Mawdudi’s theory of Jihad and explanation of different terms in a peculiar style,
especially his notion of Islam as a revolutionary system and Muslims as
members of the revolutionary party are in fact aimed at paving ground for his
theory of reformative wars—the most innovative and contentious idea of
Mawdudi in the discourse on Jihad. Mawdudi seems to have evolved this theory
in an attempt to reconcile the theoretical discussion on aggression (muharabah)
as jus ad bellum (‘illat al-qital) in Islam and the actual wars of the prophet
(peace be on him) and his companions (may Allah be pleased with them). In
other words, this is the dilemma faced by everyone who studies Figh and tries
to reconcile it with the Sirah. The paper raises another aspect of the discussion
as well. It claims that prevalent political scenario in the world might have played
a role in helping Mawdudi refine his thoughts on the issue of Muslihana Jang.
