হে নবী, আপনি মুসলমানগণকে উৎসাহিত করুন জেহাদের জন্য। তোমাদের মধ্যে যদি বিশ জন দৃঢ়পদ ব্যক্তি থাকে, তবে জয়ী হবে দু’শর মোকাবেলায়। আর যদি তোমাদের মধ্যে থাকে একশ লোক, তবে জয়ী হবে হাজার কাফেরের উপর থেকে তার কারণ ওরা জ্ঞানহীন।
O Prophet (Muhammad SAW)! Urge the believers to fight. If there are twenty steadfast persons amongst you, they will overcome two hundred, and if there be a hundred steadfast persons they will overcome a thousand of those who disbelieve, because they (the disbelievers) are people who do not understand.
يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ حَرِّضِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَى الْقِتَالِ إِن يَكُن مِّنكُمْ عِشْرُونَ صَابِرُونَ يَغْلِبُواْ مِئَتَيْنِ وَإِن يَكُن مِّنكُم مِّئَةٌ يَغْلِبُواْ أَلْفًا مِّنَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ بِأَنَّهُمْ قَوْمٌ لاَّ يَفْقَهُونَ

PICKTHAL: O Prophet! Exhort the believers to fight. If there be of you twenty steadfast they shall overcome two hundred, and if there be of you a hundred (steadfast) they shall overcome a thousand of those who disbelieve, because they (the disbelievers) are a folk without intelligence.
