00:00there is a word called as qital meaning to kill and islam gives permission to do qital to go to
00:11war whether it be self-defense or at war it is called as qital so one type of jihad is qital
00:22that is war in self-defense or war when required offense may be the best form of defense
00:27so there is qital but as far as the word jihad is concerned this word jihad in the first half of the
00:37prophethood of mhm sallallahu sallam when hummus received the way in about 23 years for the first
00:4411 12 years first half of his prophethood when he lived in mecca many times the revelation of the
00:55quran were revealed in mecca and the word jihad was used but the muslims in the meccan period
01:04never did any war against the non-muslim that proved that jihad does not mean
01:11killing or does not mean only going to war here the jihad was used meaning to strive and struggle
01:18many places for example allah says in the quran in surah and kabut chapter number 29 verse number 69
01:25that if you strive and struggle if you do jihad in the path of allah allah will open up his pathways
01:33that if you strive and struggle if you do jihad allah will open up your pathway it doesn't talk about war
01:38allah says in surah furkan chapter number 25 verse number 52 that do not believe in the unbelievers
01:53and strive strenuously against the unbelievers means do jihad against the kafir the unbelievers with the
02:02quran so how do we do jihad with the quran it doesn't say with the salt so jihad with the quran means
02:09we should strive and struggle to explain the quran to the non-muslims so surah furkan chapter number
02:1725 verse 52 is telling the muslims that strive strenuously do excessive jihad with the non-muslims
02:27with the quran that means they have to explain the teachings of the quran strive and struggle to
02:33explain the teachings of the quran to the non-muslims no way in no context does it mean
02:40that i have to fight i have to wage a holy war it means to strive and struggle and one verse of the
02:47quran is sufficient to dispel this misconception about jihad allah says in the quran in surah
02:54maida chapter number five verse number 32 if anyone kills any human being unless it be for murder or for
03:04spreading corruption in the land it is as though he has killed the whole of humanity and if anyone
03:11saves a single human being it is as though he has saved the whole nation yeah allah is saying if any
03:17human being whether muslim or muslim kills any other innocent human being whether muslim or muslim
03:24it is as though he has killed the whole of humanity there is no worse in any other scripture beside
03:31the quran which says this if you kill a single innocent human being unless he has done murder
03:40oh yes but corruption in the land if you kill a single innocent human being it is as though you
03:45have killed the whole of humanity and the verse continues if you save a single human being whether
03:51muslim or non-muslim if you save a single innocent human being whether muslim or non-muslim it is as though
03:58you have saved the whole of humanity whatever this verse is sufficient to dispel any misconceptions
04:06regarding jihad about islam and it is mainly the media especially after 9 11 they are spreading
04:18misconceptions regarding islam and today according to me media is the most powerful
04:26today media is the most powerful weapon in the world it can convert black into white day into night
04:33hero into a villain villain into hero unfortunately you muslims are not utilizing the media to convey the
04:40message of islam the non-muslims are using this media to attack islam we should use this media to
04:48convey to convey to do da'wah which is further on every muslim
04:56you
