In the first half of the 19th century, the Algerian Sufi military leader Emir Abdelkader fought against the Napoleon III's forces and Shamil, the Imam of Dagestan fought Imperial Russia–both of these leaders eventually surrendered.[8] As Ottoman and Mughal power waned, the teachings of Abd al-Aziz — a Naqshbandi scholar in India — influenced the groups involved in the Sepoy Mutiny of 1857 against British rule in India.[1][9]
Britain's suppression of the uprising was brutal leading to Sayyid Ahmed Khan's late 19th century argument that violent jihad was only required when Muslims were in a strong position. Other influential writers of this period include Syeed Ameer Ali, whose Spirit of Islam (1891) is a well known apologetic text,[10] and Mawdudi, who argued that Muslims were obliged to fight for a political order governed by Islam.[1]. Similar writings were published in other regions, particularly in Egypt where Mahmud Shaltut published a treaty on the Quranic "sword verses"—specifically he sought to shift the emphasis from early tensions between Mohammed's followers and the Quarashi to develop a theory of defensive warfare consistent with newly developing principles of international law. On the other hand, Hasan-al Banna, showed thinking more in line with Mawdudi's writings. Al-Banna—who went on to found the Muslim Brotherhood—argued that the purpose of jihad was to establish an Islamic government.[1]
When the Italo-Turkish War broke out in 1912 the Senussis, who had some measure of independence in the Ottoman-ruled Libyan Desert, sided with the Ottomans. During the First World War, in August 1914, most of the area was under French and Italian rule and Sultan Mehmed V declared jihad in October 1914.[11]
Wahhabism
Wahhabism is a sect of Islam that has been influential in the development of modern jihadist ideology. As early as 1830, the Muslim population of Algeria resisted French colonialism, but some regions, particularly Arabia and West Africa experienced not only jihad against foreign occupiers, but "purification jihads" as well. This latter form of jihad influenced the development of jihadist ideology through the 20th century which often invoked the theme of a "purer" form of Islam.[12]
The founder of Wahhabi Islam, Ibn Abd al-Wahhab, was born in Najd–some distance from the prosperous cultural centers of the 18th century Muslim world. The customs and traditions of the Arabian peninsula included Sufi practices that were not accepted by Orthodox Islam.[13] Al-Wahhab taught that the Sufi and Shi'a branches of Islam were heretical. Some scholars believe the Wahhabi doctrine of takfir, or the denouncing of other Muslims as infidels, marks a significant divergence from earlier Islamic tradition. In 1746, Ibn Saud declared a jihad against all other Muslims; they destroyed Karbala in 1802, and during the intermittant occupations of Mecca and Medina between 1803 and 1813, they demolished most of the shrines of the Prophet Muhammad and his Companions, including the monument at the tomb of Zayd ibn al-Khattab.[14] The destruction of the tomb is a symbolic representation of Wahhabi intolerence for any practices they consider to be incompatible with what they call tawhid — or the "oneness" of God — in this case, even the tombs of heroic figures from Islam's early history were a threat to the faithful because they could serve as objects of veneration.[15]
Ibn Taymiyya (b. 1262 - d. 1328) is the medieval Islamic thinker who scholars believe had the most significant influence on 20th century jihadist ideology but not all scholars agree about the extent of his influence on Ibn Abd-Wahhab.[15] Robert Rabil
Muslim Brotherhood
Following the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire, the Caliphate was formally abolished in 1924. The end of the Caliphate heralded a great debate in Egypt that influenced the ideology of Muslim Brotherhood founder Hasan al-Banna.[16] For a time, the goals of the Pan-Arabist and Pan-Islamist movements were aligned: unification of the Arab world, and fighting the forces of colonialism and sectarianism.[17] However, in later years, the Muslim Brotherhood supported pan-Islamism in opposition to Arab nationalism.[16] In 1954, the Brotherhood attempted to assassinate Egypt's nationalist president Gamal Abdel Nasser, leading to a government crackdown against the organization.[18]
Sayyid Qutb, who was born in Asyut in 1906, joined the Brotherhood in 1951. Writing in the 1950s, Qutb began to develop the foundations of modern political Islam as a response to the "nationalist and chauvinistic ideologies that have appeared in modern times".[19] The ideologues of this era considered both the West and the Soviet Union "degenerate".[19] Qutb wrote that under Islamic law "all men become free from the servitude of some men to others".[19] In the view of Qutb and his contemporaries the ideologies of democracy, secular nationalism and communism were all tantamount to the "humiliation of the common man" at the hands of Western and foreign governments. These ideas inspired generations of future jihadists.[20]
In the tract On Jihad, founder al-Banna warned readers against "the widespread belief among many Muslims" that struggles of the heart were more demanding than struggles with a sword, and called on Egyptians to prepare for jihad against the British,[21] (making him the first influential scholar since the 1857 India uprising to call for jihad of the sword).[22] The Brotherood also called for jihad against the new Jewish state of Israel in the 1940s.[23]
Global jihad
Emerging in the second half of the 20th century, Islamic revivalism is a polycentric transnational ideology.[17] The ideological development of Islamic revival was influenced by fall of the Ottoman Caliphate in 1924, subsequent colonial rule, and the creation of the State of Israel in 1948.[18] Some scholars have written that Pan-Arabist national unity was overtaken by sectarianism in the wake of the Arabs' defeat in 1967 Arab-Israeli War, marking the end of post-colonial secular Arabism. The Islamic Revival ideology that emerged from this was a consequence of the failures of secular nationalist regimes.[24]
The fall of Shah Pahlavi in Iran, the assassination of Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, and the Grand Mosque seizure in Saudi Arabia are among the events that have been formative in the 20th century understanding of "radical Islam".[17] Between the 1970s and mid-1990s jihadist thought was dominated by themes of replacing secular "apostate" rulers with Islamist governments. [25] Radical Islamist groups like Egyptian Jihad and al-Jama'a al-Islamiyya splintered from the mainstream Muslim Brotherhood.[24] and many Islamist groups appeared, being strongly influenced by the social frustrations following the economic crises of the 1970s and 1980s.[26]
According to Rudolph Peters and Natana J. DeLong-Bas, the new "fundamentalist" movement brought a reinterpretation of Islam and their own writings on jihad. These writings tended to be less interested and involved with legal arguments, what the different of schools of Islamic law had to say, or in solutions for all potential situations. "They emphasize more the moral justifications and the underlying ethical values of the rules, than the detailed elaboration of those rules." They also tended to ignore the distinction between Greater and Lesser jihad because it distracted Muslims "from the development of the combative spirit they believe is required to rid the Islamic world of Western influences".[27][28]
Middle East
Saudi Arabia began to support pan-Islamism in the 1960s to counter the rising popularity of Nasser's pan-Arabism in Egypt (also called Arab Socialism). King Faisal developed closer relations with the Muslim Brotherhood, who denounced Nasser's secularism. Close relations between the Brotherhood and Saudi Arabia endured even after Nasser's death in 1970. It was in the universities of Saudi Arabia that the intersection of Wahhabi ideology and the Muslim Brotherhood's brand of political Islam intersected gave rise to the creation of a political Salafist faction called Sahwah (Islamic Awakening).[13] The summer before the October War (Yom Kippur War) broke out in 1973, Islamic Associations called Gamaat Islamiya summer camps were organized to initiate members into a "pure Islamic life" — these groups eventually came to dominate Islamist discourse in Arab universities.[29] Under the leadership of Shukri Mustafa, the radical group Takfir wal-Hijra popularized the term takfiri meaning "one who excommunicates other Muslims". Shukri pushed an extreme interpretation of Qutbianjahiliyyah–his followers were the only true Muslims. He considered any Muslims outside his organization kafir unbelievers and pronounced takfir on them. Shukri was executed in 1977 after the group kidnapped and executed the Al-Azhar scholar Husayn al-Dhahabi. On month after the trial, Egyptian President Anwar Sadat travelled to Jerusalem to make peace with Israel.[29]
After 1977, the Egyptian Islamist movement was driven underground and coalesced under the leadership of Muhammad abd-al-Salam Faraj, author of Al Farida al Ghaiba (Jihad, the Neglected Duty). Faraj quotes extensively from Ibn Taymiyya to argue that he should replace Sadat. He calls Sadat an "apostate of Islam fed at the tables of imperialism and Zionism" and declares jihad against him. Sadat was assassinated in 1981 not long after assassinated soon after Al Farida al Ghaiba was written.<name=kepel />[30] The text
Some members of the radical movement disagreed over whether the jihadist movement should target Israel or Sadat's regime.
Also influential was Egyptian While Qutb felt that jihad was a proclamation of "liberation for humanity", Faraj stressed that jihad would enable Muslims to rule the world and to reestablish the caliphate.[31] He emphasized the importance of fighting the "near enemy"—Muslim rulers he believed to be apostates, such as the president of Egypt, Anwar Sadat, whom his group assassinated—rather than the traditional enemy, Israel. Faraj believed that if Muslims followed their duty and waged jihad, ultimately supernatural divine intervention would provide the victory. Faraj included deceiving the enemy, lying to him, attacking by night (even if it leads to accidentally killing innocents), and felling and burning trees of the infidel, as Islamically legitimate methods of fighting.[32][33] Faraj was executed in 1982 for his part in the assassination of Egyptian president Anwar Sadat.
Ayman Zawahiri, the founder of Egyptian Jihad, argued that the rule of Shari'a can only be restored to the Muslim world through violence.[24]
Central Asia
The Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan, the Islamic Renaissance Party of Tajikistan and Hizb ut-Tahrir are examples of the numerous Islamist organizations that have emerged in Central Asia. At a meeting of the World Economic Forum in 2000 Askar Akaev, the president of Kyrgyzstan said that the spread of religious extremism throughout Central Asia by foreign terrorists trained in Afghanistan posed a major threat to the region's stability and security. Similar comments were made by Kazakh prime minister Kasymzhomart Tokayev).[20]
Hizb ut-Tahrir is an organization that is based in the United Kingdom and Jordan.[20]
By the early 1970s several thinkers had emerged in Uzbekistan that might be considered "radical". Among these were Muhammad Sadik Muhammad Yusuf, Rahmatullah Alloma and Abduvali Qori.[34]
Sayyed Imam Al-Sharif was born in Beni Suef, near Cairo, in 1950. He was a prominent figure in the jihadi community and had published writings about jihad and his experiences during the Afghan jihad. He met Ayman al-Zawahiri in 1968 and though he did not join Zawahiri's Islamist organization, he was suspected of involvement in Sadat's assassination. Both Zawahiri and al-Sharif fled to Pakistan, though al-Sharif was eventually exonerated. According to al-Sharif's account of the events that unfolded in Afghanistan, published in a 2008 interview with Al-Hayat, he accepted an informal position with Zawahiri's group to advise Egyptian jihadis in Afghanistan on shariah-related matters. This account seems to contradict his position in his contemporary work The Essential Guide for Preparation [for the Jihad]. Written in Peshawar in 1988, this guide was used in Al-Qaeda's training camps and reportedly emphasized "a militant view for Muslim revitalization". He broke ties with Zawahiri after a dispute over his second book, and moved to Yemen. After 9/11 he was arrested and is currently serving a life sentence in Egypt. In 2007, he wrote the Document of Right Guidance for Jihad Activity in Egypt and the World which was published in Al-Jarida and Al-Masry Al-Youm.[35]
Criticsm
Sudanese law professor Abdullahi Ahmed An-Na'im has written that "a return to precolonial ideas and systems is simply not an option, and any change and adaptation of the present system can be realized only through the concepts and institutions of this local and global postcolonial reality".[36] Khaled Abou El Fadl, a scholar of Islamic jurisprudence from Egypt and Kuwait, has warned about a "crisis of authority" that has led to the rise of "puritanical" interpretations of Islam that are incompatible with Islam's historical pluralistic traditions.[37] Yusuf al-Qaradawi, a traditionalist, has written that "an extremist holds all people—except those in his group—to be kuffar [those who have rejected the faith]". Qaradawi relies on numerous hadith to show that Muhammad condemned excess and extremism—in particular, he points to a hadith where Muhammad shortens the length of prayer so it would not impose too heavy a burden others. He has said that the militant movement within Islam has overburdened other believers with its rigid interpretations. [35]
20th century

Qutb
The highly influential Muslim Brotherhood leader, Sayyid Qutb, preached in his book Milestones that jihad, `is not a temporary phase but a permanent war ... Jihad for freedom cannot cease until the Satanic forces are put to an end and the religion is purified for God in toto.`[38][39] Like Ibn Taymiyya, Qutb focused on martyrdom and jihad, but he added the theme of the treachery and enmity towards Islam of Christians and especially Jews. If non-Muslims were waging a "war against Islam", jihad against them was not offensive but defensive. He also insisted that Christians and Jews were mushrikeen (not monotheists) because (he alleged) gave their priests or rabbis "authority to make laws, obeying laws which were made by them [and] not permitted by God" and "obedience to laws and judgments is a sort of worship".[40][41]
Azzam
In the 1980s the Muslim Brotherhood cleric Abdullah Azzam, argued for a broader interpretation of who it was permissible to kill in jihad, an interpretation that some think may have influenced some of his students, including Osama bin Laden.[42] A charismatic speaker, Azzam traveled to dozens of cities in Europe and North American to encourage support for jihad in Afghanistan. He inspired young Muslims with stories of miraculous deeds during jihad—mujahideen who defeated vast columns of Soviet troops virtually single-handed, who had been run over by tanks but survived, who were shot but unscathed by bullets. Angels were witnessed riding into battle on horseback, and falling bombs were intercepted by birds, which raced ahead of the jets to form a protective canopy over the warriors.[43]
In Afghanistan, Azzam set up a "services office" for foreign fighters and with support from his former student Osama bin Laden and Saudi charities, foreign mujahideed or would-be mujahideen were provided for. Between 1982 and 1992 an estimated 35,000 individual Muslim volunteers went to Afghanistan to fight the Soviets and their Afghan regime. Thousands more attended frontier schools teeming with former and future fighters.[44] Saudi Arabia and the other conservative Gulf monarchies also provided considerable financial support to the jihad—$600 million a year by 1982.[45] CIA also funded Azzam's Maktab al-Khidamat[46] and others via Operation Cyclone. Azzam saw Afghanistan as the beginning of a jihad to repel unbelievers from many countries—the southern Soviet Republics of Central Asia, Bosnia, the Philippines, Kashmir, Somalia, Eritrea, Spain, and especially his home country of Palestine.[47] The defeat of the Soviets in Afghanistan is said to have "amplified the jihadist tendency from a fringe phenomenon to a major force in the Muslim world.[44] Azzam was assissinated in November 1989.
Having tasted victory in Afghanistan, many of the thousands of fighters returned to their home country such as Egypt, Algeria, Kashmir or to places like Bosnia to continue jihad. Not all the former fighters agreed with Azzam's chioice of targets but former Afghan fighters led or participated in serious insurgencies in Egypt, Algeria, Kashmir, Somalia in the 1990s and later creating a "transnational jihadist stream."[48]
Martyrdom
Historically, even in early calls for violent jihad, the concept of martyrdom has not included suicide. In 1988, Fathi Shiqaqi the leader of Palestinian Islamic Jihad said "martyrdom acts" against non-believers was justified in Islam. This is the version of jihad that Al Qaeda relied on when creating its network.Cite error: A <ref>

In February 1998, Osama bin Laden put a "Declaration of the World Islamic Front for Jihad against the Jews and the Crusaders" in the Al-Quds al-Arabi newspaper.[51]
In 2012, Muslim Brotherhood leader Mohammed Badie also declared jihad "to save Jerusalem from the usurpers and to [liberate] Palestine from the claws of occupation ... " [52][53]
