oppressors! And give us from Thy presence some protecting friend! And, give
us from Thy presence some defender.

Commentary
Yuqaa-tilu fii
Sabii-Lillaahi -
(fought for the Cause of Allah), this sentence has come three times in these
verses. The aim is to emphasize upon the matter that the battle should only be
for the religion of Allah Almighty. He approves that none should prevent any other
from going on the Way of Religion. The war is with them only who do not believe
in the true religion themselves; as well as obstruct others too from acting
upon the religious instructions.
It is understood that Jihad
means ‘to be prepared for fighting against those people, who prevent the human
beings from the straight path and want to make others their own harmonious by
violence. Sign of those misled people is that they view only worldly advantages
of their own and their companions, and wish to keep others pressed forcibly for
their personal desires. They say, “We are superior to all other persons and
they should remain our servants”.
Contrary to them, there are
some such people, who like goodness for entire humankind and consider their
gain in the gain of all other human beings. Neither they are proud nor haughty.
They do not want to keep others under their influence. They deem necessary to
help the poor, the needy and the feeble people, and there is neither any
interest of their own in it, nor they think about any benefit. Rather their aim
is only to save the creature of Allah Almighty from any disaster. They neither
claim any gratitude from someone, nor desire any partiality/favor. These people
believe truly in Allah Almighty and His religion.
Allah Almighty commands that
while those men and women, little, elder and weak children of any inhabited
place would be crying and screaming for help, defence and protection against
the tyrants, who have made them oppressed, then what has happened with you that
you do not go forth to help them? Moreover, why do you not grip up your loins
for fighting against the oppressors?
