The symposium, which is due to issue its final communique, said no party had to give a definition to terrorism.
It stressed that Islam has got no link with terrorism.
It warned that terrorism has been acting now as a dangerous challenge to the Islamic world.
It stated that Islamic countries must confront terrorism through coordination and active cooperation.
On the other hand, scholars of the three heavenly-revealed religions called for renouncing the idea of the inevitable conflict amongst civilizations.
They called upon the international community to provide all political, economic, human aids necessary for reconstructing Afghanistan.
This came within the proceedings of a two-day conference held in Brussels.
The conference, called to be held by the European commission Chairman, Romano Prodi, stressed the necessity of tackling reasons of regional tense, particularly on the developing world, noting that religions have been playing a constructive role in inter-civilization dialogue.
