If anyone is interested, the term for the return to the foundations of a belief, in Regional Geography, is religious revivalism. In the case of Islam many westerners use fundamentalism but muslims themselves prefer revivalism.

Religions all have their own extremists. If you take a look at the third largest religion(Hinduism) you have the Hinduvistas. Religions like people shouldn’t be judged just on their fringes. However, sometimes religious movements do need to be censured for their actions but targeting the religion as a whole is a foolish and mostly counterproductive exercise.
As for my personal interactions… my pharmicist is Muslim so I guess I trust him not to poison me.
