Footnotes
1 i.e., young or old, riding or walking, in ease or in hardship - in all circumstances and conditions.
Go forth, light and heavy!, that is, energetically or not; it is also said [to mean], [go forth] strong or weak, or rich or poor - but this was abrogated by the verse, The weak would not be at fault . [Q. 9:91]. Struggle in the way of God with your possessions and your lives: that is better for you, if only you knew, that it is better for you; so do not sink down heavily.
