==Modern jihad==
At the start of the [[Anti-Soviet jihad]] the Chief Justice of Saudi Arabia Sheikh 'Abdullah bin Muhammad bin Humaid published an essay on jihad.<ref>https://archive.org/details/JihadInTheQuranAndSunnah </ref> It was included in the ''Noble Quran'' -- a modern, nine volume, English translation of the Quran with some commentary. Humaid writes that the call to jihad requires the support of the entire Muslim people. It involves the transformation of a religious community into a military machine.<ref>https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/10335/jihad-against-west#_ftnref6 </ref> Sheikh bin Humaid states:
<blockquote>
"And you will not find any organization past or present, religious or non-religious...(ordering) the whole nation to march forth and mobilize all of them into active military service as a single row for Jihad in Allah's Cause so as to make superior the Word of Allah...as you will find in the Islamic Religion and its teachings".
