Scholars frame Western immigration as a form of religious struggle. [fact]

Corcoran describes hijra as the religious imperative of Muslims to wage "civilization jihad" against non-Muslim societies through immigration. She writes, "Jihad is a struggle against unbelievers. Immigration is a jihad on the West." (2015b, ebook location 189).

QUESTION: Is this an accurate characterization of hijra in Islamic theology, or a contested/extreme interpretation by Corcoran? Worth verifying primary sources.
