Sale ... "Expose their fortune and their lives." Rodwell ... "Contend with purse and person." Palmer ... "Are strenuous with their wealth and with their persons." [Sidenote: (33) The Table, V, 39.] 46. "O ye who believe! fear God and desire union with Him and (_Jahidoo_) toil on His path. It may be that you will obtain happiness." Sale ... "Fight." Rodwell ... "Contend earnestly." Palmer ... "Be strenuous." [Sidenote: (34) _Ibid_, 58.] 47. "And the faithful will say, 'Are these they who swore by God their (_Jahda_) utmost oath that they were surely on your side?' Vain their works; and they themselves shall come to ruin." Sale ... "Most firm." Rodwell ... "Most solemn." Palmer ... "Most strenuous." [Sidenote: (35) _Ibid_, 59.] 48. "O ye who believe! should any of you desert his religion, God will then raise up a people whom He loveth, and who love Him, lowly towards the faithful, lofty to the unbelievers (_Yojahidoona_) striving in the path of God, and not fearing the blame of the blamer. This is the Grace of God; on whom He will He bestoweth it, and God is all-embracing, Omniscient!" Sale ... "They shall fight for the religion of God." Rodwell ... "For the cause of God will they contend." Palmer ... "Strenuous in the way of God." [Sidenote: _Jihad_ does not mean the waging of war.] 49. These are all the verses of the Koran which contain the word "_Jahd_" or "_Jihad_," or any derivations from them. I believe that I have clearly shown by means of a careful comparison between the translators and commentators and the original passages in the Koran, that the word _Jahd_ or _Jihad_ in the classical Arabic and as used in the Koran does not mean waging war or fighting, but only to do one's utmost and to exert, labour or toil. The meaning which has come to be ascribed to the word is undoubtedly a conventional one, and is one that has been applied to it at a period much less recent than the revelation of the various chapters of the Koran. [Sidenote: _Katal_ and _Kital_.] 50. I do not mean to contend that the Koran does not contain injunctions to fight or wage war. There are many verses enjoining the Prophet's followers to prosecute a defensive war, but not one of aggression. The words "_katal_" and "_kital_" distinctly indicate this. [Sidenote: Conclusion.] 51. I have already analysed all the verses containing these words (_katal_ and _kital_) in this book. What I have aimed at in the Appendix is to show that those authors and translators who cite certain verses of the Koran containing the word _Jahd_ or _Jihad_ and its derivations in support of their assertion, and that the Mohammadan religion sanctions the waging of war and the shedding of blood, are altogether in the wrong.
