greater and lesser jihad and effects on life
- greater jihad is where a muslim struggles to over come inner evil in ones life, it is a struggle for muslims in a non islamic country and makes them a better muslim
- lesser jihad is the struggle for a muslim to overcome injustice in their society, this does not mean forcing people to convert to islam but encouraging them and protecting the ummah
- war can occur if it is in defence of islam but war in only a peaceful way e.g. talking
- life should always be a struggle for islam to show allah that they have tried to be the best muslim when it comes to the day of judgement
- perfect muslims must follow the 5 pillars and fulfill shari'ah law
