قُلْ
هَلْ
تَرَبَّصُونَ
بِنَا
إِلَّا
إِحْدَى
الْحُسْنَيَيْنِ
وَنَحْنُ
نَتَرَبَّصُ
بِكُمْ
أَن
يُصِيبَكُمُ
اللَّهُ
بِعَذَابٍ
مِّنْ
عِندِهِ
أَوْ
بِأَيْدِينَا
فَتَرَبَّصُوا
إِنَّا
مَعَكُم
مُّتَرَبِّصُونَ

Say: "Can you expect for us (any fate) other than one of two glorious things- (Martyrdom or victory)? But we can expect for you either that Allah will send his punishment from Himself, or by our hands. So wait (expectant); we too will wait with you."
— Abdullah Yusufali
Say, ‘Do you not await one of the two excellent things to happen to us? But we await that Allah shall visit on you a punishment, from Him, or by our hands. So wait! We too are waiting along with you.’
