My dear tayagi - thank you for your thorough explanation of Jihad - I can find only small areas where, well, I might disagree - oh - that's not the right word - well - I have some questions ...

3-Enemy creates obstacles for the promotion of Islam.

If I were to point out the differences between my 'religion' and islam and declare that I could never submit to islam's false god and if I promoted this attitude among my fellow countrymen? Would that behavior put me into your #3 catagory? And what would be the prescribed method of Jihad?

2- Jehad-e-Akbar

You mention the above form of Jihad as well as others - could you quote from the quran where these varied 'forms' are prescribed?

Thank you - and may you find the Peace of God
