Surah baqarah Ayat 218 meaning in urdu

بخلا ف اِس کے جو لوگ ایمان لائے ہیں اور جنہوں نے خدا کی راہ میں اپنا گھر بار چھوڑا اور جہاد کیا ہے، وہ رحمت الٰہی کے جائز امیدوار ہیں اور اللہ ان کی لغزشوں کو معاف کرنے والا اور اپنی رحمت سے انہیں نوازنے والا ہے

Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

(2:218) In contrast to them, those, who have believed And left their homes in the way of Allah and exerted their utmost in His cause, *234 rightly look forward to His mercy: and Allah is Forgiving and full of mercy.

Indeed, those who have believed and those who have emigrated and fought meaning

*234). Jihad denotes doing one's utmost to achieve something. It is not the equivalent of war, for which the Arabic word is qital. Jihad has a wider connotation and embraces every kind of striving in God's cause. A mujahid is a person who is single-mindedly devoted to his cause, who uses his mental capacity to reflect how best he can achieve it, propagates it by word of mouth and by the pen, uses his physical energy in striving to serve it, spends all the resources at his disposal to promote it, employs all the force he commands in confronting any power which might stand in its way, and, whenever necessary, does not shirk risking his very life for it. All this is Jihad. ' Jihad in the way of God' is that strife in which man engages exclusively to win God's good pleasure, to establish the supremacy of His religion and to make His word prevail.
