Ibn Bazz: The best form of Jihad



The best form of Jihad 
Does Jihad in the Cause of Allah have one rank whether it is physical, financial, or just spiritual (through supplication) Jihad, especially one a person can perform physical Jihad and take part in fight? 
A: 
Jihad has several types: Jihad may be physical by one’s self; financial by one's wealth; spiritual by making Du`a’; or educational by education, guiding, and
