Jihad: What Everyone Needs to Know 2022
Jihad: What Everyone Needs to Know is a 2022 publication by Asma Afsaruddin, issued by Oxford University Press under its What Everyone Needs to Know series. The book examines the concept of jihad, distinguishing common, frequently violent interpretations from its wider Islamic tradition. It explores jihad’s scriptural, theological, moral, ethical, legal, and socio-political aspects, presenting a historically informed perspective. Afsaruddin analyzes these dimensions to help readers understand jihad's true meaning. In 2024, a Polish translation was released by Wydawnictwo Naukowe PWN.
