8:72


It is already said that jihad is of two kinds: the physical jihad and that of knowledge. Similarly, there are two kinds of sword: the sword of iron and the sword of knowledge, and two kinds of migration (hijrat): the external and the internal. External migration is to leave the home and country for the sake of religion when it is necessary, and the internal migration is to travel from the physical world to the spiritual world in order to strengthen the religion. Thus in this verse, are mentioned two such forms of jihad, migration etc. : "Those who believed and left their homes (externally or internally) and did jihad with their wealth (material or the wealth of knowledge) and souls in the path of God and those who took them in and helped them - these are protecting friends one of another." (8:72).
