Al-Jalalayn Commentary

All that they said when their prophet had been killed while they stood their ground and were steadfast was ‘Our Lord forgive us our sins and our excesses our overstepping the bounds in our affairs a declaration of the fact that what had befallen them was the result of their evil actions and a humbling of their selves and make firm our feet with strength for the struggle and help us against the unbelieving folk’.

(Their cry) the cry of the believers after the killing of their prophet (was only that they said: Our Lord) O our Lord! (Forgive us for our sins) sins other than the enormities (and wasted efforts) by committing grave sins, i.e. enormities, (make our foothold sure) in war, (and give us victory over the disbelieving folk).
