The Khawarij can be considered as one of the extremist groups of the political history of Islam who shed the blood of their Muslim brethrens in the early centuries of Islamic history with ideological motifs, carrying out many violent acts in various parts of the Islamic world. Comparing the actions of the Khawarij, which have been mostly based on extreme violence, retrogressive ideas and desired interpretations, contemporary Salafist groups, especially Daesh, we can achieve extensive viewpoints and behaviors linking these two. In other words, Daesh is the result of Takfiri-Wahhabi ideas and decrees of those who consider killing Muslims not only permissible, but also obligatory and their ideas form a good groundwork for continuing Islamophobia in some western countries. In this article, a descriptive-analytical method will be used to study the commonalities between the two ideas of foreign and Salafist-Takfiri from intellectual, methodological and behavioral aspects, regardless of the vast time difference between the two.
 

Keywords: Khawarij, Salafist Groups, Takfiri, Extermism, Daesh.
