يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ إِذَا لَقِيتُمۡ فِئَةٗ فَٱثۡبُتُواْ وَٱذۡكُرُواْ ٱللَّهَ كَثِيرٗا لَّعَلَّكُمۡ تُفۡلِحُونَ

(45) ^[1955]You who Believe, when you meet a force ˹in battle˺ stand your ground^[1956] and mention Allah abundantly^[1957], may you succeed.

[1955] Here are some lessons drawn from the battle detailing the means that can help win victory in future conflicts (cf. Ibn ʿĀshūr). That is to: 1) stand firm; 2) mention God profusely; 3) act in accordance with the commands of God and His Messenger (ﷺ) (the Qur’an and the Sunnah); 4) maintain harmony and avoid discord; 5) remain steadfast and forbear (cf. Ibn al-Qayyim, al-Furūsiyyah, pp. 505-506); 6) behave with due humbleness and dignity, and 7) have the best intentions at heart for the purpose of battle (cf. Tafsīr al-Madīnah al-Munawwarah).
[1956] Abū Hurayrah (رضي الله عنه) narrated that the Messenger (ﷺ) said: “Do not wish to meet your enemy, but if you do hold your ground” (al-Bukhārī: 3026, Muslim: 1741).
[1957] Upon meeting the enemy in battle, Believers are to engage in mentioning God (dhikr Allāh) with their hearts and tongues (cf. al-Ṭabarī, Ibn Kathīr, al-Saʿdī); earnestly supplicating for Divine assistance (cf. al-Muyassar, al-Mukhtaṣar).
