وَٱقۡتُلُوهُمۡ حَیۡثُ ثَقِفۡتُمُوهُمۡ وَأَخۡرِجُوهُم مِّنۡ حَیۡثُ أَخۡرَجُوكُمۡۚ وَٱلۡفِتۡنَةُ أَشَدُّ مِنَ ٱلۡقَتۡلِۚ وَلَا تُقَـٰتِلُوهُمۡ عِندَ ٱلۡمَسۡجِدِ ٱلۡحَرَامِ حَتَّىٰ یُقَـٰتِلُوكُمۡ فِیهِۖ فَإِن قَـٰتَلُوكُمۡ فَٱقۡتُلُوهُمۡۗ كَذَ ٰلِكَ جَزَاۤءُ ٱلۡكَـٰفِرِینَ ١٩١
Umm Muhammad (Sahih International):
And kill them wherever you overtake them and expel them from wherever they have expelled you, and fitnah is worse than killing. And do not fight them at al-Masjid al- iaram until they fight you there. But if they fight you, then kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers
مَّلۡعُونِینَۖ أَیۡنَمَا ثُقِفُوۤا۟ أُخِذُوا۟ وَقُتِّلُوا۟ تَقۡتِیلࣰا ٦١
Umm Muhammad (Sahih International):
Accursed wherever they are found, [being] seized and massacred completely
ضُرِبَتۡ عَلَیۡهِمُ ٱلذِّلَّةُ أَیۡنَ مَا ثُقِفُوۤا۟ إِلَّا بِحَبۡلࣲ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ وَحَبۡلࣲ مِّنَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَبَاۤءُو بِغَضَبࣲ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ وَضُرِبَتۡ عَلَیۡهِمُ ٱلۡمَسۡكَنَةُۚ ذَ ٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمۡ كَانُوا۟ یَكۡفُرُونَ بِءَایَـٰتِ ٱللَّهِ وَیَقۡتُلُونَ ٱلۡأَنۢبِیَاۤءَ بِغَیۡرِ حَقࣲّۚ ذَ ٰلِكَ بِمَا عَصَوا۟ وَّكَانُوا۟ یَعۡتَدُونَ ١١٢
Umm Muhammad (Sahih International):
They have been put under humiliation [by Allah ] wherever they are overtaken, except for a covenant from Allah and a rope from the Muslims. And they have drawn upon themselves anger from Allah and have been put under destitution. That is because they disbelieved in the verses of Allah and killed the prophets without right. That is because they disobeyed and [habitually] transgressed

Verb
سَتَجِدُونَ ءَاخَرِینَ یُرِیدُونَ أَن یَأۡمَنُوكُمۡ وَیَأۡمَنُوا۟ قَوۡمَهُمۡ كُلَّ مَا رُدُّوۤا۟ إِلَى ٱلۡفِتۡنَةِ أُرۡكِسُوا۟ فِیهَاۚ فَإِن لَّمۡ یَعۡتَزِلُوكُمۡ وَیُلۡقُوۤا۟ إِلَیۡكُمُ ٱلسَّلَمَ وَیَكُفُّوۤا۟ أَیۡدِیَهُمۡ فَخُذُوهُمۡ وَٱقۡتُلُوهُمۡ حَیۡثُ ثَقِفۡتُمُوهُمۡۚ وَأُو۟لَـٰۤىِٕكُمۡ جَعَلۡنَا لَكُمۡ عَلَیۡهِمۡ سُلۡطَـٰنࣰا مُّبِینࣰا ٩١
Umm Muhammad (Sahih International):
You will find others who wish to obtain security from you and [to] obtain security from their people. Every time they are returned to [the influence of] disbelief, they fall back into it. So if they do not withdraw from you or offer you peace or restrain their hands, then seize them and kill them wherever you overtake them. And those - We have made for you against them a clear authorization
إِن یَثۡقَفُوكُمۡ یَكُونُوا۟ لَكُمۡ أَعۡدَاۤءࣰ وَیَبۡسُطُوۤا۟ إِلَیۡكُمۡ أَیۡدِیَهُمۡ وَأَلۡسِنَتَهُم بِٱلسُّوۤءِ وَوَدُّوا۟ لَوۡ تَكۡفُرُونَ ٢
Umm Muhammad (Sahih International):
