Is refuting the people of innovation considered jihad?

Question:
He says: What are the conditions of jihad according to the people of the Sunnah and the community, are these conditions present in the Muslims today, and is refuting the people of innovation considered jihad?

Answer:
Jihad continues until the Hour occurs. Jihad in the path of Allah continues until the Hour occurs. As long as disbelievers exist, jihad remains. Jihad is conducted with the Imam of the Muslims, because jihad is among the authorities of the Imam of the Muslims; he is the one who orders it, he is the one who organizes the armies and expeditions, and it is among the authorities of the Imam of the Muslims. Jihad continues with the Imam of the Muslims, whether he is righteous or a sinner, until the Hour occurs, for the exaltation of the word of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). It is necessary that the intention behind it be the exaltation of the word of Allah, supporting Islam and the Muslims. Is that the intention of jihad?
Jihad is conducted with weapons, and jihad is conducted with the tongue. By refuting the people of falsehood and refuting their doubts, and by writing—composing books, writing articles in newspapers and magazines—this is jihad in the path of Allah. Allah the Exalted said: Disbelievers are fought with weapons, and hypocrites are fought with argument. They are fought with argument and clear explanation. Yes.
