Noble Quran 2:190 Footnote: Jihad is holy fighting in Allahs Cause with full force of numbers and weaponry. It is given the utmost importance in Islam and is one of its pillars. By Jihad Islam is established, Allahs Word is made superior (which means only Allah has the right to be worshiped), and Islam is propagated. By abandoning Jihad Islam is destroyed and Muslims fall into an inferior position; their honor is lost, their lands are stolen, their rule and authority vanish. Jihad is an obligatory duty in Islam on every Muslim. He who tries to escape from this duty, or does not fulfill this duty, dies as a hypocrite.
The passage itself can be found in two places. It is on page "39" ( my copy)of the Noble Quran translation by Muhammad Khan and distributed by King Fahd Complex for the Printing of the Holy QuranThe Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques. It is a footnote to Quran 2.190 and is designed to explain Jihad according to Allah as this is the first time the word is used, explaining the concept of jihad as it was taught and used at the time .
And it can be found on page 580 of the Islamic University of Medinas translation of Sahih al-Bukharis Hadith. There it opens Bukharis Book of Jihad.
In both cases, the Islamic scholars are condensing Allahs and Muhammads teachings on Jihad to a single paragraph.
