Abstract
The Holy Quran has once mentioned in verse 52 of Surah al-Furqān the meaning of the Jahad-e-Kabir. Given the characteristics of this type of jihad in the Qur'an, narratives and interpretative statements, the Jahad-e-Kabir is a comprehensive package of civilian activities to confront the enemy.
In political science, the concept of Soft Power is also called, which means using non-hard tools at the right time and intangibles that are used against the opposite group.
The similarity of the use of civilian tools in two categories of Jahad-e-Kabir and Soft Power is to reconcile the homogeneity and conformity of these two concepts, but with the examination and the expression of their differences, it seems to be at most to match the similarity of the Jahad-e-Kabir with Soft Power. Differences, including the following: the reliance of Soft Power on hard power. While the Jahad-e-Kabir does not have such support, the use of Soft Power in damaging the other side while the Jahad-e-Kabir is defensive, deterrent and immune.
To achieve these results, a comparative research method has been used between two concepts and an interdisciplinary research method using library resources.
