Jihad comes from the Arabic root word Jahda which means to strive and struggle. in Islam context Jihad means to strive and struggle in way of Allah. Jihad does not means killing any person or non muslim. but today International media is showing Jihad as killing innocent people and we often hear such words Jihadi terror, Islamic terrorism. Jihad never means killing an innocent person. Islam never allows killing an innocent person.
Holy Quran says in Surah Maidah that whoever kills an innocent person its like that he has killed the whole of humanity and whoever saves an innocent person its as he has saved the whole of humanity. There are hundreds of Verses of Quran and Hadiths of Rasool Allah Saw clearing that killing any innocent person is Haram in Islam.
Some people today quote verses of quran out of context and try to show that Quran supports killings of innocents. but if you read with context you will see the truth. its my challenge to anyone to show a single verse of Quran which supports innocent killings. There are many types of Jihad. if you are striving in way of Allah you are doing Jihad. for example if you are helping the poors you are doing Jihad. if you are obeying your patents you are doing jihad. if you are fighting against injustice you are doing Jihad. May Allah Swt help us in understanding the correct meaning of Jihad.
