Al-Anfal (The Spoils of War)
Surah 8 · Verse 38
Say to those who do not believe, if they desist then that which has passed will be protectively forgiven to them but if they repeat, then what happened to the ancient has already passed (as history and should serve as a warning).
If the infidels desist they will he forgiven, if they do not then they will be punished. Muslims were ordered to fight them to bring an end to their persecution and to establish Islam and in this effort of theirs, as in all other affairs, they had the Excellent guardianship and help of Allah (SWT).
