فَلَمۡ تَقۡتُلُوهُمۡ وَلَٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ قَتَلَهُمۡۚ وَمَا رَمَيۡتَ إِذۡ رَمَيۡتَ وَلَٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ رَمَىٰ وَلِيُبۡلِيَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ مِنۡهُ بَلَآءً حَسَنًاۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٞ
(8:17) So the fact is that it was not you, but it was Allah Who killed them;
and it was not you when you threw [sand at them], but it was Allah Who threw
it,4 (and the believers were employed for the task) that He might
cause the believers to successfully pass through this test. Allah is All-Hearing,
All-Knowing.

ذَٰلِكُمۡ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ مُوهِنُ كَيۡدِ ٱلۡكَٰفِرِينَ
(8:18) This is His manner of dealing with you. As for the unbelievers, Allah
will surely undermine their designs.

إِن تَسۡتَفۡتِحُواْ فَقَدۡ جَآءَكُمُ ٱلۡفَتۡحُۖ وَإِن تَنتَهُواْ فَهُوَ خَيۡرٞ لَّكُمۡۖ وَإِن تَعُودُواْ نَعُدۡ وَلَن تُغۡنِيَ عَنكُمۡ فِئَتُكُمۡ شَيۡـٔٗا وَلَوۡ كَثُرَتۡ وَأَنَّ ٱللَّهَ مَعَ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ
(8:19) (Tell the unbelievers:) 'If you have sought a judgement, then surely
a judgement has come to you. 5 And if you desist from disobedience,
it is all the better for you. But if you revert to your mischief, We will again
chastise you; and your host, howsoever numerous, will never be of any avail
to you. Know well, Allah is with the believers.'
