8:17

فَلَمْ And not تَقْتُلُوهُمْ you kill them وَلَـٰكِنَّ but ٱللَّهَ Allah قَتَلَهُمْ ۚ killed them وَمَا And not رَمَيْتَ you threw إِذْ when رَمَيْتَ you threw وَلَـٰكِنَّ but ٱللَّهَ Allah رَمَىٰ ۚ threw وَلِيُبْلِىَ and that He may test ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ the believers مِنْهُ from Him بَلَآءً (with) a trial حَسَنًا ۚ good إِنَّ Indeed ٱللَّهَ Allah سَمِيعٌ (is) All-Hearing عَلِيمٌۭ All-Knowing ١٧

And you did not kill them, but it was Allāh who killed them. And you threw not, [O Muḥammad], when you threw, but it was Allāh who threw that He might test the believers with a good test. Indeed, Allāh is Hearing and Knowing.

ذَٰلِكُمْ That (is the case) وَأَنَّ and that ٱللَّهَ Allah (is) مُوهِنُ one who makes weak كَيْدِ (the) plan ٱلْكَـٰفِرِينَ (of) the disbelievers ١٨

8:19

إِن If تَسْتَفْتِحُوا۟ you ask for victory فَقَدْ then certainly جَآءَكُمُ has come to you ٱلْفَتْحُ ۖ the victory وَإِن And if تَنتَهُوا۟ you desist فَهُوَ then it (is) خَيْرٌۭ good لَّكُمْ ۖ for you وَإِن but if تَعُودُوا۟ you return نَعُدْ We will return (too) وَلَن And never تُغْنِىَ will avail عَنكُمْ you فِئَتُكُمْ your forces شَيْـًۭٔا anything وَلَوْ even if كَثُرَتْ (they are) numerous وَأَنَّ And that ٱللَّهَ Allah مَعَ (is) with ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ the believers ١٩

If you [disbelievers] seek the decision [i.e., victory] - the decision [i.e., defeat] has come to you. And if you desist [from hostilities], it is best for you; but if you return [to war], We will return, and never will you be availed by your [large] company at all, even if it should increase; and [that is] because Allāh is with the believers.

۞ إِنَّ Indeed شَرَّ worst ٱلدَّوَآبِّ (of) the living creatures عِندَ near ٱللَّهِ Allah ٱلصُّمُّ (are) the deaf ٱلْبُكْمُ the dumb ٱلَّذِينَ those who لَا (do) not يَعْقِلُونَ use (their) intellect ٢٢

8:23

وَلَوْ And if عَلِمَ (had) known ٱللَّهُ Allah فِيهِمْ in them خَيْرًۭا any good لَّأَسْمَعَهُمْ ۖ surely, He (would) have made them hear وَلَوْ And if أَسْمَعَهُمْ He had made them hear لَتَوَلَّوا۟ surely they would have turned away وَّهُم while they مُّعْرِضُونَ (were) averse ٢٣

Had Allāh known any good in them, He would have made them hear. And if He had made them hear, they would [still] have turned away, while they were refusing.

وَٱتَّقُوا۟ And fear فِتْنَةًۭ a trial لَّا not تُصِيبَنَّ which will afflict ٱلَّذِينَ those who ظَلَمُوا۟ do wrong مِنكُمْ among you خَآصَّةًۭ ۖ exclusively وَٱعْلَمُوٓا۟ And know أَنَّ that ٱللَّهَ Allah شَدِيدُ (is) severe ٱلْعِقَابِ (in) the penalty ٢٥
