Woman Is To War As...

...well?

كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ الْقِتَالُ وَهُوَ كُرْهٌ لَّكُمْ وَعَسَى أَن تَكْرَهُواْ شَيْئًا وَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ
وَعَسَى أَن تُحِبُّواْ شَيْئًا وَهُوَ شَرٌّ لَّكُمْ وَاللّهُ يَعْلَمُ وَأَنتُمْ لاَ تَعْلَمُونَ 2:216

2:216 He Ordained War* (Killing/Fighting) (among you) the while it is Hateful to you; and it may be that you Hate something and it (turns out to be) Good (Beneficial) for you, and it may be that you Love something and it (turns out to be) Bad (Detrimental) for you; and God Knows and you do not know (are not aware).

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ لاَ يَحِلُّ لَكُمْ أَن تَرِثُواْ النِّسَاء كَرْهًا
وَلاَ تَعْضُلُوهُنَّ لِتَذْهَبُواْ بِبَعْضِ مَا آتَيْتُمُوهُنَّ إِلاَّ أَن يَأْتِينَ بِفَاحِشَةٍ مُّبَيِّنَةٍ
وَعَاشِرُوهُنَّ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ فَإِن كَرِهْتُمُوهُنَّ فَعَسَى أَن تَكْرَهُواْ شَيْئًا وَيَجْعَلَ اللّهُ فِيهِ خَيْرًا كَثِيرًا 4:19

4:19 (A call) to All who have come to Believe; it is not permissible that you inherit Women (take them or their belongings) against (their will) and do not force them to give back what you have given them unless they have obviously engaged in obominations (lewdness, pornography...); and socialize with them publicly (rather than surreptitiously). If you Hate (Dislike) them it may be that you Hate something and God Makes it a (Source of/in which there is) Great Benefit to you.

but I suppose If you must insist on killing/wronging each other...

وَلاَ تَقْتُلُواْ النَّفْسَ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللّهُ إِلاَّ بِالحَقِّ
وَمَن قُتِلَ مَظْلُومًا فَقَدْ جَعَلْنَا لِوَلِيِّهِ سُلْطَانًا
فَلاَ يُسْرِف فِّي الْقَتْلِ إِنَّهُ كَانَ مَنْصُورًا 17:33
And Do Not Kill A Soul that God Has Made Sacred/Holy except in/for Justice and whoever is killed unfairly (with prejudice/unjustly) We Made His Avenger/Executor/Heir have authority so that his murder is not in vain and he will be victorious/avenged.

أُذِنَ لِلَّذِينَ يُقَاتَلُونَ بِأَنَّهُمْ ظُلِمُوا
وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلَى نَصْرِهِمْ لَقَدِيرٌ 22:39
22:39 Permission (Leave) (is Given to those) who Fight/Kill (in defense) because they are Oppressed/Wronged; and indeed, God Can/May Grant them Victory.

الَّذِينَ أُخْرِجُوا مِن دِيَارِهِمْ بِغَيْرِ حَقٍّ إِلَّا أَن يَقُولُوا رَبُّنَا اللَّهُ
وَلَوْلَا دَفْعُ اللَّهِ النَّاسَ بَعْضَهُم بِبَعْضٍ لَّهُدِّمَتْ
صَوَامِعُ وَبِيَعٌ وَصَلَوَاتٌ وَمَسَاجِدُ يُذْكَرُ فِيهَا اسْمُ اللَّهِ كَثِيرًا
وَلَيَنصُرَنَّ اللَّهُ مَن يَنصُرُهُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَقَوِيٌّ عَزِيز 22:40

22:40 Those evicted from there homes (homelands)without Truth (Justice/Cause) except that they say "Our God (is the One True God)"; and if God does not allow people to defend against each other then Churches and Temples and Mosques wherein God's Name is Remembered (Commemorated) would fall to ruins; and God Champions those who Champion Him; truly, God is Powerful, Mighty.


*PS About War--not now--this is just an example of something that is hateful but turns out to be all for the best later on; and the flip side is that you may love something that turns out to be your undoing.
