God only made it a message of hope, and to set your hearts at rest. Victory comes only from God. God is Mighty and Wise.
O you who believe! When you meet a force, stand firm, and remember God much, so that you may prevail.
And obey God and His Messenger, and do not dispute, lest you falter and lose your courage. And be steadfast. God is with the steadfast.
49. The hypocrites and those in whose hearts is sickness said, "Their religion has deluded these people." But whoever puts his trust in God-God is Mighty and Wise.
Clarify
The believing men and believing women are friends of one another. They advocate virtue, forbid evil, perform the prayers, practice charity, and obey God and His Messenger. These-God will have mercy on them. God is Noble and Wise.
Those who repent, those who worship, those who praise, those who journey, those who kneel, those who bow down, those who advocate righteousness and forbid evil, and those who keep God's limits-give good news to the believers.
God is bountiful towards the people, but most of them do not give thanks.
For them is good news in this life, and in the Hereafter. There is no alteration to the words of God. That is the supreme triumph.
No soul can believe except by God's leave; and He lays disgrace upon those who refuse to understand.
If God afflicts you with harm, none can remove it except He. And if He wants good for you, none can repel His grace. He makes it reach whomever He wills of His servants. He is the Forgiver, the Merciful.
Say, "O people, the truth has come to you from your Lord. Whoever accepts guidance is guided for his own soul; and whoever strays only strays to its detriment. I am not a guardian over you."
They wrap their chests to hide from Him. But even as they cover themselves with their clothes, He knows what they conceal and what they reveal. He knows what lies within the hearts.
And if We give him a taste of prosperity, after some adversity has afflicted him, he will say, "Troubles have gone away from me." He becomes excited and proud.
