Sura 2
Aya 279
279
فَإِن لَم تَفعَلوا فَأذَنوا بِحَربٍ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَرَسولِهِ ۖ وَإِن تُبتُم فَلَكُم رُءوسُ أَموالِكُم لا تَظلِمونَ وَلا تُظلَمونَ

Yusuf Ali

If ye do it not, Take notice of war1 from God and His Messenger. But if ye turn back, ye shall have your capital sums: Deal not unjustly, and ye shall not be dealt with unjustly.
  • This is not war for opinions, but an ultimatum of war for the liberation of debtors unjustly dealt with and oppressed.
