and kill these (polythe<strong>is</strong>ts/idol-worshippers) alongside him."<br />
Th<strong>is</strong> <strong>is</strong> the establ<strong>is</strong>hed explanation with the scholars of Tafseer<br />
(interpretation of the Qur’aan), and the Qur’aan testifies to th<strong>is</strong><br />
explanation. Allah says,<br />
﴾<br />
َ َ ُ ْ ِ قَ ْ ُ َ ْ َ ْ تف ِ ُ َ<br />
).” َ ْ َ ْ ِ ُ َ یستفتحون ( to “…although aforetime they used<br />
تفْ ِ ُ َ (<br />
IstiftaH) تف -<br />
َ ْ from the word<br />
﴿<br />
) س ( al-Istansar ) <strong>is</strong> تف ( al-IstaftaH<br />
which means ‘asking Fath ( فتح i.e., victory) and Nasr ( نصر i.e., triumph).’<br />
So asking Fath (victory) and Nasr (triumph) by the Prophet <br />
means that the Prophet be sent so that the Jews would fight alongside<br />
him and thus become victorious.<br />
Asking Fath (victory) and Nasr (triumph) by the Prophet does<br />
<strong>not</strong> mean swearing by the Prophet or supplicating by the (Dhaat of the)<br />
Prophet. If ( َ ُ ِ َ تفْ ْ ) meant swearing by the Prophet and supplicating<br />
by (the Dhaat of) the Prophet , then when the Jews swore by the<br />
Prophet or asked by him , then the Jews must have been granted<br />
victory. But the matter was <strong>not</strong> such. Rather when Allah sent<br />
Muhammad , He gave victory - to those who believed in him and<br />
struggled with him - over those who opposed him."<br />
[end quote of Ibn Taymiyyah]<br />
