Al-Hashr 59:2

Al-Hashr - The Exile

الحشر

هُوَ الَّذي أَخرَجَ الَّذينَ كَفَروا مِن أَهلِ الكِتابِ مِن دِيارِهِم لِأَوَّلِ الحَشرِ ۚ ما ظَنَنتُم أَن يَخرُجوا ۖ وَظَنّوا أَنَّهُم مانِعَتُهُم حُصونُهُم مِنَ اللَّهِ فَأَتاهُمُ اللَّهُ مِن حَيثُ لَم يَحتَسِبوا ۖ وَقَذَفَ في قُلوبِهِمُ الرُّعبَ ۚ يُخرِبونَ بُيوتَهُم بِأَيديهِم وَأَيدِي المُؤمِنينَ فَاعتَبِروا يا أُولِي الأَبصارِ

It is He who expelled the disbelieving People of the Scripture from their homes during the first gathering. You didn’t anticipate their departure, and they assumed their strongholds would protect them from God. However, God came upon them from where they didn’t expect, striking fear into their hearts. They demolished their homes with their own hands and the believer’s hands. Therefore, take a lesson, O people of understanding.
