Tafsir

Scholarly commentary explaining a verse — its context, its meaning and how the scholars have understood it.

Al-Baqarah 2:216

Word by word

كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ ٱلْقِتَالُ وَهُوَ كُرْهٌ لَّكُمْ ۖ وَعَسَىٰٓ أَن تَكْرَهُوا۟ شَيْـًٔا وَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ ۖ وَعَسَىٰٓ أَن تُحِبُّوا۟ شَيْـًٔا وَهُوَ شَرٌّ لَّكُمْ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ وَأَنتُمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَ

Battle has been enjoined upon you while it is hateful to you. But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allāh knows, while you know not.

Tafsir Muyassar

Ministry of Islamic Affairs, Saudi Arabia

فرض الله عليكم -أيها المؤمنون- قتال الكفار، والقتال مكروه لكم من جهة الطبع; لمشقته وكثرة مخاطره، وقد تكرهون شيئًا وهو في حقيقته خير لكم، وقد تحبون شيئًا لما فيه من الراحة أو اللذة العاجلة، وهو شر لكم. والله تعالى يعلم ما هو خير لكم، وأنتم لا تعلمون ذلك. فبادروا إلى الجهاد في سبيله.
