god made them appear in your dream as few. had he made them appear as many you would have lost heart and disputed in the matter. but god saved the situation. he knows what the hearts contain.
إذ يريكهم الله في منامك قليلا ولو أراكهم كثيرا لفشلتم ولتنازعتم في الأمر ولكن الله سلم إنه عليم بذات الصدور
