131. This means eradicating their polytheism through Tauheed (Oneness of Allah Almighty). their sins through piety and purity, and evil through goodness. darkness through light. objections through proofs, their cruelty through mercy and benevolence. their moral deficiencies through your lofty conduct. ignorance through knowledge, cruelty through Jihad (Holy War).

In short, there is great dimensional scope in this. verse In this word "best" hot, cold.. propagation. Jihad (striving in the path of Allah) severe punishments, etc. all these are included.

 The operation performed by the surgeon on the patient is the best form of obtaining a cure.    Thus, this verse is not abrogated but is firm and everlasting.
