| 26. And remember when you were a few and deemed weak in the land, and were in fear lest people should snatch you away, but HE sheltered you and strengthened you with HIS help, and provided you with good things that you might be thankful. 27. O ye who believe ! prove not false to ALLAH and the Messenger, nor betray your trusts knowingly. 28. And know that your possessions and your children are but a trial and that it is ALLAH with Whom is a great reward. 29. O ye who believe ! if you do your duty to ALLAH, HE will grant you a distinction and will remove your evils from you and will forgive you; and ALLAH is the Lord of great bounty. 30. And remember when the disbelievers devised plans against thee that they might put thee in confinement or slay thee or expel thee. And they planned and ALLAH also planned, and ALLAH is the Best of planners. 31. And when OUR verses are recited to them, they say, `We have heard. If we wished we could certainly say the like of it. This is nothing but mere tales of the ancients' 32. And remember the time when they said, `O ALLAH, if this be indeed the truth from Thee, then rain down upon us stones from heaven or bring down upon us a grievous punishment.' 33. But ALLAH would not punish them while thou wast among them, and ALLAH would not punish them while they sought forgiveness. |
