Verse 152

وَلَقَدْ And certainly صَدَقَكُمُ fulfilled to you ٱللَّهُ Allah وَعْدَهُۥٓ His promise إِذْ when تَحُسُّونَهُم you were killing them بِإِذْنِهِۦ ۖ by His permission حَتَّىٰٓ until إِذَا when فَشِلْتُمْ you lost courage وَتَنَـٰزَعْتُمْ and you fell into dispute فِى concerning ٱلْأَمْرِ the order وَعَصَيْتُم and you disobeyed مِّنۢ from بَعْدِ after مَآ [what] أَرَىٰكُم He (had) shown you مَّا what تُحِبُّونَ ۚ you love مِنكُم Among you مَّن (are some) who يُرِيدُ desire ٱلدُّنْيَا the world وَمِنكُم and among you مَّن (are some) who يُرِيدُ desire ٱلْـَٔاخِرَةَ ۚ the Hereafter ثُمَّ Then صَرَفَكُمْ He diverted you عَنْهُمْ from them لِيَبْتَلِيَكُمْ ۖ so that He may test you وَلَقَدْ And surely عَفَا He forgave عَنكُمْ ۗ you وَٱللَّهُ And Allah ذُو (is the) Possessor فَضْلٍ (of) Bounty عَلَى for ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ the believers ١٥٢

And Allāh had certainly fulfilled His promise to you when you were killing them [i.e., the enemy] by His permission until [the time] when you lost courage and fell to disputing about the order [given by the Prophet (ﷺ)] and disobeyed after He had shown you that which you love. Among you are some who desire this world, and among you are some who desire the Hereafter. Then He turned you back from them [defeated] that He might test you. And He has already forgiven you, and Allāh is the possessor of bounty for the believers.
