Nowadays so much is happening in our country. After 11th September many people are taking the term of Jihad in a very wrong way. Jihad in Islamic tradition is that of an internal spiritual struggle, focused on individual purification and the promotion of social justice and human rights. In some extreme sectors, this concept has been twisted to justify politically motivated acts of violence. Jihad is one of the most misunderstood and abused aspects of Islam. Some extremist Muslims exploit the concept of Jihad for their own political objectives. Many non-Muslims misinterpret it to discredit Islam and Muslims. Every religion goes through tough time b/c of its extremist followers. Islam is not a violent religion some of its followers are doing violent acts.
Just thought I'd throw that out there for those who need enlightment. 3nodding

Well said brother, well Jihad is an Arabic word which basically means to strive to struggle. No where in the Qur'an the term "holy war" is used as often used in the media. Jihad has been misrepresented in the media. And unfortunately its not only non muslims there are even some Muslims who do not understand the correct meaning of Jihad. Whenever we Muslims try to overcome our evil desires and try to do what Allah (God Almighty) has Commanded and Willed for us to do, that is Jihaad, one of the best Jihaads is the Jihaad ul Nafs, that is struggling against ones own self to overcome the evil. Alhamdulillah, and Allah knows best, Assalamualaykum (may peace be upon you.) smile

As muslims, you should know that there are two types of jihad: 1) struggling against yourself for the sake of Allah (struggle against the heart + soul) and 2) the other is physical (only when u have been attacked)
"So thus before doing Jihad by conveying the truth to others, we need to begin by conveying it to ourselves
Jihad of the self is only accomplished by defeating the shaytaan within yourself. Allah tells us:
"Surely, Shaitan (Satan) is an enemy to you so take (treat) him as an enemy."
(Surat 35:6)
And the command to treat him as an enemy is an exhortation to strive to the utmost of one's ability to fight against him.
"We have to resists his whispers. His play on our desires. His exploitation of our weaknesses such as anger, loneliness, depression and the likes." http://sunnahfollowers.net/ppt/Tawheed/Goodness/Good-19/text3.html
"As Muslims today, we must try to fulfill the Jihad of the heart and soul by conveying the truth to other. But to do this we must first educate ourself as to what the truth is, then conform and submit to it ourselves. Then convey it to others."
