According to all four recognized schools of Sunni jurisprudence (Hanafi, Hanbali, Maliki and Shafii), war against the infidels goes on in perpetuity, until "all chaos ceases, and all religion belongs to Allah" (Quran 8:39). Islamic law prohibits a peace treaty between a Muslim country and a non-Muslim country because the ultimate goal of Islam is to conquer the world for Allah. An armistice, called hudna between a Muslim country and a non-Muslim country is permissible for a period required to prepare for a war.
