Jihad

Jihad is one of the 5 giants of Islam religion. There are several points of view to Jihad. Some people state that it is a sacred war against those who are recognized as infidels according to Muslim belief. But there are also those who say that jihad has nothing to do with war, and it is a way of life according to norms and regulations of Koran.

According to some specialists who deal with learning more about Islam religion jihad may be of two kinds. There is a jihad that is recognized as struggle against drawbacks of a person. Means, that person has to fix all the drawbacks he or she has in order to become a person who is pleasing to Allah by his or her deeds and thoughts. And this jihad has nothing to do with swords and wars.

Though, there is also another kind of jihad and that kind is recognized as force struggle against Kaffirs. Kaffirs are those people who deprived of inner spirit that make them follow rules and restrictions of Koran. So, in other words the jihad of this type is a sacred war against those who neglect Allah and his supreme authority. Though, it is wrong to believe that jihad means killing of people of other religions.

Jihad that is recognized as sacred war is a myth created by those who know few about Islam and by those who wants other people to recognize Islam religion as a religion of death. Jihad is one of two giants of Islam and it means being totally devoted to Allah. And there is no way for jihad to be revealed as war waged against other people.
