The meaning of the word is independent  of the nature of the invested efforts or the sought goal. Contrary to common belief, the word “jihad” does not necessarily  imply any violent effort, let alone “war” and such instances of extreme  violence. It is a general term that can mean violent as well as peaceful  actions, depending on the context in which it is used, as we shall  indeed see later. Similarly, “jihad” as a generic word can be used even  when the sought goals are not Islamic, i.e. in non-religious contexts. The Qur’an uses the verb of “jihad” in its generic meaning of  “exerting the best efforts against something” in the following two  verses:  And We have enjoined on man goodness to parents, but if they jahadaka  (do jihad against you) to make you associate [a god] with Me, of which  you have no knowledge [being a god], do not obey them. To Me is your  return [O people!], so I shall inform you of your past deeds (29.8). And We have enjoined on man to be good to his parents; his mother  bears him in weakness upon weakness, and his weaning is in two years;  and that [you must] be grateful to Me and to both your parents. To Me is  the eventual coming (31.14). And if they jahadaka  (do jihad against you) to make you associate [a god] with Me, of which  you have no knowledge [being a god], do not obey them, but keep company  with them in this world kindly; and follow the way of he who turns to  Me. Then to Me is your [O people!] return, then I shall inform you of  your past deeds (31.15). Jihad in the verses above refers to actions taken by non-Muslim  parents against their Muslim offspring to force them to worship other  than Allah. This goal goes against the message of Islam which teaches  the oneness of God, Allah; obviously this kind of jihad is not Islamic.  The verses above also confirm the already mentioned fact that jihad is  not necessarily an act of violence. It is worth noting that the verses above command the Muslims to  remain kind and caring toward their parents, but to resist any attempt  by the latter to force them to give up the Islamic tenet of monotheism  in favor of some polytheistic belief.</blockquote>
