Mafhoom-ul-Quran - Al-Baqara : 34
لَا یَسْتَاْذِنُكَ الَّذِیْنَ یُؤْمِنُوْنَ بِاللّٰهِ وَ الْیَوْمِ الْاٰخِرِ اَنْ یُّجَاهِدُوْا بِاَمْوَالِهِمْ وَ اَنْفُسِهِمْ١ؕ وَ اللّٰهُ عَلِیْمٌۢ بِالْمُتَّقِیْنَ
لَا يَسْتَاْذِنُكَ : نہیں مانگتے آپ سے رخصت الَّذِيْنَ : وہ لوگ جو يُؤْمِنُوْنَ : ایمان رکھتے ہیں بِاللّٰهِ : اللہ پر وَالْيَوْمِ الْاٰخِرِ : اور یوم آخرت اَنْ : کہ يُّجَاهِدُوْا : وہ جہاد کریں بِاَمْوَالِهِمْ : اپنے مالوں سے وَاَنْفُسِهِمْ : اور اپنین جان (جمع) وَاللّٰهُ : اور اللہ عَلِيْمٌ : خوب جانتا ہے بِالْمُتَّقِيْنَ : متقیوں کو
Those who believe in Allah and in the Last Day do not ask you to be excused from jihad with their wealth and lives. And Allah is aware of the God-fearing.
In the second (44) and third (45) verses given there was the difference between believers and hypocrites. Those who believe in Allah Ta` ala truly and staunchly do not pick an occasion like that only to seek desertion from Jihad just for the sake of love for their lives and wealth and go about asking the permission of their prophet to stay back. In fact, this is the behavior of only those who do not believe in Allah and the Day of Judgment (Akhirah), truly and correctly - and, as for Allah, He knows the God-fearing perfectly well.
