I Am Enjoying Being A Muslim

Studying is Jihad.

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:
"If anyone travels in a road in search of knowledge, God will cause him to travel on one of the roads of Paradise."

What is Jihad?
Smiling in tough moments is Jihad. Keeping patience in hard times is Jihad. Struggling for good deeds is Jihad. Taking care of old parents in a loving way is Jihad. Forgiving is Jihad. Jihad is not what the media promotes, but what the Quran says, to Strive and to Struggle.

You want a real Jihad?
Smile to your parents when you come home. Pray on time. Control your tongue, your eyes, and your thoughts.
Declare your Jihad on thirteen enemies you cannot see - egosim, arrogance, conceit, selfishness, greed, lust, intolerance, anger, lying, cheating, gossiping, and slandering. If you can master and destroy them, then you will be ready to fight the enemy you can see.

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:
"The real Jihad is to battle your own soul, to fight the evil within yourself."

@IstillmissEp: everything was good until you mixed with politics . What does Hillary has to do with a Muslim trying to do proselytism and she failed? because you and me agree on this : Jihad is code for hate and kill.
When people start mixing people and circumstances and characters , is when we look silly .
Let's stay in this debate on what you and me are trying to convey: Try your Quran proselytism somewhere else , we do not buy into it .
The other day we can debate US politics .
