Grammar Rules

Conjunction وَ (and)
وَلَوْ (And if) starts with وَ, the most common Arabic word — it means "and".
We add "and" to connect this to what came before.
Conditional (if/when)
وَلَوْ (And if) introduces a condition — "if this happens, then that happens".
We translate it as "if" or "when".

Sahih International

And if they had been entered upon from all its [surrounding] regions and fitnah [i.e., disbelief] had been demanded of them, they would have done it and not hesitated over it except briefly.
