what quran says about jihad
And fight in the Way of Allah those who fight you, but transgress not the limits. Truly, Allah likes not the transgressors. (This Verse is the first one that was revealed in connection with jihad, but it was supplemented by another (V.9:36)).
( سورة البقرة , Al-Baqara, Chapter #2, Verse #190)
jihad (holy fighting in Allahs Cause) is ordained for you (Muslims) though you dislike it, and it may be that you dislike a thing which is good for you and that you like a thing which is bad for you. Allah knows but you do not know.
( سورة البقرة , Al-Baqara, Chapter #2, Verse #216)
It is only those who believe not in Allah and the Last Day and whose hearts are in doubt that ask your leave (to be exempted from jihad). So in their doubts they waver.
( سورة التوبة , At-Taubah, Chapter #9, Verse #45)
And when a Soorah (chapter from the Quran) is revealed, enjoining them to believe in Allah and to strive hard and fight along with His Messenger, the wealthy among them ask your leave to exempt them (from jihad) and say, "Leave us (behind), we would be with those who sit (at home)."
( سورة التوبة , At-Taubah, Chapter #9, Verse #86)
And why should ye not fight in the cause of Allah and of those who, being weak, are ill-treated (and oppressed)?- Men, women, and children, whose cry is: "Our Lord! Rescue us from this town, whose people are oppressors; and raise for us from thee one who will protect; and raise for us from thee one who will help!"
( سورة النساء , An-Nisa, Chapter #4, Verse #75)
