Y: Fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you, but do not
transgress limits; for Allah loveth not transgressors.

Y: And slay them wherever ye catch them, and turn them out from where
they have Turned you out; for tumult and oppression are worse than
slaughter; but fight them not at the Sacred Mosque, unless they (first)

hostility except against the oppressors.
