In classical Islamic law, there are three major divisions of the world which are dar al-Islam, denoting regions where Islamic law prevails, dar al-sulh denoting non-Islamic lands which are at peace or have an armistice with a Muslim government, and dar al-harb, denoting lands that share a border with dar al-Islam and have not concluded an armistice. Muslims regard Islam as a universal religion and believe it to be the rightful law for all humankind. Despite this, other religious groups are permitted to have their own courts of law under Islamic rule. Muslims are imposed to spread Sharia law and sovereignty through lesser jihad against dar al-harb. According to Islam, this should first be attempted peacefully through Dawah. In the case of war, Muslims are imposed to subject, or eliminate fighters until they surrender or seek peace.
