Oricha62:


The main reason why you asked the question is simply because you don't understand the meaning of JIHAD. The media around the world has been given wrong meaning to jihad on their own without knowledge instead of seeking the meaning from the scholars.

The literal meaning of Jihad is struggle or effort, and it doesn't mean holy war .there is nothing holy about war. War is war and it is evil .

Muslims use the word Jihad to describe three different kinds of struggle:

A believer's internal struggle to live out the Muslim faith as well as possible

The struggle to build a good Muslim society

The struggle to defend Islam, with force if necessary


Many modern writers explained that the main meaning of Jihad is the internal spiritual struggle, and this is accepted by many Muslims.

Maybe u didnt read the scriptures i quoted if not QURAN 9:123~ "O YOU WHO BELIEVE! FIGHT THOSE OF THE DISBELIEVERS WHO ARE CLOSE TO YOU AND LET THEM FIND HARSHNESS IN YOU AND KNOW THAT ALLAH IS WITH THOSE WHO ARE AL-MUTTAQUN"

Further explanation regarding your question


Jihad, Arabic word, means to struggle, to strive, to do something good, to overcome something evil. The Prophet (saw) said,

“The best Jihad is a perfect Hajj, A perfect pilgrimage”.

Because in going to make pilgrimage, you have to control yourself. People will step on your toes, maybe you’ll lose some of your, provisions. You know you will find difficulty, and people crush together - three million people in one location - you can imagine there will be peoples' tempers, all these things will be there and you’ll be driven to want to argue, to shout or to get upset but you’re told to be calm, to be patient.

The perfect Hajj in which one is able to get through that - those eight days - without flying off the handle, you know arguing with people next to you, shouting at somebody else, but patiently bearing whatever difficulties you find.

So, the Prophet (saw ) says, this was the best Jihad. Hajj was the best Jihad.

This is telling us that the term ‘Jihad’ though today it is associated with picking up a gun and trying to kill somebody, this is not the original meaning of the term.

Now Jihad has a variety of different levels, it may require, you know, that one picks up a gun, to defend one’s life, to defend one’s community where one comes under attack, this is there too. But it starts at the most basic level, in the heart.

On another occasion the Prophet (saw) had said that, “The greater Jihad is the Jihad of the heart, where one struggles against the evil tendencies within the heart. Because God has created us with an awareness of both good and evil, each human being is born with that. And religion is supposed to help the good side, support the good side, help the person to make the right choices.

But still it is the individual who has to make those choices, so when that individual struggles against his or her tendencies, they’re involved in Jihad at the most basic level. And if one cannot engage in that level of Jihad then no, of the other levels, none of the other levels are true Jihad. Because we do this for the sake of God, believing that this is what is pleasing to God, this is what God wants from us, that we be good people, we promote goodness, we live goodness. So on the basic level which is required of us if we cannot do that, then even on the highest levels where we’re fighting, offering our lives up, supposedly to defend the faith, or the believers, or the country of the believers, or whatever level it is, it will be missing that most vital component. And the Prophet (saw) had said that such a person who fights there without that vital component, in fact will not earn the reward, will not be a true martyr, will in fact end up, a loser in the next life. So, Jihad is the struggle against evil on all levels.

Brother,I strongly think the wickedness of Islam you used in your question is NOT THE BEST WORD ,No one knows tomorrow. I hope my my explanation will reduce your misunderstanding about Islam .

Maybe u didnt read the scripture i quoted if not QURAN 9:123~ "O YOU WHO BELIEVE! FIGHT THOSE OF THE DISBELIEVERS WHO ARE CLOSE TO YOU AND LET THEM FIND HARSHNESS IN YOU AND KNOW THAT ALLAH IS WITH THOSE WHO ARE AL-MUTTAQUN"

I think in islam it is permited to lie for the cause of islam because u said islam doesnt wage war against other faiths but it is written in QURAN 9:123~ "O YOU WHO BELIEVE! FIGHT THOSE OF THE DISBELIEVERS WHO ARE CLOSE TO YOU AND LET THEM FIND HARSHNESS IN YOU AND KNOW THAT ALLAH IS WITH THOSE WHO ARE AL-MUTTAQUN"

Tartar9 is being honest here. Unlike the majority of Muslims he stated facts about the command to spread Islam via force and jihad.
Here are some narrations, hadiths and quran verses to understand his mindset.

Tabari VIII:35/Ishaq:464 "The Jews were made to come down, and Allah's Messenger imprisoned them. Then the Prophet went out into the marketplace of Medina (it is still its marketplace today), and he had trenches dug in it. He sent for the Jewish men and had them beheaded in those trenches. They were brought out to him in batches. They numbered 800 to 900 boys and men."

Tabari VIII:40 "The Messenger of God commanded that furrows should be dug in the ground for the Qurayza. Then he sat down. Ali and Zubayr began cutting off their heads in his presence."

Quran 8:39. "And fight with them until there is no more persecution and religion should be only for Allah; but if they desist, then surely Allah sees what they do."

Qur'an (9:29)-"Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued."

Sura 9:5. "When the sacred months are over slay the idolaters wherever you find them. Arrest them, besiege them, and lie in ambush everywhere for them."

Bukhari 2:24: Allah's Apostle said: "I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah's Apostle, and offer the prayers perfectly and give the obligatory charity, so if they perform a that, then they save their lives and property from me except for Islamic laws and then their reckoning (accounts) will be done by Allah."

If it is true that prophet El-Buba called president Buhari "irresponsible" and spoke ill of him ,i think he(El-Buba) is wrong. The bible says we should not speak evil of our rulers no matter what~ACTS 23:1-5

There is nothing wrong with a woman wearing trousers as far as she does it as a female, there are some women who wear trousers but does it as a male, that is wrong and the bible condems it. It is just as if u said a woman should not were boxers because it covers the legs to some extent. Some cultures males wears skirt, it is not wrong as far as they do it as a male. What the bible condems is behaving and dressing in the context(meaning) of the oposite sex .a male can wear skirt but in the context(meaning) that he is still a male but he is wrong to wear skirt in the context(meaning) that he is a female. I pray u get this in Jesus name

Read the book of MATTHEW 5:38-48 . Jesus said if they smite thee on thy left cheek turn thy right to the person. I wonder what type of retaliation Jesus meant. This is what i believe. Leave self defence for the government ,the bible says he bears not the sword in vain~ROMANS 13

Muhammad the founder of Islam did no miracle, he claimed the Quran was his miracle and he is Islams best prophet. Who is greater than Muhammad in Islam that is doing miracles mohammad couldn't do.
