The Fremen Jihad was the retribution of the Fremen against the Landsraad who tried to overthrow Emperor Paul Atreides.

The Bene Gesserit saw the Kwisatz Haderach/DE the prospect of their plans turn against the, and therefore rather than have him live independently of them, they hoped to kill and replace him. Therefore they allied themselves with the rebellious houses.

The Fremen were motivated by religious fervor since Paul was the long awaited messiah and their Mahdi. They expanded from system to system meeting other customs and despiteful religions. The Qizara Tafwid regarded the Jihad as the means to stread their religion. 40 faits were eradicated.

During the Jihad, a mere ten legions of Fremen managed to overthrow House McNaught and defeat the allied combined forces Malathon and Kalakh, being more than ten times their strength.

The surviving forces of the Landsraad with the help of the Bene Gesserit met the Fremen legions in the Molitor system and the Fedaykin made the battles a victory for the Fremen. During that campaign most of the 40 perished faiths were eradicated.

By the time the last forces returned to Arrakis there was no force to oppose the emperor. The tensions between House Corrino and the other Houses was no more. There was only one religion, only one army and whre there was a balance of powers between various forces, now was unity. The Bene Gesserit survived as an order without power, the Guild a pawn of the emperor, the Landsraad was a shell and CHOAM was dominated to an extent that the Corrino never managed.

During that period, many elegies and laments were transmitted orally, recorded on alien planets while longing for Dune. Some of them were gathered by Mustava Rozalen in the collection Lament of the Lost.
