About
Jihad is often assumed to refer to armed combat and Muslim martyrdom is understood to be invariably of the military kind. By canvassing a more diverse range of texts - Qur'an, tafsir, hadith, edifying and hortatory literature — this book recuperates a more nuanced and multifaceted understanding of both jihad and martyrdom through time.
