Abstract
Presently different concepts about Islam are floating in the minds of the people. Some hold that Islam is a religion of wars and battles i.e. terrorism; others label it with extremism. In reality, Islam promotes neither terrorism nor encourages extremism. It preaches tolerance and moderation.1 Islam forbids killing/bloodshed without valid justification.2 Similarly, different concepts of “Jihad” are also agitating human minds and a distorted concept is being projected everywhere. The out-of-proportion propagation of “Jihad” has also led to misunderstandings amongst Muslims & non-Muslims alike. This discourse is aimed at providing a clear and true picture of “Jihad” which is in consonance with the sublime teachings of the Holy Quran and Sunnah of the Holy Prophet (PBUH).
