Among the believers, those who stay at home without a good reason are not equal to those who strive for the cause of God in person or with their property. To those who strive for His cause in person or with their property, God has granted a higher rank than to those who stay at home. God has promised that everyone will receive his proper share of the reward but He will grant a much greater reward to those striving for His cause than to those who stay home (for no reason).
مؤمنانى كه بى‌هيچ رنج و آسيبى از جنگ سر مى‌تابند با كسانى كه به مال و جان خويش در راه خدا جهاد مى‌كنند برابر نيستند. خدا كسانى را كه به مال و جان خويش جهاد مى‌كنند بر آنان كه از جنگ سر مى‌تابند به درجتى برترى داده است. و خدا همه را وعده‌هاى نيكو داده است. و جهادكنندگان را بر آنها كه از جهاد سر مى‌تابند به مزدى بزرگ برترى نهاده است.
