The next question

00:00:03 --> 00:00:06

My name is Raj, what is the meaning of jihad?

00:00:10 --> 00:00:13

Many people, they have a misconception and they think that

00:00:13 --> 00:00:17

jihad is any war fought by any Muslim, whether it be for any

00:00:17 --> 00:00:21

reason, whether it be for land, whether it be for wealth, whether

00:00:21 --> 00:00:25

it be for race, Jihad does not mean any war for any Muslim,

00:00:25 --> 00:00:28

whether it be for land, whether it be for wealth, whether it be for

00:00:28 --> 00:00:32

race, jihad is derived from the Arabic word shahada, which means

00:00:32 --> 00:00:35

to strive, which means to struggle. Jihad also means to

00:00:35 --> 00:00:40

strive and struggle against one's own evil and coalition. Jihad also

00:00:40 --> 00:00:44

means to strive and struggle to make the society better. Jihad

00:00:44 --> 00:00:47

also means to strive and struggle in self defense in the

00:00:47 --> 00:00:51

battlefield. So Jihad basically means to strive to struggle.

00:00:53 --> 00:00:58

For example, if a student is striving and struggling to pass an

00:00:58 --> 00:01:01

examination in Arabic, we would say that he's doing jihad.

00:01:03 --> 00:01:06

Many people have a misconception that Jihad can only be done by

00:01:06 --> 00:01:11

Muslims. This misconception can easily be removed just by quoting

00:01:11 --> 00:01:12

to verse of the Glorious Quran.

00:01:15 --> 00:01:18

Allah subhanaw taala season so Look, man, chap, number one was

00:01:18 --> 00:01:22

from 14 What was sinal insanity Valley day And We have enjoined

00:01:22 --> 00:01:27

upon man kindness to his parents. And if the parents did do jihad,

00:01:27 --> 00:01:30

strive and struggle to make you worship others besides Allah

00:01:30 --> 00:01:35

subhanaw taala then do not obey them, but yet, live with them with

00:01:35 --> 00:01:39

love and compassion. Allah subhanaw taala clearly says in so

00:01:39 --> 00:01:44

Look, man, chapter 31 was from 14 and 15, that if the parents did do

00:01:44 --> 00:01:47

jihad, strive and struggle to make you worship others besides Allah

00:01:47 --> 00:01:52

subhanaw taala than to not obey them. Now this type of jihad is

00:01:52 --> 00:01:56

jihad visability shaped on a similar was in the Glorious Quran

00:01:57 --> 00:02:00

ministered on Kabu chapter 29 Verse 28,

00:02:01 --> 00:02:05

that if the parents did do jihad, strive and struggle to make you

00:02:05 --> 00:02:08

worship others besides Allah subhanaw taala than to not obey

00:02:08 --> 00:02:08

them.

00:02:10 --> 00:02:14

So here the Glorious Quran is talking about non Muslim parents

00:02:14 --> 00:02:17

doing jihad, striving and struggling to make their children

00:02:17 --> 00:02:21

worship others besides Allah subhanaw taala this type of jihad

00:02:21 --> 00:02:26

is jihad visability shaytaan jihad in the part of the Satan, what we

00:02:26 --> 00:02:31

Muslim should do is jihad visa vie de la, jihad in the way of Allah

00:02:31 --> 00:02:32

subhanaw taala.

00:02:33 --> 00:02:38

But normally, when the term jihad is used, it is taken for granted

00:02:38 --> 00:02:42

that Jihad feasable Allah, the term jihad is used, if it is you

00:02:42 --> 00:02:46

separately or individually, it is taken for granted that it is jihad

00:02:46 --> 00:02:47

visa vie de la

00:02:49 --> 00:02:52

Sol Jihad basically means to strive for striking.

00:02:54 --> 00:02:57

One type of Jihadist Qatar that is fighting in the way of Allah

00:02:57 --> 00:03:00

subhanaw taala. But Jihad does not basically mean a war.

00:03:03 --> 00:03:05

And if you look at the lifestyle of our beloved Prophet Muhammad,

00:03:05 --> 00:03:10

peace be upon him. The first 13 years of Prophethood there were

00:03:10 --> 00:03:13

several verses that will reveal talking about jihad, but the

00:03:13 --> 00:03:17

Prophet peace be upon he never fought physically fighting. It was

00:03:17 --> 00:03:20

later on when the Prophet peace be upon him went to Medina de de was

00:03:20 --> 00:03:24

to place and Allah subhanaw taala says in the Glorious Quran, in

00:03:24 --> 00:03:28

Surah and Kabul chapter 29 verse Psalm 69, one lady in a jar who

00:03:28 --> 00:03:32

fina Lana Deanna homeschool Anna and those who strive and are we

00:03:32 --> 00:03:36

shall surely open up their pathways. When this was was

00:03:36 --> 00:03:39

revealed, there was no war, physical war that took place

00:03:41 --> 00:03:46

and one was of the Glorious Quran is sufficient to prove that

00:03:46 --> 00:03:50

killing any innocent human being is as if you have killed the whole

00:03:50 --> 00:03:50

of humanity.

00:03:53 --> 00:03:56

Allah subhanaw taala says in the Glorious Quran surah Majda chapter

00:03:56 --> 00:04:00

number five was tempted to man cartella and FCMB lady neffs our

00:04:00 --> 00:04:06

facade in fill our fucka Anna malerkotla NASA Jamia woman, yeah,

00:04:06 --> 00:04:11

forget anima NASA Jamia that if anyone kills any human being,

00:04:11 --> 00:04:14

unless it be for murder, or for spreading corruption the land it

00:04:14 --> 00:04:18

is as if he has killed the whole of humanity. And if anyone saves

00:04:18 --> 00:04:21

any human being, it is as if he has saved the whole of humanity.

00:04:23 --> 00:04:26

So killing any innocent human being is completely prohibited in

00:04:26 --> 00:04:30

Islam. And even according to him at the hobby, he writes in his

00:04:30 --> 00:04:35

book, Al Kabyle 70 major sins when he lists the major sins, and He

00:04:35 --> 00:04:39

says that murder is the second major sin in Islam.

00:04:41 --> 00:04:44

So killing any innocent human being it is completely prohibited

00:04:44 --> 00:04:45

in Islam.

00:04:47 --> 00:04:51

This misconception regarding the word jihad previously, it wasn't

00:04:51 --> 00:04:53

on the top of the charts.

00:04:54 --> 00:04:59

But the media depending how the media it portrays Islam, these

00:04:59 --> 00:04:59

myths

00:05:00 --> 00:05:03

conceptions arise in the minds of the non Muslims
