وَإِذْ And when زَيَّنَ made fair-seeming لَهُمُ to them ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنُ the Shaitaan أَعْمَـٰلَهُمْ their deeds وَقَالَ and he said لَا No (one) غَالِبَ (can) overcome لَكُمُ [to] you ٱلْيَوْمَ today مِنَ from ٱلنَّاسِ the people وَإِنِّى and indeed, I am جَارٌۭ a neighbor لَّكُمْ ۖ for you فَلَمَّا But when تَرَآءَتِ came in sight ٱلْفِئَتَانِ the two forces نَكَصَ he turned away عَلَىٰ on عَقِبَيْهِ his heels وَقَالَ and said إِنِّى Indeed, I am بَرِىٓءٌۭ free مِّنكُمْ of you إِنِّىٓ Indeed, I أَرَىٰ see مَا what لَا not تَرَوْنَ you see إِنِّىٓ indeed, I أَخَافُ [I] fear ٱللَّهَ ۚ Allah وَٱللَّهُ And Allah شَدِيدُ (is) severe ٱلْعِقَابِ (in) the penalty ٤٨
And [remember] when Satan made their deeds pleasing to them and said, "No one can overcome you today from among the people, and indeed, I am your protector." But when the two armies sighted each other, he turned on his heels and said, "Indeed, I am disassociated from you. Indeed, I see what you do not see; indeed, I fear Allāh. And Allāh is severe in penalty."
