TESTIMONY
??S?????S???? ??d?
This research is really from the writer own work and not containing any plagiary from previous researchers. As the writer knows, it is the first research that presents Fitna film (2008) as the object of the research. This film has not ever been used before by the previous researchers of the students of UMS.
Although the theoretical approach that the current researcher uses is a behaviorist approach in which it must also be used by several previous researchers, the writer keeps working independently without any plagiary from previous researchers who also used that approach. The writer just views on it to relate to this research what it is like and without plagiarizing. So, the writer carries out the research independently, searching the data, and the data approach to solve what the writer questions as the problems of the study.

MOTTO
THE PERFECT RELIGION IS ONLY ISLAM
?? ?? ??? T???????? ? ????? ????O???? ????????? ???O?? ?????
TERRORISM IS NOT FROM ISLAMIC PRINCIPLES
THE MUSLIMS WHO HAVE WRONG IDEOLOGY SUCH TERRORISM ARE
BECAUSE THEY MISUNDERSTAND THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD’S WAYS
OR JUST THINKING WHAT THEY ARGUE IS TRUE IN OTHER WORD
THINKING WITH THEIR PASSION
THE BEST WORDS ARE ALLAH’S (QUR’AN)
THE BEST WAYS ARE MUHAMMAD’S (SUNNAH)
