Jihad - Mr. Thomas' World History Class The Jihad is an Islamic term that is often used to refer to the religious duty of the Islam worshippers. Jihad has two different definitions. Jihad in Arabic term is a direct translation to a struggle. The greater Jihad is a spritual struggle but rarely is used in the same ways in modern times as it was back in the age of imperialism and the industrial revolution. The lesser Jihad refers to a holy war against infidels and their country. The lesser Jihad is often refered to in the Qu'ran(Koran,Qur'an). Jihad is a war between muslims and non-muslims with a purpose of converting them to Islam. Muhammad's orders and so as long as Islam and dar al-kufr exist, so will Jihad. Muhammad prior to his death explained that all must die Islam. This caused violent actions that still countinue today.
