now when ye meet in battle those who disbelieve then it is smiting of the necks until when ye have routed them then making fast of bonds and afterward either grace or ransom till the war lay down its burdens. that . and if allah willed he could have punished them but that he may try some of you by means of others. and those who are slain in the way of allah he rendereth not their actions vain.
فإذا لقيتم الذين كفروا فضرب الرقاب حتى إذا أثخنتموهم فشدوا الوثاق فإما منا بعد وإما فداء حتى تضع الحرب أوزارها ذلك ولو يشاء الله لانتصر منهم ولكن ليبلو بعضكم ببعض والذين قتلوا في سبيل الله فلن يضل أعمالهم
