سُنَّةَ اللَّهِ الَّتي قَد خَلَت مِن قَبلُ ۖ وَلَن تَجِدَ لِسُنَّةِ اللَّهِ تَبديلًا

This is the consistent way of God, unchanging throughout history. You will never find a change in God’s way.

وَهُوَ الَّذي كَفَّ أَيدِيَهُم عَنكُم وَأَيدِيَكُم عَنهُم بِبَطنِ مَكَّةَ مِن بَعدِ أَن أَظفَرَكُم عَلَيهِم ۚ وَكانَ اللَّهُ بِما تَعمَلونَ بَصيرًا

It is He who withheld their hands from you, and your hands from them, in the heart of Mecca, after He had made you victorious over them. God is ever watchful of your actions.

هُمُ الَّذينَ كَفَروا وَصَدّوكُم عَنِ المَسجِدِ الحَرامِ وَالهَديَ مَعكوفًا أَن يَبلُغَ مَحِلَّهُ ۚ وَلَولا رِجالٌ مُؤمِنونَ وَنِساءٌ مُؤمِناتٌ لَم تَعلَموهُم أَن تَطَئوهُم فَتُصيبَكُم مِنهُم مَعَرَّةٌ بِغَيرِ عِلمٍ ۖ لِيُدخِلَ اللَّهُ في رَحمَتِهِ مَن يَشاءُ ۚ لَو تَزَيَّلوا لَعَذَّبنَا الَّذينَ كَفَروا مِنهُم عَذابًا أَليمًا

They are the ones who disbelieved, barred you from the Sacred Mosque, and prevented the offering from reaching its destination. If not for certain believing men and women, unknown to you, whom you might have inadvertently harmed, God would have allowed harm to befall them. But God brings into His mercy whom He wills. Had they been separated, We would’ve punished those among them who disbelieved with a great punishment.

إِذ جَعَلَ الَّذينَ كَفَروا في قُلوبِهِمُ الحَمِيَّةَ حَمِيَّةَ الجاهِلِيَّةِ فَأَنزَلَ اللَّهُ سَكينَتَهُ عَلىٰ رَسولِهِ وَعَلَى المُؤمِنينَ وَأَلزَمَهُم كَلِمَةَ التَّقوىٰ وَكانوا أَحَقَّ بِها وَأَهلَها ۚ وَكانَ اللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيءٍ عَليمًا

The unbelievers harbor deep-seated prejudice—the zealotry of the Age of Ignorance. Yet, God sent down His tranquility upon His Messenger and the believers, and He committed them to the word of righteousness, which they were most worthy and deserving of. God is fully aware of everything.

لَقَد صَدَقَ اللَّهُ رَسولَهُ الرُّؤيا بِالحَقِّ ۖ لَتَدخُلُنَّ المَسجِدَ الحَرامَ إِن شاءَ اللَّهُ آمِنينَ مُحَلِّقينَ رُءوسَكُم وَمُقَصِّرينَ لا تَخافونَ ۖ فَعَلِمَ ما لَم تَعلَموا فَجَعَلَ مِن دونِ ذٰلِكَ فَتحًا قَريبًا

God has fulfilled His Messenger’s vision in truth: “You will enter the Sacred Mosque, if God wills, in security, with your heads shaven or hair shortened, without fear.” He knew what you knew not, and besides that, He has prepared a close victory.

مُحَمَّدٌ رَسولُ اللَّهِ ۚ وَالَّذينَ مَعَهُ أَشِدّاءُ عَلَى الكُفّارِ رُحَماءُ بَينَهُم ۖ تَراهُم رُكَّعًا سُجَّدًا يَبتَغونَ فَضلًا مِنَ اللَّهِ وَرِضوانًا ۖ سيماهُم في وُجوهِهِم مِن أَثَرِ السُّجودِ ۚ ذٰلِكَ مَثَلُهُم فِي التَّوراةِ ۚ وَمَثَلُهُم فِي الإِنجيلِ كَزَرعٍ أَخرَجَ شَطأَهُ فَآزَرَهُ فَاستَغلَظَ فَاستَوىٰ عَلىٰ سوقِهِ يُعجِبُ الزُّرّاعَ لِيَغيظَ بِهِمُ الكُفّارَ ۗ وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الَّذينَ آمَنوا وَعَمِلُوا الصّالِحاتِ مِنهُم مَغفِرَةً وَأَجرًا عَظيمًا

Muhammad is the Messenger of God. Those with him are stern with the unbelievers, compassionate among themselves. You see them bowing and prostrating, seeking grace and approval from God. Their marks are on their faces from the effects of prostration. This is their description in the Torah and the Gospel: like a seed that sprouts, grows, strengthens, thickens, and then stands firm on its stem, delighting the sowers. He enrages the unbelievers with them. God has promised those among them who believe and do righteous deeds, forgiveness and a great reward.
