Who are those faithful people who dare take this power of hadeed into their hands to fight out those who want to obstruct the established deen of Allah, … who wants to perpetuate the system of tyranny, of exploitation or of discrimination? Then you have to fight them out. So this ayah, as I told you, is very clear, rather naked ayah on the revolutionary process that even force is to be used. Don’t hesitate to say that actually.

And they are being killed also. They are laying down their own lives. They are being martyred.
