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!"

The likeness of the life of the present is as the rain which We send down from the skies: by its mingling arises the produce of the earth- which provides food for men and animals: (It grows) till the earth is clad with its golden ornaments and is decked out (in beauty): the people to whom it belongs think they have all powers of disposal over it: There reaches it Our command by night or by day, and We make it like a harvest clean-mown, as if it had not flourished only the day before! thus do We explain the Signs in detail for those who reflect.

你们怎么不为（保护）主道和（解救）老弱妇孺而抗战呢？他们常说：“我们的主啊！求你从这个虐民所居的城市里把我们救出去。求你从你那里为我们委任一个保护者，求你从你们那里为我们委任一个援助者。”

今世的生活，就像是从云中降下雨水，地里的禾苗，即人和牲畜所吃的东西--就因之而繁茂起来。直到田地穿上盛装，打扮得很美丽，而农夫猜想自己可以获得丰收的时候，我的命令在黑夜或白昼降临那些田地，我使五谷只留下茬儿，彷佛新近没有种过庄稼一样。我为能思维的民众这样解释许多迹象。
