Abstract
One of the greatest security challenges that can face any society is terrorism. Terrorist attacks can have devastating effects on the development and progress of a country that experiences them. The innocent citizens are victims while public and private facilities become targets. Once a country experiences security challenges, its economy will be drastically affected and its image will be tarnished because foreigners will be less willing to invest in the economy of such a country and it will be avoided as it will be tagged as a red zone for tourism. Combating terrorism creates a setback because the country will lose both human and capital resources in the course. The purpose of this study is to examine the various theories of terrorism in relationship with the nefarious activities of various terrorist groups in Nigeria and the factors that led to their emergence. The study focuses on how the Sunnah approaches can be applied to proffer solutions to curb the menace of these terrorist groups.
