8:15
يَا أَيُّهَا
الَّذِينَ
آمَنُوا
إِذَا
لَقِيتُمُ
الَّذِينَ
كَفَرُوا
زَحْفًا
فَلَا
تُوَلُّوهُمُ
الْأَدْبَارَ
yā-ʾayyuhā lladhīna ʾāmanū ʾidhā laqītumu lladhīna kafarū zaḥfan fa-lā tuwallūhumu l-ʾadbāra
Believers, do not retreat when facing the marching army of the unbelievers, for no believer will turn back at that time except for strategic reasons or to join another band.
