Nesae 104
104- AND DO NOT LOSS HEART AND SLACKEN IN SEEKING YOUR ENEMY. IF YOU ARE SUFFERING, THEY ARE SUFFERING AS MUCH AS YOU DO, BUT YOU SEEK FROM ALLAH WHAT THEY DO NOT SEEK, AND ALLAH IS FULL OF KNOWLEDGE AND MOST WISE.
This Ayah was sent down on the concerning the battle of Ohud, but its rules apply to the Muslims at all times, including now.
After the battle of Ohud, during which over seventy men were martyred, out of seven hundred, also many were injured. Allah’s messenger commanded the Muslims who fought in the battle to go out to fight again. The army of Makkah was suspected to turn back to fight the Muslims again. If fact the Makkan army turned back heading towards Medina, but when they knew that the Muslims went out again to meet them and wanting to revenge for their losses in Ohud, the Makans went home as they decided not to fight again.
Allah the Highest encourages the Muslims and reminds them of:
- Their enemy suffers as much as the Muslims suffer.
- The Muslims hope for Allah’s reward, while the disbelievers have no such hope.
This is what we should remember as Muslims whenever we are facing an enemy. We should endure adversities, reminding ourselves of Allah’s reward, and that all our support and recompense comes from Him only. This should put our position into perspective.
