Then, after sorrow, He let peace fall upon you, in the shape of a slumber which overtook some of you, while others, who cared mainly for themselves, entertained wrong thoughts about God - thoughts of pagan ignorance. They ask: ‘Have we any say in the matter?’ Say: ‘All power of decision rests with God’. They conceal in their minds what they do not disclose to you. They say: ‘Had we had any say in the matter, we should not have been slaughtered here’. Say: ‘Had you stayed in your homes, those of you who were destined to be killed would have gone to their deathbeds’. For it was God’s will to put to a test all that you entertain in your minds and to render pure what you may have in your hearts, God is fully aware of what is in people’s bosoms.
