Summary

"A Critical Exposition of the Popular 'Jihád'" by Cherágh Ali is a book dedicated to correcting misunderstandings about Jihad in Islam. Counter to popular belief, the book argues that Mohammad's wars were defensive actions, born out of the persecution he and his followers faced. Instead of supporting forced conversion or unprovoked aggression, the book presents these struggles, such as encounters with the Koreish tribe in Mecca and battles like Badr and Ohad, as reactive measures necessary for survival and religious freedom, while using interpretations of the Koran to back up the analysis.
