The third strategy used by the media is that they pick up certain

00:00:08 --> 00:00:11

Islamic words, and the mistranslated

00:00:12 --> 00:00:17

and today the most misunderstood word is the word jihad. Jihad is

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

not only misunderstood by many of the non Muslims, it is even

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

misunderstood by many of the Muslims. Many non Muslims and

00:00:25 --> 00:00:30

Muslims think that jihad is any war fought by any Muslim for any

00:00:30 --> 00:00:34

reason, whether it be for land, whether it be for fame, whether it

00:00:34 --> 00:00:39

be for wealth, whether it be for money, Jihad does not be any war

00:00:39 --> 00:00:42

fought by any Muslim, whether it be for land, whether it be for

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

fame, whether it be for wealth, whether it be for money, jihad is

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

derived from the Arabic word shahada, which means to strife,

00:00:50 --> 00:00:51

which means to struggle.

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

Jihad means to strive and struggle against one's own evil

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

inclination. Jihad also means to strive and struggle to make the

00:01:00 --> 00:01:04

society better. Jihad also means to strive and struggle in the

00:01:04 --> 00:01:08

battlefield. So Jihad basically means to strive to struggle.

00:01:09 --> 00:01:13

For example, if there's a student who's driving and struggling to

00:01:13 --> 00:01:17

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

00:01:17 --> 00:01:20

For example, I'm delivering the message of Islam. I'm not harming

00:01:20 --> 00:01:24

anyone, I'm not killing anyone. So even I'm doing jihad. I'm striving

00:01:24 --> 00:01:25

and struggling.

00:01:27 --> 00:01:32

And many non Muslims, many people, they have a misconception that

00:01:32 --> 00:01:38

Jihad can only be done by Muslims. This misconception can easily be

00:01:38 --> 00:01:42

removed just by quoting two words of the Glorious Quran. Allah

00:01:42 --> 00:01:45

subhanaw taala says and so Look man, Chaplin with Palawan was them

00:01:45 --> 00:01:48

14 Wallace saying Al Insana be validate homily

00:01:49 --> 00:01:54

Salafi Amen, that you have enjoined upon man, kindness to his

00:01:54 --> 00:01:57

parents, his mother bore him with weakness upon weakness and his

00:01:57 --> 00:01:59

weaning is in two years.

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

And the next was Allah subhanaw taala says into Look man, up

00:02:05 --> 00:02:09

number 31 was 18 We're in Jaha Dhaka Allah and to stick a be

00:02:09 --> 00:02:13

Malay, Stella Kabir Island, filata. Homer, and if the parents

00:02:13 --> 00:02:16

they do jihad, strive and struggle to make you worse than others

00:02:16 --> 00:02:21

besides Allah subhanaw taala then do not obey them, but yet them

00:02:21 --> 00:02:23

with love and compassion.

00:02:24 --> 00:02:27

Allah subhanaw taala repeats a similar message in Sudan, Kabul

00:02:27 --> 00:02:31

chapter 29 was Psalm eight, where India had actually to Sri kabhi

00:02:31 --> 00:02:35

Malay Celica BIA Island Fela to the Houma and if the parents they

00:02:35 --> 00:02:39

do jihad strive and struggle to make you worship others besides

00:02:39 --> 00:02:41

Allah subhanaw taala then do not obey them.

00:02:43 --> 00:02:47

Your Allah subhanaw taala is talking about non Muslim parents

00:02:47 --> 00:02:50

who are doing jihad striving and struggling to make their children

00:02:50 --> 00:02:54

worship others besides Allah subhanaw taala so this type of

00:02:54 --> 00:02:59

jihad is jihad visability shaytaan jihad in the path of the Satan,

00:02:59 --> 00:03:04

what we Muslim should do is jihad visa vie de la, jihad in the way

00:03:04 --> 00:03:09

of Allah. But normally when the term jihad is used, it is taken

00:03:09 --> 00:03:13

for granted that it is jihad feasable Allah, jihad in the way

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

of Allah

00:03:16 --> 00:03:21

and many people, they translate jihad as holy war. This word holy

00:03:21 --> 00:03:25

war in Arabic, it is Harmon Maka, dasa, Norway's this word harbor

00:03:25 --> 00:03:29

Makanda present in the Glorious Quran, or in the authentic Hadees

00:03:30 --> 00:03:34

this word holy war, it was first used to describe the Christian

00:03:34 --> 00:03:38

crusaders who spread Christianity at the point of the assault and

00:03:38 --> 00:03:42

forced 10s of 1000s of people to accept Christianity. Today, it is

00:03:42 --> 00:03:44

used in a negative connotation for the Muslims why.

00:03:47 --> 00:03:49

So this is the strategy of the media

00:03:51 --> 00:03:54

that the pick up certain Islamic words and the mistranslated
