Chapter 8, Page 179, Juz 9

11. Remember when He gave you sleep as a reassurance from Him, and sent down water from the sky to cleanse you, to remove Satan’s pollution from you, to make your hearts strong and your feet firm. 12. Your Lord revealed to the angels: ‘I am with you: give the believers firmness; I shall put terror into the hearts of the disbelievers- strike above their necks and strike all their fingertips.’ 13. That was because they opposed God and His Messenger, and if anyone opposes God and His Messenger, God punishes them severely- 14. ‘That is what you get! Taste that!’––and the torment of the Fire awaits the disbelievers. 15. Believers, when you meet the disbelievers in battle, never turn your backs on them: 16. if anyone does so on such a day- unless maneuvring to fight or to join a fighting group- he incurs the wrath of God, and Hell will be his home, a wretched destination! 17. It was not you who killed them but God, and when you [Prophet] threw [sand at them] it was not your throw [that defeated them] but God’s, to do the believers a favour: God is all seeing and all knowing- 18. ‘That is what you get!’––and God will weaken the disbelievers’ designs. 19. [Disbelievers], if you were seeking a decision, now you have witnessed one: if you stop here, it will be better for you. If you return, so shall We, and your forces, though greater in number, will be of no use to you. God is with the believers.

- M.A.S. Abdel Haleem
