I want to reduce the HTTP request on my website as much as possible.
Is it ok to minify all the JS in one big minified file, including external libraries such as jQuery?

Yes; this is perfectly fine, and common practice.
However, you may prefer to load jQuery from Google’s CDN instead of including it in the bundle.
This saves time for people who already have Google’s jQuery in their cache.
