Etymology

The word Harkat-ul-Jihad-e-Islami comes from Urdu and Arabic parts: Harkat means 'movement', Jihad means 'struggle' and is sometimes called 'holy war', and Islami means 'Islamic', while ul and e work like 'of' in English. So the name literally says 'movement of Islamic struggle', which explains why it is the name of a group that seeks to fight for an Islamic cause.
