Jihad
The Qur'an does not ignore war, but Muslims may only use force when the practice of their faith is threatened. Muslims use the word Jihad to mean ‘a struggle’ or ‘striving against evil’. But, Jihad also has a deeper, more personal meaning for Muslims; it can refer to an internal struggle to find peace based on the guidance of the Qur'an.
