فَإِنِ ٱنتَهَوۡاْ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورٞ رَّحِيمٞ
But if they desist, then Allah is indeed all-forgiving, all-merciful.
Agha Ali Puya Commentary
Commentary on Quran 2:192
[Pooya/Ali Commentary 2:192] Showing mercy when one has the upper hand is enjoined in this verse. On all occasions, the lover of Allah attempts to draw near Him by taking on the appropriate attribute of Allah. Mercy and forgiveness for the enemies if they desist from fighting has been recommended. No other creed or religion has this provision.
