According to Merriam-Webster's Dictionary (on-line), this word means, "Islamic guerrilla fighters especially in the Middle East".
The literal meaning of the Arabic word this came from is, "person who wages jihad."
The pronunciation is: mü-"ja-hi-'dEn, mu-, -"jä-
You can listen to the pronunciation at the link below.
