The Qur'an only authorizes attacking first in the case of preemptive war, that is, if there is incontrovertible evidence an enemy attack is imminent. Also, the equivalent in Arabic of "fight" in the Qur'an is qatala', which literally means offensive action from both sides. Murdering innocents just doesn't exist anywhere in reliable literature.
Other fact: any individual is explicitly forbidden to go to jihad if his parents don't allow him to. Now think about how many cases you heard of, about people fleeing their families to some ME country, thinking they are the most fervent Muslims.....
Liar. Qatala -قتل- literally translates to "killed".
It doesn't mean offense from both sides; it's not even related to offense from both sides.
Qatala means "killed". It's written like this "قتل".
Offensive action from both sides is a complex sentence that obeys the language rules just like in this verse:
Quote:Quran, Sura 2
https://quran.ksu.edu.sa/index.php?l=en#...rans=en_sh
(190 ) Fight in the way of Allah those who fight you but do not transgress. Indeed. Allah does not like transgressors.
Writing it in Arabic, from my Arabic keyboard:
و قاتلوا في سبيل الله الذين يقاتلونكم ولا تعتدوا انه لا يحب المعتدين
