لَّا Not يَسْتَوِى (are) equal ٱلْقَـٰعِدُونَ the ones who sit مِنَ among ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ the believers غَيْرُ other than أُو۟لِى the ones (who are) ٱلضَّرَرِ [the] disabled وَٱلْمُجَـٰهِدُونَ and the ones who strive فِى in سَبِيلِ (the) way ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah بِأَمْوَٰلِهِمْ with their wealth وَأَنفُسِهِمْ ۚ and their lives فَضَّلَ Preferred ٱللَّهُ (has) Allah ٱلْمُجَـٰهِدِينَ the ones who strive بِأَمْوَٰلِهِمْ with their wealth وَأَنفُسِهِمْ and their lives عَلَى to ٱلْقَـٰعِدِينَ the ones who sit دَرَجَةًۭ ۚ (in) rank وَكُلًّۭا And (to) all وَعَدَ promised ٱللَّهُ (has) Allah ٱلْحُسْنَىٰ ۚ the best وَفَضَّلَ preferred ٱللَّهُ (has) Allah ٱلْمُجَـٰهِدِينَ the ones who strive عَلَى over ٱلْقَـٰعِدِينَ the ones who sit أَجْرًا (with) a reward عَظِيمًۭا great ٩٥

Not equal are those believers remaining [at home] - other than the disabled - and the mujāhideen, [who strive and fight] in the cause of Allāh with their wealth and their lives. Allāh has preferred the mujāhideen through their wealth and their lives over those who remain [behind], by degrees. And to all [i.e., both] Allāh has promised the best [reward]. But Allāh has preferred the mujāhideen over those who remain [behind] with a great reward -

4:97

إِنَّ Indeed ٱلَّذِينَ those whom تَوَفَّىٰهُمُ take them (in death) ٱلْمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُ the Angels ظَالِمِىٓ (while) they (were) wronging أَنفُسِهِمْ themselves قَالُوا۟ they say فِيمَ In what (condition) كُنتُمْ ۖ were you قَالُوا۟ They said كُنَّا We were مُسْتَضْعَفِينَ oppressed فِى in ٱلْأَرْضِ ۚ the earth قَالُوٓا۟ They said أَلَمْ Not تَكُنْ was أَرْضُ (the) earth ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah وَٰسِعَةًۭ spacious (enough) فَتُهَاجِرُوا۟ so that you (could) emigrate فِيهَا ۚ in it فَأُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ Then those مَأْوَىٰهُمْ (will have) their abode جَهَنَّمُ ۖ (in) Hell وَسَآءَتْ and it is an evil مَصِيرًا destination ٩٧

Indeed, those whom the angels take [in death] while wronging themselves - [the angels] will say, "In what [condition] were you?" They will say, "We were oppressed in the land." They [the angels] will say, "Was not the earth of Allāh spacious [enough] for you to emigrate therein?" For those, their refuge is Hell - and evil it is as a destination.

For those it is expected that Allāh will pardon them, and Allāh is ever Pardoning and Forgiving.

4:100

۞ وَمَن And whoever يُهَاجِرْ emigrates فِى in سَبِيلِ (the) way ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah يَجِدْ will find فِى in ٱلْأَرْضِ the earth مُرَٰغَمًۭا place(s) of refuge كَثِيرًۭا many وَسَعَةًۭ ۚ and abundance وَمَن And whoever يَخْرُجْ leaves مِنۢ from بَيْتِهِۦ his home مُهَاجِرًا (as) an emigrant إِلَى to ٱللَّهِ Allah وَرَسُولِهِۦ and His Messenger ثُمَّ then يُدْرِكْهُ overtakes him ٱلْمَوْتُ [the] death فَقَدْ then certainly وَقَعَ (became) incumbent أَجْرُهُۥ his reward عَلَى on ٱللَّهِ ۗ Allah وَكَانَ And is ٱللَّهُ Allah غَفُورًۭا Oft-Forgiving رَّحِيمًۭا Most Merciful ١٠٠

And whoever emigrates for the cause of Allāh will find on the earth many [alternative] locations and abundance. And whoever leaves his home as an emigrant to Allāh and His Messenger and then death overtakes him - his reward has already become incumbent upon Allāh. And Allāh is ever Forgiving and Merciful.

And when you travel throughout the land, there is no blame upon you for shortening the prayer, [especially] if you fear that those who disbelieve may disrupt [or attack] you. Indeed, the disbelievers are ever to you a clear enemy.
