In this revised and expanded second edition, author David Cook has included new material in light of pivotal events over of the past ten years, such as the revolutionizing events of the Arab Spring, the death of Osama bin Laden, and the rise of new Islamic factions such as ISIL. Jihad is one of the most loaded and misunderstood terms in the news today. Contrary to popular understanding, the term does not mean "holy war." This judiciously balanced, accessibly written, and highly relevant book looks closely at a range of sources from sacred Islamic texts to modern interpretations of the term, opening a critically important perspective on the role of Islam in the contemporary world. As David Cook traces the practical and theoretical meanings of jihad, he cites from scriptural, legal, and newly translated texts to give readers a taste of the often ambiguous information that is used to construct Islamic doctrine. He looks closely at the life and teaching of the Prophet Muhammad and at the ramifications of the great Islamic conquests in 634 to 732 A.D. He sheds light on legal developments relevant to fighting and warfare, and places the internal, spiritual jihad within the larger context of Islamic religion. He describes some of the conflicts that occur in radical groups and shows how the more mainstream supporters of these groups have come to understand and justify violence. He has also included a special appendix of relevant documents including materials related to the September 11 attacks and published manifestos issued by Osama bin Laden and Palestinian suicide-martyrs"--Provided by publisher. 606 $aJihad 606 $aWar$xReligious aspects$xIslam 606 $aIslamic fundamentalism 606 $aIslam$y21st century 610 $aal qaida. 610 $aarab spring. 610 $acaliphate. 610 $acontemporary islam. 610 $adefense of islam. 610 $aglobalist radical islam. 610 $agreater jihad. 610 $aholy war. 610 $aisil. 610 $aisis. 610 $aislam. 610 $aislamic doctrine. 610 $aislamic extremism. 610 $aislamic fundamentalism. 610 $aislamic religion. 610 $aislamic studies. 610 $ajihad ideology. 610 $ajihad theory. 610 $ajihad. 610 $ajihadi culture. 610 $ajihadi states. 610 $ajihadism. 610 $akoran. 610 $alesser jihad. 610 $amuslim radicals. 610 $aquran. 610 $aradical islam. 610 $aradical muslims. 610 $aradicalism. 610 $areligious history. 610 $areligious terrorism. 610 $asalafi jihadi. 610 $aspiritual warfare. 610 $aterrorism. 615 0$aJihad. 615 0$aWar$xReligious aspects$xIslam. 615 0$aIslamic fundamentalism. 615 0$aIslam 676 $a297.7/2 700 $aCook$b David$f1966-$01534127 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910798070803321 996 $aUnderstanding jihad$93781407 997 $aUNINA
