DOES JIHAD MEAN TO KILL ALL NON-MUSLIMS?
Jihad is never a tool of waging war against the innocents; it抯 never a means of flexing muscles or bullying the weak and oppressed. Jihad in Islam is something unique, established to defend the divine message from being eliminated or hindered by its enemies. Shedding more light on the true concept of Jihad, let us read the text of Dr. Muzammil H. Siddiqi, president of the Fiqh Council of North America.
What is Jihad?
Jihad is one of the most misunderstood, and abused aspects of Islam. There are some Muslims who exploit and misuse this concept for their own political objectives. There are many non-Muslims who misunderstand it. There are some non-Muslims who misinterpret it to discredit Islam and Muslims.
The word Jihad does not mean 揌oly War |
