Reader comment on item: What is Jihad?
in response to reader comment: The word jihad and our dear david needs to stick to Urdu

Submitted by Saqib (Pakistan), Jul 9, 2010 at 11:31

In Islam the word "Jihad" means struggle in the Path of Allah, "Jihad" has three types.
1. Jihad bin Nafs , Internal Struggle to maintain Faith & disown bad hobbies
2. Jihad bil Maal, The Struggle through One's Wealth in the Path of Allah (Means to give charity, give some part of your money to poor peoples)
3. Jihad bis Saif, Struggle with Saif (Sword) in the path of Allah, to protect Islam on earth. Not to offence against any one.

Secondly Islam is allow to build church, Mandirs and other fane of non Muslims (Beleiver of Religions other then Islam) and allow non muslims to pray as they want.

Please don't fight until you have sound knowledge about Islam. Thanks
