65. O Messenger. rouse the Believers to the fight. If there are twenty amongst you,
patient and persevering, they will vanquish two hundred: if a hundred, they will vanquish
a thousand of the Unbelievers: for these are a people without understanding.

66. For the present, Allah hath lightened your (task), for He knoweth that there is a weak
spot in you: But (even so), if there are a hundred of you, patient and persevering, they
will vanquish two hundred, and if a thousand, they will vanquish two thousand, with the
leave of Allah. for Allah is with those who patiently persevere.

67. It is not fitting for an apostle that he should have prisoners of war until he hath
thoroughly subdued the land. Ye look for the temporal goods of this world; but Allah
looketh to the Hereafter: And Allah is Exalted in might, Wise.
