The reason behind Al-Jihad

The reason behind Al-Jihad

The holly jihad in Islamic religion is for the benefit of the enemies not for hate or revenge from them so the feeling of fatherhood and brotherhood is dominating the hearts of the faithful army , whatever was the feeling of their enemies , hence imam Hussein cried on his enemies in Al-Taf war for their crimes toward him and toward God and toward themselves

Therefore the reason behind Al-Jihad is to make justice and luxury prevail the other countries , remove the darkness from them and guide the society to the right way and these are the real purpose behind the wars that our prophet Mohammed and his trustee imam Ali led them against their enemies , and if some one said that God said in holly Quran (O prophet strive hard against the unbelievers and the hypocrites and be unyielding to them ) and this verse contradict the saying that the religion is based on fatherhood , mercy and love

These two verse don't contradict the speech mentioned above because the fatherhood , love and guidance are the important aims and these need hard and rigid introductions through getting rid the disbelievers , hypocrites because they are like germs in the society which they must be removed to prevail justice in any society
