The Relationship between the Freedom Right and Offensive Jihad

One of the human rights that has been taken into account in most of the moral and legal schools is "the freedom right", according to which one cannot impose a belief on anyone. This right is also emphasized in a number of Quran verses, such as the verse of ‘‘La 'ikraha fi al-din’’. However, some argue that "freedom of opinion" is in conflict with the verdict of "offensive jihad". The present study, based on three points, has criticized the conflict between the freedom of opinion and offensive Jihad, which includes: 1. The incorrectness of considering the Islamic conquests in the analysis of offensive jihad as a touchstone; 2. Paying attention to removing the barriers to religious belief as the primary goal of offensive Jihad; 3. Independency of offensive jihad with compulsion in being religious. The research method is descriptive and analytical, and our findings show that since the goal of Islam from the order of offensive jihad is to eliminate the domination of the rulers of the people for the free admission of religion, and on the other hand, it leaves the audience free to maintain their religion, there is no doubt left for the conflict between "freedom of opinion" and the verdict of "offensive jihad".
