And if We had prescribed upon them "You have to kill yourselves or you go out from your homes", they will not do so except a few of them, If they had done what they were instructed to do, it would have been better for them as well as for stabilizing their soul.
The characters of hypocrites during Messenger’s time are portrayed in this verse. It is told in verses 9: 41-42: "When it is told to them ‘you go forth lightly and heavily and do Jihad with your wealth and your persons in the way of Lord, that is better for you if you are knowing’, they will surely follow you if the destination is near and the journey is easy. But the distance made upon them un tolerable, they swear by Lord that if we were able, we would have come forth with you, they are ruining themselves, and Lord Knows that indeed they are the liars".
But today as there is no group of believers anywhere in the world, there is no war or Jihad with weapons. So the odd believer will testify Adhikr and propagate It into entire worlds irrespective of nation or religion. He will also do Jihad with Adhikr against the Arabic Quran reading Fujjar who are hiding and rejecting Adhikr repeatedly as told in verses 9: 73, 123; 25: 52, and 33: 60-61. See explanation 2: 265-266; 3: 166-168 and 7: 205-206.
