List Of Sura's

Al-Anfal (The Spoils of War)

Surah 8 · Verse 65

The preparation for defending and attacking the enemies of Islam should be such that one patient believer should be able to fight with ten enemies, i.e. all believers should be able to fight rest of the world as we are 1/5 th of the world population. In modern warfare a small group of highly qualified scientists and technologists is able to defend and attack very large groups and thereby dominate them. This appears to be the right approach in the present day world but unfortunately Muslims have not achieved any excellence in Science and Technology and in fact are dependent on other communities. This backwardness of Muslims appears to be a violation of the orders given in verse No 65. Allah (SWT) had lightened the burden on the companions of the Prophet (PBH) stating that one believer should be able to fight with at least two enemies of Islam.
