Haha, you make me laugh. God says, "Yu Qaatiluuna feesabeelillah" you're right it means fight. "And fight for the sake of Allah"

I'm not trying to be an arab, im a bangladeshi. There is no great prize for being an arab, niether does it give me any special status, or something like that.

But you're funny, I can tell you that.

But Jihad in its political meaning does mean Fighting (militarily) for the sake of Allah, and some may consider that to be "Holy War."

Although "Jihad" Per se does not mean "Holy War" because I, as a muslim and many others like me, use this word to relate to many difficulties that we may have in our lives.
