Isipokuwa maadui wawe ni zaidi ya mara mbili ya idadi ya Waislamu, Muislamu haruhusiwi kuwageuzia migongo.

Unless enemies outnumber twofold of Muslims, a Muslim is not allowed to turn his back to them.

Vivyo hivyo, isipokuwa kwa mbinu ya kivita, au kujiunga tena na kikosi chake, Mwislamu pia amekatazwa kukimbia uwanja wa vita. Allah Mtukufu anasema: {Na mtu yeyote atakayewageuzia migongo siku hiyo - isipokuwa kwa mbinu ya kivita, au kujiunga na kikosi chake - basi amejipatia ghadhabu kutoka kwa Allah, na makazi yake ni Jahannamu, na ni marejeo mabaya kabisa.} (Al-Anfal: 16)

Similarly, unless it is in a stratagem of war, or to retreat to a troop (of his own), a Muslim also is forbidden to flee from the battlefield. Allah the Almighty says, {1f any do turn hi; back to them on such a day -unless it be in a stratagem of war, or to retreat to a troop (of his own) he draws on himself the wrath of Allah, and his abode is Hell, -an evil refuge (indeed).} (Al-Anfal: 16)

Abu Hurairah, Allah amridhie naye, aliripoti kwamba Mtume ﷺ alisema: "Jiepusheni na mambo saba yanayoangamiza." Wakamuuliza: "Ee Mjumbe wa Allah, ni yapi hayo?" Akasema: "Kumshirikisha Allah (shirk), uchawi, kuua nafsi ambayo Allah ameifanya takatifu isipokuwa kwa haki, kula riba, kula mali ya yatima, kukimbia uwanjani wakati wa vita, na kuwasingizia wanawake Waumini safi wasiotarajia kushtakiwa kwa zina."

Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, reported the Prophet to have said, “Avoid the seven destroyers, The listeners asked: "0 Messenger of Allah what are they ? '! He said, ”Associating partners with Allah (shirk), sorcery, taking a life which Allah has made sacred except in the course of justice, devouring usury, appropriating the property of the orphan, fleeing from the battlefield and slandering chaste believing women who would not expect to be accused of adultery.” 1

Ibn Abbas, Allah amridhie, alisema, {Allah alipoteremsha Aya isemayo: "Ikiwa miongoni mwenu wapo ishirini wanaosubiri na kustahimili, watawashinda mia mbili."} (Al-Anfal: 65)

Ibn Abbas, May Allah be pleased with him, said, {When Allah revealed If there are twenty amongst you, patient and persevering, they will vanquish two hundreds.} (Al-Anfal: 65)

Aliamuru kwamba si halali kwa Waislamu ishirini kukimbia mbele ya maadui mia mbili. Lakini Allah alipoteremsha, {Lakini (hata hivyo) kuna mia moja miongoni mwenu, wenye subira na uvumilivu, watawashinda mia mbili; na kama ni elfu moja, watawashinda elfu mbili, kwa idhini ya Allah; kwa kuwa Allah yuko pamoja na wenye kusubiri kwa subira.} (Al-Anfal: 66)

He prescribed that it is not allowed for twenty Muslims to flee from two hundred of enemies. But, when Allah revealed, {But (even so) there are a hundred of you, patient and preserving, they will vanquish two hundred, and if a thousand, they vanquish two thousand, with the leave of Allah: for Allah is with those who patiently perseverer.} (AI-Anfal: 66)

Mwenyezi Mungu ameamuru kwamba si halali kwa Waislamu mia moja kukimbia mbele ya mia mbili.2

Allah prescribed that it is not allowed for a hundred Muslims to flee from two hundred.”2
