According to search-discovered classical Islamic scholarship, the principle of 'Prepare Well' (Al-I'dad), derived from Surah Al-Anfal verse 60, is a foundational divine command for the Muslim community to achieve comprehensive readiness. Tafsir experts like Ibn Kathir and Al-Tabari explain that this is not merely a military directive but a holistic strategy. The verse's call to prepare 'all you can of strength (Quwwah)' is understood to encompass every form of power relevant to an era—including economic stability, technological innovation, intellectual excellence, social unity, and spiritual fortitude. The primary objective, as Al-Qurtubi notes, is deterrence ('turhibuna bihi'), aiming to prevent conflict by creating a just and formidable presence that discourages aggression from the enemies of God and the community. This Quranic concept establishes a proactive and responsible approach to defense, security, and the preservation of peace through strength.
