The term of Jihad and Kafir are required to be deleted from Koran.

Reader comment on item: What is Jihad?

Submitted by mahendra Tamhane. (India), May 10, 2010 at 13:16

The term Jihad is interpreted deferrently from person to person and mostly it is misused to justify terrorism and to misguide the young muslim boys to recrut them for terrorism. The Koran is very clear without any ambiguity that Jihad is a holy war by Muslims against the non-muslims ( Kafirs.) Unless and untill these two tems Jihad and Kafir are there in Koran Muslims shall be instigated to wage war against non-muslim nations by way of treaditional war or terrorism. In the interest of peace of world and mankind both of the terms Jihad and Kafir are required to be deleted from Koran by way of peaceful persuation or by collective force and compeltion.
