Lesson 2: Jihad

Let's now begin with lesson 2: Jihad (a much more complex threat than you imagine).
If you've ever been masochistic enough to discuss with muslims, you've surely heard a lot the following bullshit: Jihad doesn't refer to violent conflict against the infidels. It's a spiritual struggle the believer wages against his sinful desires.
This is a perfect example of Kitman (lying by omission). Jihad is divided in two parts:
1) The Greater Jihad: the spiritual struggle against one's own sinful impulses.
2) The Lesser Jihad: the war against the infidels.
Forgetting to mention the second part of the definition is Kitman. Clearly stating that it doesn't exist is Taqiyya (overt lying about Islam's principles and/or about being a muslim). Either way, they're bullshitting you.
The lesser jihad is so central to Islam that it's minutely described and regulated in their fiqh (law) manuals:
>Jihad means WAR AGAINST KUFFAR TO ESTABLISH ISLAM, and is etymologically derived from the word mujahada, signifying warfare to establish the religion. Reliance of the Traveller, paragraph o9.0.
>The caliph fights all other peoples until they become Muslim Reliance of the Traveller, paragraph o9.9.
Ibn Khaldun, the most influential muslim historians who ever lived, said:
>In the Muslim community, the holy war is a religious duty, because of the universalism of the (Muslim) mission and (the obligation to) convert everybody to Islam EITHER BY PERSUASION OR BY FORCE. Ibn Khaldun, "The Muqudimmah: An introduction to History", Princeton University Press, New York, 1958, vol. 1, p. 473.

Al-Risala, one of the most followed legal manual in the Islamic world, describes jihad as such:
>It is a technical term for the MUSLIM FIGHTING THE UNBELIEVERS who have no treaty with the intention of elevating the word of Allah or presenting Islam. Abdullah ibn Abi Zayd al-Qayrawani, Al-Risala, paragraph 30.1.
http://www.muwatta.com/ebooks/english/risala_ibn_abi_zayd_salutations.pdf
A Summary of Islamic Jurisprudence, manual written in 2001, is even clearer:
>Allah has ordained jihad (fighting in the Cause of Allah) in order to render His Word the highest, His Religion the victorious, His enemies the defeated, and to test the faith of His true servants. []
>In Islam, jihad enjoys a great importance, as it is the highest level in religion and one of the best acts of worship to the extent that some scholars consider jihad the sixth pillar of Islam. []
>Linguistically, jihad means fighting the enemy vigorously and jurisprudentially (without breaking the laws of Allah). It involves fighting the disbelievers and it also includes much more activities showing striving in the Cause of Allah, not only mere fighting. [] it can be by means of hand (fighting), money, tongue, and heart. []
Starting to see the real depth of the concept of jihad? It's not only about guns and swords.
>Jihad has been ordained in Islam for some noble objectives: To rid people of the worship of taghuts (false objects of worship) and idols, and to lead them to worship Allah, Alone [] To humiliate the disbelievers, take revenge on them, and weaken their power [] Saleh Al-Fawzan, "A Summary of Islamic Jurisprudence", Al-Maiman Publishing House, Riyadh, 2005, Vol. 1, Part VI: "Jihad", pp. 471-474.

The hadiths make it clear that jihad is an essential part of Islam:
>[Bukhari 2792] The Prophet (pbuh) said, "A single endeavor (of fighting) in Allah's Cause in the forenoon or in the afternoon is better than the world and whatever is in it."
(Principle repeated in: Bukhari 2793-4, 2796, 2892; Muslim 1882-3; Riyad as-Salihin 12,1288.)
>[Bukhari 26] Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Messenger (pbuh) was asked, "What is the best deed?" He replied, "To believe in Allah and His Apostle. The questioner then asked, "What is the next (in goodness)? He replied, "To participate in Jihad (religious fighting) in Allah's Cause. The questioner again asked, "What is the next (in goodness)?" He replied, "To perform Hajj (Pilgrimage to Mecca)."
(The Hajj is one of the Five Pillars of Islam. Yet, here the jihad is defined as even more important.)
Many other hadiths of sahih (undeniable) level confirm the immense importance of the jihad in Islam (Bukhari 2782, 2785, 2786, 2790, 2791, 2795, 2818. Sahih Muslim 1884).
But maybe they're only talking about self-defense, you might be thinking. Nope. In this lesson we'll see a great number of quranic verses and hadiths which make it clear that jihad means attacking the infidels even when they haven't hurt muslims in any way.

Let's start with this fatwa. A muslim asks:
>I have a question about offensive Jihad. Does it mean that we are to attack even those non-Muslims which don't do anything against Islam just because we have to propagate Islam?
And the popular sunni mufti Ebrahim Desai replies:
>You should understand that we as Muslims firmly believe that the person who doesn't believe in Allah as he is required to, is a disbeliever who would be doomed to Hell eternally. Thus one of the primary responsibilities of the Muslim ruler is to spread Islam throughout the world, thus saving people from eternal damnation. [...] If a country doesn't allow the propagation of Islam to its inhabitants in a suitable manner or creates hindrances to this, then the Muslim ruler would be justifying in waging Jihad against this country. If the Kuffaar allow us to spread Islam peacefully, then we would not wage Jihad against them. (http://askimam.org/public/question_detail/12128.html)
Allow us to proselityze, OR ELSE!
Muslims are so nice. They care about our souls so much they're willing to slaughter us to save us.
The Grand Ayatollah Khomeini, spiritual guide of Iran and still essentially worshipped by shia muslims, said:
>The installation of a lay public power is equivalent to actively opposing the progress of Islamic order. Any nonreligious power, whatever form or shape it may take, is necessarily an atheistic power, the tool of Satan. Such Satanic power can engender nothing but corruption on earth, the supreme evil which must be pitilessly fought and rooted out. To achieve that end, we have no recourse other than to overthrow all governments that do not rest on pure Islamic principles [] That is not only our duty in Iran, but it is also the duty of all Muslims in the world, in all Muslim countries, to carry the Islamic political revolution to its final victory. Khomeini, "The Little Green Book", Bantam Books, 1985 (PDF edition), pp. 2-3.
So sunni and shia muslims seem to agree.

Jihad is a duty for every healthy male muslim:
>Who is Obligated to Fight in Jihad: Those called upon (O: to perform jihad when it is a communal obligation) are every able bodied man who has reached puberty and is sane. Reliance of the Traveller, paragraph o9.4.
This fiqh manual also explains when jihad is a communal obligation (Fard al-kifaya) or an individual one (Fard al-ayn):
>The Obligatory Character of Jihad. [...]
>There are two possible states in respect to non-Muslims.
>The first is when they are in their own countries, in which case jihad is a communal obligation. (When enough people perform it to successfully accomplish it, it is no longer obligatory upon others.)
