أَعَلَيْنَا جُنَاحُ كِنْدَةَ أَنْ يَغْنَمَ غَازِيَهُمْ وَمِنَّا الْجَزَاءُ
Translation: Are we to bear Kinda’s offence—so that their raiders win spoils while we pay the penalty?
The interrogative a-ʿalaynā expresses protest. Junāḥ Kinda names an offence attributed to Kinda; an yaghnama ghāzīyahum presents their raiders’ gain, whereas wa-minnā al-jazāʾ imagines punishment extracted from the speaker’s group.
The contrast—their spoil, our penalty—is the point. The question challenges transferring responsibility rather than neutrally asking who fought.
