71. " O' You who have Faith Take your precautions (keep weapons with your self) Then either advance in parties or march off all together."
Commentary:
In the previous verse, the subject was upon the obedience of Allah, the leadership of the immaculateones, and sovereignty of the Prophet (p.b.u.h.) In this verse. The words imply of being careful of the necessity of power, intelligence and a marcial preparation for the Islamic community and for the divine leadership.

The Arabic word /hizr/ means: 'being alert', 'being on the look out', and 'The means of defence'.
The Qur'anic term /thubaat/ is the plural form of /thubat/ which means: 'separate parts of forces'.
Explanation:
1. Muslims should be prepared and alert. They should be cognizant of the plams, number of forces, the sort of meapons, spirit, and internal and external co-operation of the enemy. Then they should design their affairs and act accordingly.
2. Muslims must be trained in military courses.
" O' You who have Faith Take your precautions (keep weapons with yourselves), ..."
3. Muslims should be mobilized.
"... or march off all together."
4. Muslims have to utilize the different styles of challenging with enemy.
"... Then either advance in parties or march off all together."
5. Muslims must protect the bounds of their country. Acting upon the message of this verse is the secret of honour and glory, while neglecting it is the mystery of the fall and failure of Muslims.
