بُشْرَى
وَلِتَطْمَئِنَّ
بِهِ
قُلُوبُكُمْ
وَمَا
النَّصْرُ
إِلَّا
مِنْ
عِندِ
اللَّهِ
إِنَّ
اللَّهَ
عَزِيزٌ
حَكِيمٌ
wa-mā jaʿalahu llāhu ʾillā bushrā wa-li-taṭmaʾinna bihī qulūbukum wa-mā n-naṣru ʾillā min ʿindi llāhi ʾinna llāha ʿazīzun ḥakīmun
Allah did not appoint it but as a good news, and to reassure your hearts. Victory comes only from Allah. Indeed Allah is all-mighty, all-wise.
— Ali Quli Qarai
Allah made it but a message of hope, and an assurance to your hearts: (in any case) there is no help except from Allah: and Allah is Exalted in Power, Wise.
