Giles, Esquire, then Deputy Commissioner of that district, to prepare a Note on the Baloch and Birahoi tribes, showing their tribal connections and the feuds existing between their various branches, and other details. Accordingly, I prepared a Note on these two tribes and submitted it to him in May 1890. The Note was revised by me at the direction of C. E. S. Steele, Esquire, when he became Deputy Commissioner of the above district, and a copy of it was furnished to him. It was revised a third time in August 1895, and a copy was submitted to H. C. Mules, Esquire, after he took charge of the district, and at my request the revised Note was printed at the Commissioner-in-Sindh’s Press in 1896, and copies of it were supplied to all the District and Divisional officers. -

Jihad of the Pen: a Practitioners Guide to Conducting Effective Influence Operations in an Insurgency
SMALL WARS JOURNAL smallwarsjournal.com Jihad of the Pen: A Practitioners Guide to Conducting Effective Influence Operations in an Insurgency Special to the Small Wars Journal By Colonel G. L. Lamborn, USAR (Ret.) February 2010 Dedication This small work is dedicated to all those who use the power of their minds guided by courage, humility, resourcefulness and compassion to achieve a better world in which the forces of tyranny, hatred, fanaticism, and ignorance are defeated. Note to the Reader In reading this small work, the practitioner must keep in mind the following. In Islam, the concept of “jihad” (the Arabic word means “struggle”) consists of two aspects. The Lesser Jihad – with which the world is unfortunately somewhat familiar – is defined as “armed resistance in defense of the faith and the Believers,”—but only under prescribed conditions and under properly authorized leadership. What most non-Muslims do not know is that in Islam the Greater Jihad is the struggle that takes place inwardly – within each soul and person. It is a great struggle to conquer one’s own evil and base desires, and triumph over one’s own ignorance, barbarity and spiritual darkness. The Greater Jihad is Islam’s great challenge to build a better world, one Believer at a time. Unfortunately, thanks to the cruel deeds of a relatively small number of extremists, the newspaper version of “jihad” has imprinted only a warped definition of the Lesser Jihad as meaning torture, murder, fanaticism, hatred, and xenophobia. I chose the title “Jihad of the Pen” partly because the Prophet had once said: “The ink of the scholar is more sacred than the blood of the martyr.” In part, the title also derives from my fervent belief that the jihad of the pen is the battle all people must wage against ignorance everywhere. -
