the just war
Explanation:
справедливая война
Since Islam imposed on the faithful the duty to work for the ultimate establishment of dar al-Islam throughout the world, there existed—logically—a state of war between the territories. It was similar to the Christian concept of the ***helium justum***, the "just war," which permitted war for such "good" causes as conversion of the pagans. And in Islam the political instrument through which the faithful could discharge this obligation was the jihad: the exertion of power, either by peaceful or violent means, to achieve ultimately a religious purpose.
