Guidance on the word "war" in the poet's verse

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Allah is with you, Honorable Shaykh. The poet (may Allah have mercy on him) says: "So the Merciful One has protected you from anger, and from war, and from abuse, and from aggression." I hope you will clarify the two meanings of the word "war" and explain its usage?

Answer:
War, war, or otherwise war? "War" here means pressure, and hostility; war is hostility. As for "war" in the general sense, it is known to mean fighting.
