A religious war against infidels or Mohammedan heretics; also, any bitter war or crusade for a principle or belief. [Their] courage in war . . . had not, like that of the Mohammedan dervishes of the Sudan, or of Mohammedans anywhere engaged in a jehad, a religious motive and the promise of future bliss behind it. James Bryce.

Does every muslim compete in jihad?
First, we need to define Jihad. Jihad is a tenet of Islam and a religious duty to strive in the way of God. There are two general ways to do this, the Greater Jihad and the Lesser Jihad. The Greater Jihad is an introspective journey to conquer your internal demons and follow the Divine Laws more closely than previously; this kind of jihad should be entirely peaceful. The Lesser Jihad refers to conflicts and confrontations between Muslims and Non-Muslims or other Muslims, which often erupt in war, but can also be performed through non-violent protests, debate, and advocacy. It is the Lesser Jihad which is often cast as a Holy War.Now. the term "compete in jihad" does not make sense. If the question is asking if every Muslim participates in jihad, the answer is "No"; there is no group of people who uniformly do one set of things. However, most Muslims try to participate in jihad, but involvement in Greater Jihad (self-reflection) is far more common than Lesser Jihad (striving to change the world), and involvement in peaceful Lesser Jihad (advocacy and protests) is far more common than violent Lesser Jihad (holy war).
Is holy war is an accurate translation of the lslamic term jihad?
My Dear, 'Holy War' is NOT an accurate translation of the Islamic term Jihad. because; > the Oxford dictionary meaning of the term 'Jihad' is 'to strive' or 'to struggle' or 'to-do-your-best-efforts', or 'to try hard' > nowhere you can find its meaning as 'War' > in Arabic language the word 'Jihad' is derived from another Arabic word 'Juhud' which means 'continuous struggle', > it should also be clear that Jihad has positive meaning and there is no negative meaning, e.g in all the above meanings are positive. But unfortunately, the media is propagating/using this word in a negative sense, > therefore, if a student is striving to be a good student by studying hard, then it simply means that he is doing Jihad, > similarly, if a social worker is continuously struggling to provide social service to humanity in the name of Allah, then he is doing Jihad, > if a Muslim is trying to be a good Muslim by acting on the golden principles of Islam, then he is also doing Jihad, in this sense, if someone (not necessarily the Muslims) is struggling to eradicate the antisocial elements/evils prevailing in any society (be its European society, Christan's society or Hindu society etc) then s/he is also doing Jihad.
