who can help you? It is in Allah that the believers should put their trust.}}49

lt has often been that a small group has, by Allah's grace, defeated a
large one: for Allah is with those who show fortitude.
}}3 You have already come across an instructive sign in the two armies
that encountered each other in battle (at Badr): one army fighting in
the way of Allah, and the other that of unbelievers. They saw with
their own eyes that one party was twice the number of the other.
But (the result of the battle has proved that) Allah succours with His
victory whomsoever He wills. In this there is surely a lesson for all
who have eyes to see. }7}646 Verily We bestowed Our favours on Moses and Aaron and We saved
both of them and their people from the great calamity. We helped
them, and they gained the upper hand (against their enemies).

Angels are descended to help the steadfast believers
Do not, then, either lose heart or grieve: for you will surely gain the
upper hand if you are true men of faith. If a wound has befallen you
a similar wound has already befallen the people who are opposed to
you. We make such movements to men in turn so that Allah might
mark out those who are the true men of faith and select martyrs
from among you (those who do really bear witness to the Truth): for
Allah does not love the wrong-doers. }}
All those who take Allah and His Messenger and those who believe as
their allies, should remember that the party of Allah will be victorious.}{
So if there are of you a hundred steadfast persons, they will
overcome two hundred, and if there are a thousand of you, they will
overcome two thousand with the Leave of Allah. Allah is with those
who have patience.}}25

And none knows the armies of your Lord but He.
If you are steadfast and you have piety, even though the enemy
should suddenly fall upon you, your Lord will help you with five
thousand marked angels. 6}16{ Those who say Allah is our Lord and then remain steadfast, upon
them descend angels (and say): Do not fear nor grieve, and receive
good tidings of Paradise which you were promised. We are your
companions in this world and in the Hereafter. There you shall have
all that you desire and all what you will ask for.

And none knows the armies of your Lord but He.

He it is Who strengthened you with His succour and the believers
and joined their hearts. Had you given away all the riches of the
earth you could not have joined their hearts, but it is Allah Who
joined their hearts. Indeed He is All-Mighty All-Wise. O Prophet!
Allah is sufficient for you and the believers who follow you.

Allah surely fulfilled His promise (of succour) when you were
slaying them by His leave until the moment when you flagged
and quarrelled among yourselves about the matter, and acted
against the order of (the Prophet) when He showed you what
you had intensely desired - for some among you sought this
world and some of you sought the Afterlife. Thereupon, in order
to put you to a test He turned you away from your foes. Still He
pardoned you after that for Allah is Bounteous to those who
believe. Recall when you were fleeing without casting even a
side glance at anyone, and the Messenger was calling out to you
from the rear. Then Allah requited you by inflicting grief after
grief upon you so as to instruct you neither to grieve for the
losses you might suffer nor for the afflictions that might befall
you. Allah knows all that you do. }55{ Surely those of them who turned their backs on the day when the
two armies met (at Uhud) did so because Satan made them slip
because of some of their lapses. But Allah has pardoned them; He is
All-Forgiving, All-Forbearing.

Some instructions for the believers
}}57
And how come when a calamity befell you, you began to ask: 'How has
this come about?' even though the enemy has suffered at your hands (in
the Battle of Badr) double what you have suffered! Say: This calamity has
been brought about by yourselves. Surely Allah is Ail-Powerful. What
befell you on the day when the two armies met was by the leave of
Allah, and in order that He might mark out those who believe and those
who are hypocrites. And when these hypocrites were asked: 'Come and
fight in the way of Allah', or (at least) 'defend yourselves', they
answered: 'If we but knew that there would be fighting, we would
certainly have followed. They were nearer then to infidelity than to faith.
They utter from their mouths what is not in their hearts. Allah knows
well what they conceal.

Trust in Allah Alone and not in great numbers or material
Believers! When you encounter (an enemy) force in battle, stand
firm and remember Allah much that you may triumph. And obey
Allah and His Messenger, and do not quarrel with one another lest
you should lose courage and your power depart. Be steadfast, surely
Allah is with those who remain steadfast. And be not like those who
came forth from their homes exulting, with a desire to be seen of
men, and hindering others from the way of Allah. Allah encompassesall that they do. }}14
Do not be faint of heart in pursuing these people: if you happen tosuffer harm they too are suffering just as you are, while you may
hope from Allah what they cannot hope for. Allah is All-Knowing, All-
Wise.

Trust in Allah but the compulsory readiness of the believers
Allah has helped you on many occasions before this; (recently you
witnessed the glory of His help on the day of the Battle of Hunain;
you were proud of your great numbers which had deluded you but it
availed you nothing and the earth, with all its vastness, became too
narrow for you, and turning your backs, you fled. Then Allah sent
down His sakinat (peace and tranquility) upon His Messenger and
the Believers and sent to your aid forces which you could not seeand chastised those who denied the Truth: for this is the due
recompense of those who deny the Truth. }-}6 Say to them, "Nothing (good or bad) can befall us except that whichAllah has destined for us: Allah is our Guardian and the Believers
should put their trust in Him alone."

Make ready for an encounter against them all the forces and well-
readied horses you can muster that you may overawe the enemies

So, don't be faint-hearted and do not cry for peace (from the
enemies of Islam)
But if they (enemies) incline to peace, incline you as well to it
of Allah and your own enemies and others besides them of whom
you are unaware but of whom Allah is aware. Whatever you may
spend in the cause of Allah shall be fully repaid to you, and you shall
not be wronged.
7}35{
O Believers! obey Allah and obey the Messenger and do not cause
your works to be nullified. Verily Allah will not forgive those who
disbelieved and barred others from Allah's Way and clung to theirunbelief until their death. So, be not faint-hearted and do not cry for
peace (from the enemies of Islam). You shall prevail. Allah is with
you and will not bring your works to nought.
}}62 If they (enemies) incline to peace, incline you as well to it, and trust
in Allah. Surely He is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.And should they seekto deceive you, Allah is sufficient for you.
