559. Commandment – O ye who believe! when you meet those who disbelieve, advancing in force, turn not your backs to them

[8:16] O ye who believe! when you meet those who disbelieve, advancing in force, turn not your backs to them. [8:17] And whoso turns his back to them on such a day, unless manoeuvring for battle or turning to join another company, he indeed draws upon himself the wrath of Allah, and Hell shall be his abode. And an evil resort it is.

 

[5:22] ‘O my people, enter the Holy Land which Allah has ordained for you and do not turn back, for then you will turn losers.’

 

[5:50] And We have revealed the Book to thee bidding thee to judge between them by that which Allah has revealed and not to follow their evil inclinations, and to be on thy guard against them, lest they cause thee to fall into affliction on account of part of what Allah has revealed to thee. But if they turn away, then know that Allah intends to smite them for some of their sins. And indeed a large number of men are disobedient.

 

[5:93] And obey Allah and obey the Messenger, and be on your guard. But if you turn away, then know that on Our Messenger lies only the clear conveyance of the Message.
