             You who believe! What is the matter with you that when you are
             told, ‘Go out and fight in the way of God,’ you sink down heavily
             to the earth? Are you happier with this world than the hereafter?
             Yet the enjoyment of this world is very small compared to that of

             the hereafter. If you do not go out to fight, He will punish you with
             a painful punishment and substitute another people in your place.
             You will not harm Him in any way. God has power over all things.
             (Surat at-Tawba, 38-39)
             O Prophet! Spur on the believers to fight. If there are twenty of you
             who are steadfast, they will overcome two hundred; and if there are

             a hundred of you, they will overcome a thousand of those who dis-
             believe, because they are people who do not understand. (Surat al-
             Anfal, 65)


             DULY WAGING A STRUGGLE IN THE WAY OF
             GOD WITH THE HELP OF THE QUR’AN
             So do not obey the disbelievers but use this (the Qur’an) to battle
             against them with all your might. (Surat al-Furqan, 52)
             Strive for God with the striving due to Him. He has selected you
             and not placed any constraint upon you in the religion–the religion
             of your forefather Ibrahim. He named you Muslims before and also
             in this, so that the Messenger could be witness against you and you
             could be witnesses against all mankind. So perform prayer and give

             the alms and hold fast to God. He is your Protector–the Best Pro-
             tector, the Best Helper. (Surat al-Hajj, 78)
             So if you come upon such people in war, make a harsh example of
             them to deter those coming after them so that hopefully they will
             pay heed. (Surat al-Anfal, 57)
             Those who believe and migrate and strive in the Way of God with
