The idea of the chosen people has various interpretations. The traditional
Jewish interpretation is that they are chosen and bound to meet certain
expectations and obligations. In other words they are not superior.

do good works and honor others. Traditional Muslim interpretation of jihad
is that it is an interior struggle which is personal, and not necessarily a
fight.
