Al-Anfál 8:19 ان تستفتحوا فقد جاءكم الفتح وان تنتهوا فهو خير لكم وان تعودوا نعد ولن تغني عنكم فيتكم شييا ولو كثرت وان الله مع المومنين ١٩
إِن
تَسۡتَفۡتِحُواْ
فَقَدۡ
جَآءَكُمُ
ٱلۡفَتۡحُۖ
وَإِن
تَنتَهُواْ
فَهُوَ
خَيۡرٞ
لَّكُمۡۖ
وَإِن
تَعُودُواْ
نَعُدۡ
وَلَن
تُغۡنِيَ
عَنكُمۡ
فِئَتُكُمۡ
شَيۡـٔٗا
وَلَوۡ
كَثُرَتۡ
وَأَنَّ
ٱللَّهَ
مَعَ
ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ
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.
