What is the definition of jihad?
The literal meaning is "struggle." This can be interpreted as internal examination to make oneself more righteous (so-called "greater jihad") or as taking up arms to kill people who don't believe as oneself does ("lesser jihad"). As you might guess, these rather different meanings afford the opportunity for much accidental -- and deliberate -- confusion. One way to get perspective is to know that "jihad" has the same two connotations as "crusade." Today in the West, "crusade" almost always means some noble struggle against a social evil, as "Crusade Against Illiteracy," but to imams and ayatollahs in the Middle East, it means "kill some Muslims," as it did in the Eleventh Century.
When did the first crusade start?
The First Crusade took place in 1096 to 1099.
Are the meanings of jihad and crusade the same today as they were prior in the 11th century?
The meanings of jihad and crusade have evolved significantly since the 11th century. In the 11th century, jihad primarily referred to a struggle or effort in the name of Islam, which could be spiritual, moral, or military, while crusades were military campaigns initiated by Christians to reclaim the Holy Land. Today, jihad is often associated with a broader range of meanings, including personal spiritual struggle, and can sometimes be co-opted for militant agendas. Similarly, the term crusade has taken on a more metaphorical meaning, often used to describe any vigorous campaign for a cause, losing much of its original religious and military connotation.
