47.4-6

فَاِذَا لَقِیْتُمُ الَّذِیْنَ كَفَرُوْا فَضَرْبَ الرِّقَابِؕ-حَتّٰۤى اِذَاۤ اَثْخَنْتُمُوْهُمْ فَشُدُّوا الْوَثَاقَۙ-فَاِمَّا مَنًّۢا بَعْدُ وَ اِمَّا فِدَآءً حَتّٰى تَضَعَ الْحَرْبُ اَوْزَارَهَا ﲰذٰلِكَ ﳍوَ لَوْ یَشَآءُ اللّٰهُ لَانْتَصَرَ مِنْهُمْ وَ لٰـكِنْ لِّیَبْلُوَاۡ بَعْضَكُمْ بِبَعْضٍؕ-وَ الَّذِیْنَ قُتِلُوْا فِیْ سَبِیْلِ اللّٰهِ فَلَنْ یُّضِلَّ اَعْمَالَهُمْ(4) سَیَهْدِیْهِمْ وَ یُصْلِحُ بَالَهُمْۚ (5) وَ یُدْخِلُهُمُ الْجَنَّةَ عَرَّفَهَا لَهُمْ(6)

English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

So when you meet the disbelievers ˹in battle˺, strike their necks until when you have killed many of them, [1] then bind them (the prisoners) tightly, then after that either release them in good will or take a ransom until war lays down its burden. [2] This ˹is the command˺. And had Allah willed, He would certainly have taken retribution from them, however, (this command was given) so that He may test some of you through others. [3] And those who are killed in the way of Allah, He will never annul their deeds. Soon He will guide them and rectify their condition. And He will make them enter Paradise which He has made known to them.

Commentary

The limit of neutralising combatant disbelievers in theatres of war is relative to securing the lives and borders of the Muslims.
