The So-Called Islamic State–Khorasan Province (ISKP)

ISIS: A Group Born from the Shadows of Intelligence Agencies

The New Transformations and the Future of the Middle East

The Battles of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH): Lessons for Humanity | Part 22

The group identifying itself as the “Islamic State” (ISIS) emerged in its place of origin, launching a campaign of terror and fear that it sustained for a period. However, over the years, it encountered a range of formidable local and international challenges that deeply unsettled its organizational structure, disrupted its operations, and undermined its foundational stability.

Driven by destructive ambitions and dark ideological motives, ISIS has long sought to extend its influence beyond its original strongholds. In pursuit of these aims, it expanded its operations to other regions of the Islamic world, where it propagated a poisonous ideology—one inherently destructive, steeped in corruption, and entirely disconnected from the true teachings of Islam.

Rather than promoting the noble values and moral principles of Islam, ISIS deliberately attempted to instill aversion toward religion. It fueled toxic narratives that encouraged apostasy and spiritual alienation, seeking to sow hostility toward divine guidance in people’s hearts. The group’s doctrine is so profoundly at odds with the spirit of Islam that any sincere inquiry into its ideology inevitably reveals its complete incompatibility with Islamic thought and values.

The so-called “Islamic State Khorasan Province” (ISKP) is a branch of ISIS linked to its central leadership in Iraq and Syria. This offshoot was created with the specific objective of destabilizing Afghanistan by sowing chaos and fear under the guise of jihad, thereby discrediting the noble concept of Islamic struggle in the public eye.

Infamous for its reliance on fear as a tactic, ISIS has attempted to carve out zones of influence in Afghanistan and other Islamic countries. In certain areas, it has recruited local collaborators and organized clandestine militant cells. Nevertheless, despite its strategic planning and operational efforts, the group has faced widespread rejection across the Islamic world, where most nations and communities have refused to accept its extremist ideology—and remain resolute in doing so.

Why Does ISIS Establish Branches?

Every expansionist movement or ideology seeking global reach must adapt to local contexts by forming branches, adopting varied names, and assuming different forms. ISIS, which has long promoted doctrines diametrically opposed to Islamic values, has found it necessary to tailor its messaging to different regions. Under the label “ISIS-Khorasan,” it introduced its ideology into Afghanistan—a land historically regarded as a cradle of mujahideen movements and a beacon of hope for the broader Muslim Ummah.

The Politics of Fear

The large-scale spread of fear is an age-old political and military tactic employed by both regional and global powers. In today’s geopolitical climate, where military strength often defines political relevance, the expansion of influence is seen as a critical objective. ISIS seeks to exploit unrest, division, and instability to create conditions favorable to its spread. While this strategy has granted it a limited and temporary success, history consistently demonstrates that such ideologies—though they may rise swiftly—are ultimately doomed to fail.

Why Target Afghanistan?

Afghanistan is not merely a symbolic land of resistance—it is a proven land where empires have faltered and invaders have been decisively defeated. It has produced devout mujahideen, resilient communities, and deeply rooted Islamic movements that have consistently resisted foreign domination. ISIS views this nation not just as a target, but as a critical strategic prize. They believe that if they can bring this steadfast nation under control, they could more effectively impose their extremist agenda across the region.

In both practical and geopolitical terms, Afghanistan occupies a strategically vital position. It has long attracted the attention of global and regional powers due to its unique location and the strong principles of its people. ISIS is acutely aware that bringing Afghanistan under its control would mark a significant and historic victory—one that would serve its broader agenda of regional destabilization and ideological expansion.

Yet, despite these aspirations, Afghanistan’s proud legacy of resistance and its deeply rooted Islamic identity continue to stand as formidable barriers to ISIS’s goals.
