Verse 216

كُتِبَ Is prescribed عَلَيْكُمُ upon you ٱلْقِتَالُ [the] fighting وَهُوَ while it كُرْهٌۭ (is) hateful لَّكُمْ ۖ to you وَعَسَىٰٓ But perhaps أَن [that] تَكْرَهُوا۟ you dislike شَيْـًۭٔا a thing وَهُوَ and it خَيْرٌۭ (is) good لَّكُمْ ۖ for you وَعَسَىٰٓ and perhaps أَن [that] تُحِبُّوا۟ you love شَيْـًۭٔا a thing وَهُوَ and it شَرٌّۭ (is) bad لَّكُمْ ۗ for you وَٱللَّهُ And Allah يَعْلَمُ knows وَأَنتُمْ while you لَا (do) not تَعْلَمُونَ know ٢١٦

Battle has been enjoined upon you while it is hateful to you. But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allāh knows, while you know not.
