ஆயினும், (பகைவர்களையோ அல்லது வேறெதையுமோ கொண்டு) நீங்கள் பயப்படும் நிலையில் இருந்தால், நடந்து கொண்டோ அல்லது சவாரி செய்து கொண்டோவாகிலும் தொழுது கொள்ளுங்கள்; பின்னர் நீங்கள் அச்சம் தீர்ந்ததும், நீங்கள் அறியாமல் இருந்ததை அவன் உங்களுக்கு அறிவித்ததைப் போன்று, (நிறைவுடன் தொழுது) அல்லாஹ்வை நினைவு கூறுங்கள்.
