In The Name of Allah: Section 16. 149. O ye who believe! If ye obey the Unbelievers, They will drive you back On your heels, and ye Will turn back (from Faith) To you own loss. 150. Nay, Allah is your Protector, And He is the best of helpers. 151. Soon shall We cast terror Into the hearts of the Unbelievers, For that they joined companions With Allah, for which He had sent No authority; their abode Willl be the Fire; and evil Is the home of the wrongdoers! 152. Allah did indeed Fulfill His promise to you When ye with His permission Were about to annihilate Your enemy until ye flinched And fell to disputing About the order, And disobeyed it After He brought you in sight (Of the Booty) which ye covet. Among you are some That hanker after this world And some that desire The Hereafter. Then did He Divert you from your foes In order to test you, But He forgave you! For Allah is full of grace To those who believe. 153. Behold! ye were climbing up The high ground, without even Casting a side glance At anyone, and the Messenger In your rear was calling you Back. There did Allah give you one distress after another By way of requital, To teach you not to grieve For (the booty) that had escaped you And for (the ill) that had befallen you. For Allah is well aware Of all that ye do. 154. After (the excitement) Of the distress, He sent down Calm on a ban d of you Overcome with slumber, While another band Was stirred to anxiety By their own feelings, Moved by wrong suspicious Of Allah suspicions due To Ignorance. They said: “What after is this of ours?” Say thou: “Indeed, this affair Is wholly Allah’s” They hide In their minds what they Dare not reveal to thee. They say (to themselves) “If we had had anything to do with this affair, We should not have been In the slaughter here.” Say: “Even if you had remained In your homes, those For whom death was decreed Would certainly have gone forth to the place of their death”; but (all this way) That Allah might test What is in your breast And purge what is In your hearts. For Allah knoweth well The secrets of you hearts. 155. Those of you Who turned back On the day the two hosts Met it was Satan Who caused them to fail, Because of some (evil) They had done. But Allah has blotted out (their fault): For Allah is Oft-Forgiving. Most Forbearing.
