all members of society and all institutions of
society must share it. The school is the second social center after the family, where students draw
social and cultural values in society to create a conscious generation, the community loses the
foundations of defense against crime. Therefore, the role of security institutions in the fight
against terrorism and extremism is necessary at present, and for this reason, the purpose of the
school is a sacrifice required in building the culture of society and the leading importance in the
security dimension. The current research is an attempt to highlight the role of the school in
combating terrorism and extremism in all its modern forms that threaten all members of society
in their homes and places of work and this weakens their role and responsibilities towards
serving their country.
