In the days of the Prophet and in the years immediately following, this Holy War was directed against pagans and idolaters -- the polytheists -- and was undertaken in defence of the realm of Islam. With the passage of centuries the sense of jihad was obscured and lost. On numerous occasions jihad, when declared by a leader in a position of authority, was disregarded or ignored..The Faith of the Arabian Prophet must never be designated as Muhammadanism. It is Islam: the religion of submission to the Will of God, and it was not imposed by the sword. Surah ii, 257 declares: No compulsion is there in religion. (H.M. Balyuzi, Muhammad and the Course of Islam)
