==Defensive Fighting Permitted==
==Defensive Fighting Mandated==


Jihad is not only offensive in nature, expanding the realm of Islam. Muslims are also commanded by the Qur'an to fight to defend the religion (and the Islamic State) from outside aggressors, and this too constitutes the holy duty of jihad.

Allah will reward those Muslims who die while waging Jihad.
{{Quote|{{Quran|22|58}}|Those who leave their homes in the cause of Allah, and are then slain or die,- On them will Allah bestow verily a goodly Provision: Truly Allah is He Who bestows the best provision.}}
==Defensive Fighting Mandated==
These Islamic texts mandate that Muslims defend themselves if they or their fellow Muslims are being attacked.
A few months after Muhammad gave permission to the Muslims to defend themselves from attacks, Muhammad made defensive fighting obligatory for all able Muslims. These verses abrogated the previous verses that only gave permission, but did not mandate, that Muslims are to fight in self defense; new commands which themselves would later be abrogated by even newer commands that ordered [[Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Offensive Fighting Mandated|Muslims to attack and subdue]] all non-Muslims ([[Kafir|Kuffar]]).
At this stage Muhammad did not consider the Jews to be his enemies since he was still expecting them to embrace him as their prophet, but the Jews who did not accept him as a prophet would later become Muhammad's enemies. Starting with the Battle of Uhud the hypocrites, who were Muslim only in name and who did not actually believe in Muhammad, started becoming Muhammad's enemies.
===Qur'an===
If attacked then Muslims are to fight against their attackers until the attackers desist from fighting, stop persecuting Muslims and Islam to be established.
