Reclaiming Jihad: A Qur’anic Critique of Terrorism by ElSayed Amin is a scholarly work that critiques the misinterpretation of jihad as a justification for terrorism. It argues against extremist readings of the Qur’an by analyzing the concept of jihad in its historical and scriptural context, distinguishing it from modern terrorism. The book also explores the related Qur’anic concepts of fasad (corruption) and hirabah (brigandage) to establish legal proscriptions against terrorism and provides a framework that rejects indiscriminate violence
