Soft war may be counted among the subjects dealt with in the Holy Quran. As is understood by the holy Quran, cruel and superficially powerful systems of government like Pharaoh and Namrud have used this manner of war against Divie prophets like Moses and Ibrahim. Masterminds of soft war affecting people`s minds reached their aims more easily and quickly. Moreover, soft war is less expensive than hard war and causes those invaded to meet invaders` measures as humanistic. The holy Quran has introduced various forms of soft war in the stories of the prophets and in the happenings in the lifetime of the Prophet of Islam.  Deriding religious symbols in the form of joke, sowing the seeds of discord and calling it the way for freedom, rumoring under the title of enlightening and weakening the leader in different ways may be counted as some cases of soft war. Finally it has been concluded that following pure leader and religious teachings would be the best way to oppose such a war.
Keywords: war seeking state of enemies, War of nerves, soft war, soft power, the ways for opposition
