Abstract :First paragraph: Jihād – striving or fighting "in the path of God” – and its aims, legitimation, and practices are topics that in the course of history occupied the minds of Muslims and non-Muslims time and again. The resurgence of jihād since the 1980s has again aroused broad interest in the topic and led to a wave of publications, including studies that deal with the historical aspects of the phenomenon.Keywords : Sunni Jihad Ideology, Crusader Period, Ibn ʿAsākir of Damascus
