What is jihad?

History

It's C. <span>It is the Islamic word for an internal struggle against evil or a physical struggle with non-Muslims.

The word "jihad" comes from the arabic language and it means "to strive or struggle". We apply this word to striving to be a better person or to struggle with our faith and striving to make it stronger. Back in time, during the time of Muhammed (peace be upon him), Jihad meant the same thing, but it also applied to defending their nation from the attacks of the other Arab clans (one of which is known as the Quraysh). Hence "struggling and striving" to defend their nation. 

The way some radical "muslim" terrorists use it today is not right at all. That's not what Islam teaches, and those terrorists are not really considered Muslims by other Muslims and Muslim scholars. We disown those people as they are putting our religion in a bad light. 

Also, on a side note, please don't always just blindly listen and believe what the media says. Please do research on your own and you will find that how the media portrays Islam is not true. It is actually a very peaceful religion. In the Quran (the holy book of Islam) a comparison is made that says if you were to unjustly kill one person, it is as if you have killed all of humanity (the level of sin you receive for it) and if you save the life a single person it is as if you have saved all of humanity (the level of reward and blessings you get for it). 

Thanks for reading this. I'm glad I got to answer this question for you. Good luck and have a beautiful day!</span>

In which of the following ways did Soviet women differ from American women in their involvement in World War II?
BigorU [14]
<span>There are two correct answers: B. Soviet women served in a combatant role; and D. American women worked in factories.

During the Second World War, women in the United States started to work in factories, covering double shifts, in order to cover up for the men who were involved firsthand in the battle. On the other side, Soviet women became more engaged with the battle, as many served as nurses but also as pilots, snipers, machine gunners, tank crew members and partisans. Sure, some women also worked in different industries, but their role within the war was much more inclusive compared to the one of the women in the US. </span>

Lunna [17]

Answer: Individualism, Equality, Informality, The Future, Change, Progress, Achievement, Action, Work, and Materialism, Directness, Assertiveness, and Time. It was easy to live together. The Indians helped the settlers by teaching them how to plant crops and survive on the land. But the Indians did not understand that the settlers were going to keep the land. This idea was foreign to the Indians.Their settlements and social groups were impermanent, and communal leadership (what little there was) was informal. After European contact, some Great Basin groups got horses and formed equestrian hunting and raiding bands that were similar to the ones we associate with the Great Plains natives.
