9:5
فَإِذَا انسَلَخَ الأَشْهُرُ الْحُرُمُ فَاقْتُلُواْ الْمُشْرِكِينَ حَيْثُ وَجَدتُّمُوهُمْ وَخُذُوهُمْ وَاحْصُرُوهُمْ وَاقْعُدُواْ لَهُمْ كُلَّ مَرْصَدٍ فَإِن تَابُواْ وَأَقَامُواْ الصَّلاَةَ وَآتَوُاْ الزَّكَاةَ فَخَلُّواْ سَبِيلَهُمْ إِنَّ اللّهَ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ
Faitha insalakha alashhuru alhurumu faoqtuloo almushrikeena haythu wajadtumoohum wakhuthoohum waohsuroohum waoqAAudoo lahum kulla marsadin fain taboo waaqamoo alssalata waatawoo alzzakata fakhalloo sabeelahum inna Allaha ghafoorun raheemun
The Aya says:
So when the months that are forbidden to violate pass, then fight the polytheists wherever you find them and take them and confine them and sit in watch for them at every watching place. So, if they repent and establish the prayer and give the obligatory charity then clear their path. Indeed Allah is forgiving merciful.
It is important to remember that this is a passage about a particular incident at a particular time and therefore it cannot be taken out of that context of the polytheists breaking the treaty and killing the allies of the Muslim and therefore receive this threat and ruling. It is also important to point out just as the previous Aya mentioned that it does not apply to those polytheists who kept their treaty intact without breaching it.
Despite that it provides them with an out and that is repentance and also the Aya ends with the term that Allah is forgiving and merciful. Historically speaking, this is basically what happened and that they surrendered Mecca without much fighting or spilling of blood.
