Terrorism And Jehad

(Kashif Imran, mianwali)

Jihad is a peaceful concept and its purpose is to spread peace all over the world. While terrorism is opposite to Jihad. Its purpose is destructive instead of constructive. It creates terror and fear among the people. We see that in suicide attack there is destruction of Govt. and private property at high level.

Islam is peaceful religion and order to save lives of non-Muslims as well as Muslims. In jihad every religious warrior (Mujahid) is ordered when he go for Jihad:
1. Do not kill innocent civilians particularly women, children and old men.
2. Do not destroy crops, fields, orchards and gardens.
3. Do not destroy private property.
 
If we read Holy Quran we have come to know that Allah say not to fight every non-Muslims but only those non-Muslims who fight with you in religion matters. In Surah Al-Mumtahanah Allah Almighty say, “Allah does not forbid you from those who do not fight you because of religion and do not expel you from your homes - from being righteous toward them and acting justly toward them. Indeed, Allah loves those who act justly”.

In these verses we have come to know about the teaching of Islam that Allah order the Muslims to respect and save Lives of Muslims as well as non-Muslims.

In modern war there is no moral values and it is said that everything and step is legal and right. In modern war there is no care about human being or moral values.

Terrorism has spread all over the world in these days particularly in Pakistan. Muslims are killing Muslims as well as innocent non-Muslims. In these days, suicide attack is the main source of the terrorists. Terrorists say that they are performing Jihad and they are told that they are on right path of virtue and will go Eden. In fact they are wrong and their way of Jihad is absolutely wrong. Many people are killed in suicide attacks and the number of those who crippled for life is very large.

In Holy Quran, Allah Almighty say about these people,
“Those will be companions of the Fire; they will abide therein eternally."

In another verse of Holy Quran, Allah say,
“For them in this world is disgrace and they will have in the Hereafter a great punishment.”

In Holy Quran, Allah Almighty say about the people who follow the teachings of Allah and his Prophet, But they who believe and do righteous deeds - those are the companions of Paradise; they will abide therein eternally.

May Allah Guide us to the straight path, The path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have evoked [Your] anger or of those who are astray. Amin
