and recall when allah promised you that one of the two hosts would fall to you and you wished that the one without arms should fall into your hands. but allah sought to prove by his words the truth to be true and to annihilate the unbelievers to the last remnant
وإذ يعدكم الله إحدى الطائفتين أنها لكم وتودون أن غير ذات الشوكة تكون لكم ويريد الله أن يحق الحق بكلماته ويقطع دابر الكافرين
