Salaams,
What would come under this particular jihad?
How do we fight the evil of our own soul?

Many evils.
Just a word of warning to others posting - remember to not make your sins public.
"For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to our citizens 'as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone'" - David Cameron, UK Prime Minister. 13 May 2015.
anything that goes against Allah's command.
fighting them desires/passions for the sake of pleasing Allah.
Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary?
Yeah, thats a good point! Sometimes many people just forget, or they start ranting about their sins as though they have done nothing wrong...unaware they are creating a big whole for themselves.
And sometimes theres people that talk about their sins publicy, and say they will repent for it later on...but then continue the same sin the next day.
As far as I know, once you have truly repented for your sins it means you will never commit that sin again, and also you have to cry when you ask Allah for forgiveness of your sins.
Your own soul is nourished when you are kind; it is destroyed when you are cruel.
Would that be the same or similar to fighting your nafs?
Your own soul is nourished when you are kind; it is destroyed when you are cruel.
When did crying become a condition for forgiveness?
If you did something wrong, say you committed zina secretly, your parents found out, what will you do?
If you were truly sorry for committing the sin you would apologise, have the intention of never doing it again (and never do it again) and you would cry because of how sorry you are and the fact that you actually realised you were doing a mistake.
Its the same thing when your in front of Allah and your asking for his forgiveness. You reduce yourself to the lowest point that you automatically start crying because of how sorry you are.
I never said its a 'condition'...but I will find out.
Your own soul is nourished when you are kind; it is destroyed when you are cruel.
It's not a condition.
Your own soul is nourished when you are kind; it is destroyed when you are cruel.
Well I didn't say anything happens did I?
When I said 'you have to cry' I didn't mean you HAD to as an obligation. I meant it comes automatically when you are really sorry for what you did.
What's wrong with me highlighting that point? :?
Your own soul is nourished when you are kind; it is destroyed when you are cruel.
Say you want to do something wrong... what stops you from doing it? even better, how do you make yourself want to do good?
A side point: sometimes "we" probably need to focus on jihad al asghar too - it exists and is real. By not discussing it, it just allows others to get a free shot at spreading their views.

english please

jihad al asghar - the real jihad. war.

real jihad?
Yes, as opposed to metaphorical.
It cannot be ignored or belittled - the allowed levels of violence are mentioned in the qur'an and there are times when one must fight.
Sometimes people are too willing to write it off - which is not the case here, but it can be the case at times where people are afraid to discuss real jihad.

Sagheer/asghar means small/smallest. Whilst kabeer/akbar means big/biggest.
Yep - you learn that towards the beginning of Madinah book 1.
Akbar and Asghar are both ismul tafdil (if you know what that is).
This is not how you should speak around lay people.

Someone who has abit of Arabic knowledge would know what that is anyway.
a lot of us don't :/
"How many people find fault in what they're reading and the fault is in their own understanding" Al Mutanabbi
Then ignore that last bit.
Its when you use exaggeration in comparison to others.
So kabeer means big, akbar means biggest. If you were wondering, akbar is singular and masculine.
Whether you hide your faults from the parents Allah knows everything. My point I was putting forward when I used that example is that if your sorry for something you did, you would cry and it would be automatic. Whether alone or in front of the parents.
(I guess there might be some people who don't , I don't know)But this is how true repentance is shown. Nots not a matter of being an emotional person or not, in front of Allah who will say they are NOT emotional?
Your own soul is nourished when you are kind; it is destroyed when you are cruel.
Nope. Kabeer is masculine but not plural, kibaar is its plural form.
Oi you lot, stop discussingism tafdeel on here, I created "learnign arabic" for a reason.
BUt...
OCean?!?! you study Arabic?!?!
edit: I havent got the ability to see into people's heart [unmashaAllah] hence i cannot assume that MuslimBro was showing off.
Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary?
I wasn't. Everything I say has to be showing off :roll:
since when? i just said that now...
Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary?
You must have the power of seeing into people's hearts to see that they're showing off. MashaAllah.
fine. I'll edit.
Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary?
LOOOOOOOOL.
P.S "sarcasm is the lowest form of wit"

likkeyy but he has a point, even though the sarcasm makes me feel like throwing his point in his face...
