Form III verbal noun

Translation attempt: mortal fighting (fighting can be of different types, but qitaal necessarily involves killing and being killed, so fighting is an incomplete translation attempt)

Relevant form III rule

Effort/attempt to perform an act upon an object, in which case the idea of reciprocity is added, if the act being performed, is by necessity or accident a mutual one.
