Islam Chapter Essay

Instructions These essays are very important elements of this online class. They practically replace the attendance and participation grades of regular, in-person classes and all together will account for 70% of your final grade. They are graded on the accuracy of information, content, adding personality and writing skill (grammar, spelling, punctuation - look for the "Grading Rubric" in the Canvas files). Your answers do not have to be lengthy: in fact, I prefer a well-written, short and to the point , i.e. no longer than 500 words essay, but it has to be meaningful and it needs to clearly connect to the textbook. You can also include information learned from the videos available on Canvas or any other source, as long as you reference it clearly. Note well: I have no patience for cheating and/or plagiarism. Please answer ONE of the following questions 4. Discuss the textbook definition of Jihad and how it connects to the Five Pillars. Do you think this term has been misused in our present geopolitical environment?
