mr. farid patel, what you read and interpret is your inlook and outlook. but records says (not as you say misrepresentation) that jihad is related to terrorism. Do hindus, buddists, christians need jihad. why should you be so insecure. your status in india atleast is better than hindus. We shall endeavour to change the name from hindustan to mushinstan or say muhindia just to safeguard your insecurity. please religion need not make their disciples insecure. we all are a part of society and should accept all. religion is a driving force which finally culminates in overall strengthy. maybe it is just a temporary identity for a human being. go and ask what the muslims in china or in myanmar have to say about practising jihad a la terrorism. sorry I do not misrepresent the word!!! sandy johannesburg
