Moulavi Gerágh Ali

“ The word rendered "strenuous" is originally "mojahid" (plural "Mojahidin," from Jihád) , which in classical Arabic and throughout the Koran means to do one's utmost, to make effort, to strive, to exert, to employ one's-self diligently, studiously, sedulously, earnestly, zealously, or with energy, and does not mean fighting or warfare. It was subsequently applied to religious war, but was never used in the Koran in such a sense. ”
