Al-Anfál 8:26 واذكروا اذ انتم قليل مستضعفون في الارض تخافون ان يتخطفكم الناس فاواكم وايدكم بنصره ورزقكم من الطيبات لعلكم تشكرون ٢٦
وَٱذۡكُرُوٓاْ
إِذۡ
أَنتُمۡ
قَلِيلٞ
مُّسۡتَضۡعَفُونَ
فِي
ٱلۡأَرۡضِ
تَخَافُونَ
أَن
يَتَخَطَّفَكُمُ
ٱلنَّاسُ
فَـَٔاوَىٰكُمۡ
وَأَيَّدَكُم
بِنَصۡرِهِۦ
وَرَزَقَكُم
مِّنَ
ٱلطَّيِّبَٰتِ
لَعَلَّكُمۡ
تَشۡكُرُونَ
