المستخلص: The present paper aims at exploring the concept of Jihad as represented by the Muslim woman writer Leila Aboulela in relation to the interpretation of the term by Islamist political parties such as Isis and Taliban, and the stereotypes assigned to it in Western media and Western thinking. Unfortunately, Islam’s position concerning Jihad has been distorted, misrepresented, and misappropriated for political and economic aims. Jihad has come to be equated with terrorism, barbarism, and violence. This paper attempts to deconstruct these stereotypes and unveil the real facade of this obligation in Islam; its meaning, rules, and aims as stated clearly in the teachings in the Quran and Sunna. The methodology of this paper is to apply the concept of hybridity as a positive stance which helps Aboulela to deconstruct the false representations allotted to Jihad and establish reconciliation between cultural disparities and present a counter image of Muslims to restore balance to their representation.
