Abstract
From among all the matters seized by takfiri groups, none of them is as important as jihad. Because, from one hand, takfiri movements, taking use of inverted readings of jihad, justify their attacks on Muslims, and on the other, anti-Islamic groups attribute the acts of takfiris to Islam and Muslims and provide the grounds for Islamphobia and war against Islam. During the last three centuries, the inverted readings of jihad had caused irretrievable damages to the world of Islam and shed many innocent people’s blood. The present research, taking a comparative look at jihad, first refers to the Quran's view of jihad and struggles among Muslims, and next refers to the different readings of this holy teaching which is formed mainly in the modern time.
