Abstract
The study aimed to explain the concept of violence in the political intellect of extremist Islamic groups in the Arab world, evaluating the intellectual perspective extremist groups manifest from, verifying the hypothesis the study is built on: extremism is a manifestation of social maladjustment, it reflects the existence of a large gap in the deviation of values and standards from the natural and average level, as it does not result from moderation in the application of provisions and rules , as it in fact reflect the excesses and exaggeration in the political thought. As the study deals with violence in the ideology in the extremist groups , therefore the appropriate method for the study is the mythology of group analysis, as this approach depends on the study of extremist groups of violence in their political thought. The study concluded that some of the extremist groups and movements, uses violence as a tool to reach political, social or cultural change . This raises some questions about the extent to which this tool is effective in achieving the desired goal , and on the effectiveness of this mean in achieving that goal on the long term, and the possible adverse effect of violence that causes great harm, if it doesn't eliminate the goal , since the principle of purpose justifies the mean, is a principle based on argument that seeks to seize opportunities to achieve the goals by any means, even if they contradicts the desired goal.
