  39. Islam as Monotheistic Religion

  40. Jihad and the Conduct of War • Islam is not addicted to war, and jihad is not one of its "pillars” • Jihadin Arabic does not mean "holy war”. It means "struggle” or “strive”. • It is the difficult effort needed to put God's will into practice at every level • “Greater jihad” in the Quran is that of the soul, tongue, pen, faith, and of morality. • The "smaller jihad" is that of arms.

  41. Jihad and the Conduct of War 2 • Much of the Koran revealed in the context of an all-out war imposed on early Muslims by the powerful city of Mecca, and many passages deal with the conduct of armed struggle. • While one finds "slay [enemies] wherever you find them!" (e.g., 4: 89), almost every case it is followed by something like "if they let you be, and do not make war on you, and offer you peace, God does not allow you to harm them" (2:90; 4: 90; 5: 2; 8: 61; 22: 39)

  42. In Notes Questions Put at the bottom of the page • Do you think some one should be fired for a negative comment against another religion? • How would you define racist? • How would you define bigot?

Racist: a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others. • Bigot- a person who is utterly intolerant of any differing belief or opinion.

  44. Thus, the only permissible war in the Quran is one of self-defense, you cannot kill unarmed (civilian), and you have to protect prisoners of war.

  45. Jihad and the Conduct of War 3 • Warfare is always evil. • Muslims may not begin hostilities • Hostilities must be brought to an end as quickly as possible, and must cease the minute the enemy sues for peace (2:192-3; 41:34) • ‘Martyrdom’: Those killed during fighting or while doing civic duties (martyrs) are promised a place in heaven (several passages, e.g., 2:154; 3:169-172) • However, suicide is not allowed; it is forbidden and condemned (e.g., 6:151, 17:33, 25:68) • 'Do not attack a temple, a church, a synagogue. Do not bring a tree or a plant down. Do not harm a horse or a camel’

  46. Social Justice • Charity, Charity, Charity …. • On top of the Zakat. Help the orphan, the poor, the ill, the lost, the homeless, the elderly • Freedom, Integrity, Equality, Justice …. • “An hour of justice by a ruler is better than sixty days of hard work” (Hadith) • “when you are greeted with a greeting of peace, answer with an even better greeting, or at least the like thereof" (4: 86).
