Abstract

International relations in Islam have been discussed in detail by the Holy Quran and Sunnah of Holy Prophet (ﷺ). These relations may be in peace time or hostile in nature. The international law in Islam is known as Siyar, which is plural of Seerat i.e. conduct, the conduct of head of Islamic state in the international relations. The life and sayings of Holy Prophet (ﷺ) are the best example for the Muslims and there have been numerous ahadis of Prophet (ﷺ) which provide guidelines for the rulers, as well as, soldiers taking part in the actual warfare. This research article will provide a brief overview of different categories of Ahdis pertaining to jihad in Sahih Bokhari. There have been ten categories of Ahadis in this regard, which not only clarify the concept of jihad but also different principles and situations in this regard. Each of these will be elaborated in bit detail to explain the position in this regard.
