That jihad is defined as the inward struggle for moral perfection is not a bad idea. But that idea is of modern context, the Ahmadiya Muslim. Ahmad the Muslim and his followers are deemed heretics by the umma and are outcast and even killed. Most of those Muslims the westerners meets are from Pakistan and are Ahmadiya Muslims. NOT representative of the whole or EVEN a small minority.
