Jihad is built on two main pillars. Patience which reveals bravery of the heart, and generosity, by which one spends ones wealth and spirit. Yet, the sacrifice of one’s person is the greatest generosity, and in the sahih hadith, reported by Ahmad: “Iman is patience and generosity”. Ibn Taymiyah says: “the amendment of the children of Adam in their religion and worldy affairs would be not complete without bravery and generosity. And Allah has made it clear that whoever turned away from Jihad by the person, that He would replace them with a people who would perform it. “If you march not forth, He will punish you with a painful torment and will replace you with another people, and you cannot harm Him at all, and Allah is able to do all things” From Defense of the Muslim Lands, the First obligation After Iman by Dr. Abdullah Azzam (may Allah accept him as Shaheed)
