Hast thou not observed those unto whom it was said;. withhold your hands, and establish prayer and give the poor-rate; but when thereafter fighting was prescribed unto them, lo! there is a party of them dreading men as with the dread of Allah, or with greater dread; and they say: our Lord! why hast Thou prescribed unto us fighting!
Wahai Muhammad, tidakkah kamu melihat dan heran terhadap orang-orang yang menginginkan perang sebelum datang perintah perang? Kepada mereka dikatakan, "Belum tiba saatnya berperang, tahanlah dirimu, jagalah selalu salat dan zakat kalian."
