Detailed explanation-1: -The Qur’an on Jihad Fight in the way of Allah against those who fight against you, but begin not hostilities. Lo! Allah loveth not aggressors. To those against whom war is made, permission is given (to fight), because they are wronged; -and verily, Allah is most powerful for their aid.
Detailed explanation-2: -On this theory, the use of force is allowed in self-defence; defending Muslims who are oppressed but unable to defend themselves; using force to prevent a humanitarian catastrophe, and allowing a Muslim ruler to use force against rebellion.
Detailed explanation-3: -Defensive jihad, according to most Islamic exegetes is when the kuffar, the infidels in Dar al-Harb, attack the Muslims, the Muslim lands, or gain control of a Muslim country, and force them into a defensive position of war.
Detailed explanation-4: -Anas there are four types of jihad: jihad with one’s heart (bil-qalb), with one’s tongue (bil-lisan), with one’s hand (bil-yad), and with a sword (bil-sayf). 272 He explains that a jihad with the heart means to defeat the shaytan (devil) and oppress one’s lust and bestial desires.
