فَلَمْ تَقْتُلُوهُمْ وَلَٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ قَتَلَهُمْ ۚ وَمَا رَمَيْتَ إِذْ رَمَيْتَ وَلَٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ رَمَىٰ ۚ وَلِيُبْلِىَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْهُ بَلَآءً حَسَنًا ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌۭ ﴿17﴾
Falam taqtuloohum wa laakinnal laaha qatalahum; wa maa ramaita iz ramaita wa laakinnal laaha ramaa; wa liyubliyal mu'mineena minhu balaaa'an hasanaa; innal laaha Samee'un Aleem
8:17. And you did not kill them, but it was Allah who killed them. And you threw not, [O Muhammad], when you threw, but it was Allah who threw that He might test the believers with a good test. Indeed, Allah is Hearing and Knowing.
تم لوگوں نے ان (کفار) کو قتل نہیں کیا بلکہ خدا نے انہیں قتل کیا۔ اور (اے محمدﷺ) جس وقت تم نے کنکریاں پھینکی تھیں تو وہ تم نے نہیں پھینکی تھیں بلکہ الله نے پھینکی تھیں۔ اس سے یہ غرض تھی کہ مومنوں کو اپنے (احسانوں) سے اچھی طرح آزمالے۔ بےشک خدا سنتا جانتا ہے
