If you call the writings of Abul A'la Maududi "Jihadi literature" than may Ma Saraswati help you. He was a modernizer of Islamic thought and an Islamic revivalist. Which is the opposite of jihadist philosophy.
"He also learned English and German to study, intensively, Western philosophy, sociology, and history for full five years: he eventually came up to the conclusion that "ulama' in the past did not endeavor to discover the causes of Europe's rise, and he offered a long list of philosophers whose scholarship had made Europe a world power: Fichte, Hegel, Comte, Mill, Turgot, Adam Smith, Malthus, Rousseau, Voltaire, Montesquieu, Darwin, Goethe, and Herder, among others. Comparing their contribution to that of Muslims, he concluded that the latter did not reach even 1 percent."

I mean - criticizing people is fine, but at least be accurate. Not all Muslims are mad propagators of Jihadist philosophy.
However - I do understand that today's incumbent BJP and RSS administration in India does not like his writings (characterizes them as extremist) and even forced Aligarh Muslim University recently to drop his writings from the syllabus. So be it.

No matter what Islamic literature it is. It promotes ignorance and radicalism including Quran. Islam Jahil kabilo se nikali hui ideology hai. Mohammad sex maniac tha. You can't expect anything batter where Islam is practiced in any form. Best way is to ditch Islam and Islamic practices. This is the reason that wherever Islam is practiced, people are jahil. Where it is practiced more people are more jahil. For example Indian Muslims. Where people practice it just for the sake of saying, they are batter. For example Iram, Indonesia. BD under Hasina had done very well and I was a big admirer of BD' economic policies. Now see what is happening. BD's suppl chains are getting disrupt. BD, which was a big possibility is losing its shine under idiot yusuf.
