يٰۗاَيُّہَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوا اذْكُرُوْا نِعْمَۃَ اللہِ عَلَيْكُمْ اِذْ جَاۗءَتْكُمْ جُنُوْدٌ فَاَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْہِمْ رِيْحًا وَّجُنُوْدًا لَّمْ تَرَوْہَا۝۰ۭ وَكَانَ اللہُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُوْنَ بَصِيْرًا۝۹ۚ
Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo othkuroo niAAmata Allahi AAalaykum ith jaatkum junoodun faarsalna AAalayhim reehan wajunoodan lam tarawha wakana Allahu bima taAAmaloona baseeran

English

Ahmed Ali

O you who believe, remember the favours of God to you when an army came against you and We sent a wind against them and forces that you did not see. But God sees all that you do.

9

اِذْ جَاۗءُوْكُمْ مِّنْ فَوْقِكُمْ وَمِنْ اَسْفَلَ مِنْكُمْ وَاِذْ زَاغَتِ الْاَبْصَارُ وَبَلَغَتِ الْقُلُوْبُ الْحَـنَاجِرَ وَتَظُنُّوْنَ بِاللہِ الظُّنُوْنَا۝۱۰
Ith jaookum min fawqikum wamin asfala minkum waith zaghati alabsaru wabalaghati alquloobu alhanajira watathunnoona biAllahi alththunoona

English

Ahmed Ali

When they came upon you from above and below you, when the eyes were stupefied with horror, and hearts jumped to the throats, and you made wild suppositions about God.

10

ہُنَالِكَ ابْتُلِيَ الْمُؤْمِنُوْنَ وَزُلْزِلُوْا زِلْزَالًا شَدِيْدًا۝۱۱
Hunalika ibtuliya almuminoona wazulziloo zilzalan shadeedan

English

Ahmed Ali

The faithful were sorely tried there and were shaken completely,

11

وَاِذْ يَقُوْلُ الْمُنٰفِقُوْنَ وَالَّذِيْنَ فِيْ قُلُوْبِہِمْ مَّرَضٌ مَّا وَعَدَنَا اللہُ وَرَسُوْلُہٗۗ اِلَّا غُرُوْرًا۝۱۲
Waith yaqoolu almunafiqoona waallatheena fee quloobihim maradun ma waAAadana Allahu warasooluhu illa ghurooran

English

Ahmed Ali

When the hypocrites and those who were filled with doubt, said: "The promise of God and His Apostle was nothing but deceit."

12

وَاِذْ قَالَتْ طَّاۗىِٕفَۃٌ مِّنْہُمْ يٰۗاَہْلَ يَثْرِبَ لَا مُقَامَ لَكُمْ فَارْجِعُوْا۝۰ۚ وَيَسْتَاْذِنُ فَرِيْقٌ مِّنْہُمُ النَّبِيَّ يَقُوْلُوْنَ اِنَّ بُيُوْتَنَا عَوْرَۃٌ۝۰ۭۛ وَمَا ہِىَ بِعَوْرَۃٍ۝۰ۚۛ اِنْ يُّرِيْدُوْنَ اِلَّا فِرَارًا۝۱۳
Waith qalat taifatun minhum ya ahla yathriba la muqama lakum fairjiAAoo wayastathinu fareequn minhumu alnnabiyya yaqooloona inna buyootana AAawratun wama hiya biAAawratin in yureedoona illa firaran

English

Ahmed Ali

When a section of them said: "O people of Yathrib, there is no place for you here, turn back;" and a section of them asked leave of the Prophet, saying: "Our homes lie exposed," -- while they were not exposed. Their only intention was to run away.

13

وَلَوْ دُخِلَتْ عَلَيْہِمْ مِّنْ اَقْطَارِہَا ثُمَّ سُىِٕلُوا الْفِتْنَۃَ لَاٰتَوْہَا وَمَا تَلَبَّثُوْا بِہَاۗ اِلَّا يَسِيْرًا۝۱۴
Walaw dukhilat AAalayhim min aqtariha thumma suiloo alfitnata laatawha wama talabbathoo biha illa yaseeran

English

Ahmed Ali

If the (enemy) had entered the city from every side and asked them to rise in revolt, they would have done so, and not hesitated but a little;

14

وَلَقَدْ كَانُوْا عَاہَدُوا اللہَ مِنْ قَبْلُ لَا يُوَلُّوْنَ الْاَدْبَارَ۝۰ۭ وَكَانَ عَہْدُ اللہِ مَسْـُٔــوْلًا۝۱۵
Walaqad kanoo AAahadoo Allaha min qablu la yuwalloona aladbara wakana AAahdu Allahi masoolan

English

Ahmed Ali

Whereas earlier they had made a promise to God that they would never turn their backs; and a promise made to God is answerable.

15

قُلْ لَّنْ يَّنْفَعَكُمُ الْفِرَارُ اِنْ فَرَرْتُمْ مِّنَ الْمَوْتِ اَوِ الْقَتْلِ وَاِذًا لَّا تُمَـتَّعُوْنَ اِلَّا قَلِيْلًا۝۱۶
Qul lan yanfaAAakumu alfiraru in farartum mina almawti awi alqatli waithan la tumattaAAoona illa qaleelan

English

Ahmed Ali

Say: "Of no gain will be your running away if you run from death or being killed, even then you will enjoy the good things of life but only for a while."

16

قُلْ مَنْ ذَا الَّذِيْ يَعْصِمُكُمْ مِّنَ اللہِ اِنْ اَرَادَ بِكُمْ سُوْۗءًا اَوْ اَرَادَ بِكُمْ رَحْمَۃً۝۰ۭ وَلَا يَجِدُوْنَ لَہُمْ مِّنْ دُوْنِ اللہِ وَلِيًّا وَّلَا نَصِيْرًا۝۱۷
Qul man tha allathee yaAAsimukum mina Allahi in arada bikum sooan aw arada bikum rahmatan wala yajidoona lahum min dooni Allahi waliyyan wala naseeran

English

Ahmed Ali

Say: "Who will save you from God if He decide to afflict you or show you His mercy?" They will never find a friend or helper apart from God.

17

قَدْ يَعْلَمُ اللہُ الْمُعَوِّقِيْنَ مِنْكُمْ وَالْقَاۗىِٕلِيْنَ لِاِخْوَانِہِمْ ہَلُمَّ اِلَيْنَا۝۰ۚ وَلَا يَاْتُوْنَ الْبَاْسَ اِلَّا قَلِيْلًا۝۱۸ۙ
Qad yaAAlamu Allahu almuAAawwiqeena minkum waalqaileena liikhwanihim halumma ilayna wala yatoona albasa illa qaleelan
