Sura 8 Al-Anfal (The Spoils of War), ayah 43

  1. إِذْ يُرِيكَهُمُ اللَّهُ فِي مَنَامِكَ قَلِيلًا ۖ وَلَوْ أَرَاكَهُمْ كَثِيرًا لَفَشِلْتُمْ وَلَتَنَازَعْتُمْ فِي الْأَمْرِ وَلَٰكِنَّ اللَّهَ سَلَّمَ ۗ إِنَّهُ عَلِيمٌ بِذَاتِ الصُّدُورِ

    Translation by words

    إِذْ
    When
    يُرِيكَهُمُ
    you (where) shown them
    ٱللَّهُ
    (by) Allah
    فِى
    in
    مَنَامِكَ
    your dream
    قَلِيلًا
    (as) few,
    وَلَوْ
    and if
    أَرَىٰكَهُمْ
    He had shown them to you
    كَثِيرًا
    (as) many
    لَّفَشِلْتُمْ
    surely you would have lost courage
    وَلَتَنَٰزَعْتُمْ
    and surely you would have disputed
    فِى
    in
    ٱلْأَمْرِ
    the matter,
    وَلَٰكِنَّ
    but
    ٱللَّهَ
    Allah
    سَلَّمَ
    saved (you).
    إِنَّهُۥ
    Indeed, He
    عَلِيمٌۢ
    (is) All-Knower
    بِذَاتِ
    of what is in
    ٱلصُّدُورِ
    the breasts.

    (Remember, O Muhammad), when Allah showed them to you in your dream as few; and if He had shown them to you as many, you (believers) would have lost courage and would have disputed in the matter (of whether to fight), but Allah saved (you from that). Indeed, He is Knowing of that within the breasts.
