Surah Ash-Shuraa — Ayah 39 (42:39)

English translation (Saheeh International)

And those who, when tyranny strikes them, they retaliate [in a just manner].¹

1. - Restoring their rights and not allowing aggressors to take advantage of them out of weakness.

Brief commentary

Those who when afflicted by oppression, they defend themselves, in honour and respect for themselves, if the oppressor is not worthy of pardon. This defence is justified, especially if there is no benefit in pardon.
