Verse meaning
This is the verse translation, not a definition of the individual word.
And kill them wherever you find them[1], and drive them out from where they drove you out[2], for persecution[3] is far worse than killing. But do not fight them at the Sacred Mosque unless they fight you there. However, if they fight you, then kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers.
