THE MEANING OF JIHAD .

Report This Post

I HEAR NEWS REPORTS FROM ALL NETWORKS TRANSLATING THE ARABIC WORD JIHAD AS " HOLY WAR " . THIS IS INCORRECT . THE TRUE MEANING OF THE WORD IS " TO STRUGGLE AGAINST EVIL " .  IN ISLAM , JIHAD IS  IN DIFFERENT STAGES . THE FIRST THING TO DO IS TO LOOK IN THE MIRROR . CONTROL YOUR HUNGER ;  CONTROL YOUR TEMPER ; CONTROL URGES ( DRUGS AND OTHER THINGS  )  THAT ARE IN EXCESS ; STOP BEING LAZY :  THIS IS JIHAD .  THEN WHEN ONE CONTROLS THESE , THEN IN YOUR IMMEDIATE SURROUNDINGS . CARING FOR YOUR PARENTS ( AND FAMILY IN GENERAL ) ; CARING FOR YOUR NEIGHBORS ; CLEANING UP YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD ; GETTING INVOLVED WITH YOUR COMMUNITY : THIS IS JIHAD .  THEN WHEN ONE CONTROLS THIS ,  IN THE GREATER SOCIETY ( NATION ) . FEEDING THE HUNGRY ; CARING FOR THE ORPHANS AND HOMELESS ; HELPING THE NEEDY ; STOPPING ABUSE OF WOMEN , ANIMALS , ETC . ; MAKING ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL BONDS WITH THOSE WHOM MIGHT BE AGAINST YOU  : THIS IS JIHAD .  THEN WHEN ONE CONTROLS THIS , WHEN ALL ELSE FAILS , AND ONLY WHEN ONE HAS EXHAUSTED ALL OTHER PEACEFUL MEANS , THEN JIHAD BY THE SWORD  ( WHAT THE MEDIA  MISNAMES AS   " HOLY WAR " )  BUT ONLY WHEN ALL OTHER MEANS HAVE BEEN USED .  JIHAD STARTS WITHIN , THEN WITH GOOD INTENTIONS WILL SPREAD AMOUNGST THE RIGHTIOUS AND GOD FEARING .

Ok, now that I am trying to understand instead of just going off on people, help me out here.
I understand that Jihad means many things , but I have to ttell you only one thing concerns me:
AND ONLY WHEN ONE HAS EXHAUSTED ALL OTHER PEACEFUL MEANS...

Yikes!!!
What if I decide to soon that I have exhausted all other means?

Andd if I can just pull my sword and start slicin' and dicin, doesn't that put me has judge jury and executioner?

WHAT IS THE WORD FOR COWARDLY SUICIDE BOMBER. WHY ARE MUSLIMS CONTINUALLY BLOWING THINGS UP. DO ARABS NEED TO GET LAID MORE OFTEN?
A ROSE BY ANY OTHER NAME...
I THINK MUSLIMS SHOULD RETRACT THEIR JIHAD AGAINST SOAP AND CIVILIZATION.
ONE OF THOSE SUICIDAL NUTS IN GLASGOW WAS YELLING ALLAH, ALLAH, AFTER CRASHING A JEEP FULL OF EXPLOSIVES INTO AN AIRPORT AND SETTING HIMSELF ON FIRE.
WHAT A RETARDED LOSER. THEY SHOULD PACK SOME C4 UP HIS POOP CHUTE AND DECLARE A WAR ON LOSERS WITH BODY ODOR.
-AERY FEEK.

Yahy... THIS IS A "WONDERFUL" CONFESSION !!!

YOU'D BETTER GET USED TO IT AND QUICK !!

THIS NATION LIKE MANY YOUR KIND TRY TO DESTROY WAS FOUNDED ON CHRISTIAN PRINCIPLES AND ANY OTHER RELIGION IS ONLY TOLERATED BY THE FREEDOM OF PRACTICE WE AMERICANS ALLOW.

SO WHY DON'T Y'ALL GO BACK AND EXPLAIN THE WORD "JIHAD" DOESN'T MEAN RAPING, KILLING WOMEN AND CHILDREN AND CAUSING MAYHEM AND DO SOME GOOD.

THEN YOU COULD TAKE UP THE SWORD AND KILL ONE ANOTHER LIKE YOU INTEND TO DO TO THE REST OF THE WORLD WHO REFUSE TO BELIEVE IN YOUR ARCHAIC
NONTHEISTIC FAITH.
NO "PEACE" GOES TO YOUR TYPES.

WE DON'T WANT TO KNOW,LEARN OR UNDERSTAND YOUR DEMONIC FAITH THANK YOU.

Yah,

I've always been the kind of person who thinks with an open mind when it comes to cultural beliefs, rituals, etc but as you can see by most of the comments posted on your blog regarding the definition of Jihad, you have seen the intolerance that most people have regarding Jihad. With all due respect to you and your culture, sir, trying to validate a word that many Americans perceive and know as the main reason why there is a war that is going on that we shouldn't even be in, is not at the best of many people's interest regarding Jihad. I appreciate your stamina and many of the other blogs that you have posted in the past but to think that trying to make people realize that Jihad means "to struggle against evil" almost seems prime evil. I will say this in your defense, most of the Muslim society that is in our nation are of somewhat peaceful decent. I have many customers that are of Muslim decent and think that the majority of them are peaceful and are not radically motivated to terror; however, as they say, "all it takes is one bad apple to make a sour crop". It is unfortunate but that, my friend, is the way society has been trained to think for an indefinite period until it is all said and done with.

Correction, I meant to say that "most of the Muslim society that is in our nation are of somewhat peaceful descent." Kinda early to be trying to think intellectually, lol.

As usual I am not in league with those screaming back the same kind of hate that is perceived by these radicals.
And GDY3 nailed it. That one word will get you way more than you want. I think jihaad is for you what "We are mad as hell and we are not going to take it anymore" is to us.
If we continue to sling this garbage at each other, then it would be best if everyone went back to their country of origin.
My hope is that the thinkers will get together and move us forward. The zealots from all parties can come along for the ride or stay behind and fight it out with each other.
