Samurai culture looks like Jihadi culture at least what is stated in books
Jihad is a "golden virtue" of Muslims but a forgotten one at same time with lot of similarities with Samurai culture
I. Rectitude or Justice
Jihadi warrior determines if injustice is being done against Muslim community or people and then he takes it upon himself to correct the problem
II. Courage
We all know Jihadi take on technology and mechanical superior foe , no lack of courage in Islamic warriors
There are also stories of warriors burning down ships so they would not have to take the voyage home from battle
III. Benevolence or Mercy
Islamic warriors that follow the code of Islam are thought to forgive residents of occupied regions in war and free any slaves
Infact its well known fact muslims gave their subjects , high rank position in Ottoman era
IV. Politeness
Traditionally the Islamic warriors are known to be quite polite vs enemy generals in traditional warfare and trying to find all possible avenues of diverting war
V. Honesty and Sincerity
Islamic warriors are also not enticed by Money , rather they are fighting for ideology and reason , they can't be bought with money
VI. Honor
Same code practiced by Islamic warriors , they would bear the sword as last resort and bear as much none sense as possible before lifting arms , infact its stated Islamic warrior must never lift the sword first it only has to be lifted in self defense
The story of Salah Ud din , is very famous how he protected Palestine after conquering it and provided safety to all residents
VII. Loyalty
Islamic warriors loyalty lies with the head of Islamic state, again very loyal folks
there is no Islamic state present in world today - a key point
There is a very popular story of Khalid Ibn Al Walid a conquering general , when the head of Islamic empire asked him to step down , he did so with out a fuss, he could have retaliated against his head of state but the warrior respected the command and stepped down
VIII. Character and Self-Control
Islamic warriors of old were known to show self control over things like wine and abuse of power, mass killing in cities after conquest as done by Crusaders
