What Is Jihad?

Jihad is a centuries-old Arabic word that literally means "striving" or "struggle." While the term has become synonomous with "holy war," particularly against enemies perceived to be a threat to Islam, the broader use denotes a spiritual or psychological struggle undertaken to please Allah. Such a struggle can mean the struggle to be a better Muslim or to resist immorality.
