* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn

{ ٱنْفِرُواْ خِفَافاً وَثِقَالاً وَجَاهِدُواْ بِأَمْوَالِكُمْ وَأَنْفُسِكُمْ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ ذٰلِكُمْ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ }

Go forth light and heavy! that is energetically or not; it is also said to mean go forth strong or weak or rich or poor — but this was abrogated by the verse The weak would not be at fault … Q. 991. Struggle in the way of God with your possessions and your lives that is better for you if only you knew that it is better for you; so do not sink down heavily.
