The Greatest Jihad
Question:

Is JIhad in the way of Allaah the same level regardless of whether it is with ones life, wealth, or supplication, even if somebody is capable of the type that involves one's life?
Answer:

There are different kinds of Jihad - with one's self, wealth, supplication, teaching, giving guidance, or helping others in good in any form. The highest form of Jihad, however, is with one's life; then comes Jihad with one's wealth and Jihad with teaching and guidance, and in this way Da'wah is a form of Jihad, but Jihad with one's life is the highest form.
