2:216. Fighting 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 Allah Knows, while you know not.
(مسلمانو) تم پر (خدا کے رستے میں) لڑنا فرض کردیا گیا ہے وہ تمہیں ناگوار تو ہوگا مگر عجب نہیں کہ ایک چیز تم کو بری لگے اور وہ تمہارے حق میں بھلی ہو اور عجب نہیں کہ ایک چیز تم کو بھلی لگے اور وہ تمہارے لئے مضر ہو۔ اور ان باتوں کو) خدا ہی بہتر جانتا ہے اور تم نہیں جانتے
