[Nisa
4:75] And what is the matter with you, that you should not
fight in Allah’s cause and for the feeble men, and women, and
children, who invoke, "Our Lord! Liberate us from this town, the people
of which are unjust; and give us a protector from Yourself;
and give us a supporter from Yourself." (Allah
has created many supporters for the believers.) [Nisa 4:76] The believers fight for Allah’s cause; and the disbelievers fight for the devil’s cause - so fight against the friends of the devil; undoubtedly the devil’s conspiracy is weak.

[Nisa
4:77] Did you not see those to whom it was said, "Restrain your hands,
keep the prayer established and pay the charity"; but when fighting was
ordained for them, some of them started fearing people, the way they feared
Allah - or even greater! And they said, "Our Lord! Why have You ordained
fighting for us? If only You would have let us live some more!" Say (O
dear Prophet Mohammed - peace and blessings be upon him), "The usage
of this world is meagre; and the Hereafter is
better for the pious; and you will not be wronged even (the
weight of) a single thread."
[Nisa
4:78] Death will come to you wherever you may be, even if you were in strong
fortresses; if some good reaches them they say, "This is from
Allah"; and if any misfortune reaches them, they say, "This is from
you"; say, "Everything is from Allah"; what is wrong with these
people, that they do not seem to understand anything?
[Nisa
4:79] Whatever good reaches you, O listeners, is from Allah, and whatever ill
reaches you is from yourselves; and We have sent you (O
dear Prophet Mohammed - peace and blessings be upon him) as a Noble
Messenger towards all mankind; and Allah is Sufficient, as a Witness.
