* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn

{ لَئِنْ أُخْرِجُواْ لاَ يَخْرُجُونَ مَعَهُمْ وَلَئِن قُوتِلُواْ لاَ يَنصُرُونَهُمْ وَلَئِن نَّصَرُوهُمْ لَيُوَلُّنَّ ٱلأَدْبَارَ ثُمَّ لاَ يُنصَرُونَ }

For indeed if they are expelled they would not go forth with them and if they are fought against they would not help them. And even if they were to help them that is to say even if they came to help them they would surely turn their backs to flee the implied response to the oath suffices in place of the response to the conditional in all five instances — then they the Jews would not be helped.
