ELI5: What is jihad.
gpt
The literal meaning of Jihad is struggle or effort, and it means much more than holy war.
Muslims use the word Jihad to describe three different kinds of struggle:
1) A struggle to live as a good Muslim
2) A struggle to build a good Islamic society
3) A holy war to defend Islam.
