God is enough for us as An Excellent Protector (L-487)
|
ٱلَّذِينَ ٱسْتَجَابُوا۟ لِلَّهِ وَٱلرَّسُولِ مِنۢ بَعْدِ مَآ أَصَابَهُمُ ٱلْقَرْحُ لِلَّذِينَ أَحْسَنُوا۟ مِنْهُمْ وَٱتَّقَوْا۟ أَجْرٌ عَظِيمٌ. 172 ٱلَّذِينَ قَالَ لَهُمُ ٱلنَّاسُ إِنَّ ٱلنَّاسَ قَدْ جَمَعُوا۟ لَكُمْ فَٱخْشَوْهُمْ فَزَادَهُمْ إِيمَٰنًا وَقَالُوا۟ حَسْبُنَا ٱللَّهُ وَنِعْمَ ٱلْوَكِيلُ. 173 |

172. ‘Allaziinas-tajaabuu Lillaahi war-Rasuuli mim- ba’-di maaa ‘asaaba-humul-qarhu lil-laziina ‘ah-sanuu minhum watta-qaw ‘ajrun ‘aziim. 173. ‘Allaziina qaala lahumun-naasu
‘innan-naasa qad ja-ma-‘uu lakum fakh-shawhum

172. Those who responded to God and the Messenger, despite the persecution they had suffered. For the virtuous and the pious among them is a great reward. 173. Those to whom the people have said, “The people have
mobilized against you, so fear them.” But this only increased them in faith,
and they said, “God is enough for us; He is the Excellent Protector.” |
An incident has been described as the aim of sending these verses:
During the Battle of ‘Uhud, the Muslims slumbered and then they stopped before the enemy being refreshed. A very furious fight took place in the battlefield. After suffering a defeat, the Idolaters of Makkah ran away. Abu Sufiyan was chieftain of that Army. He stopped in the way while they were returning to Makkah and thought in his heart, “We have made a big mistake that we have left the Muslims who were defeated and injured. It was better that they would have been finished today”. They began to consult one another and finalized, “Let’s go back to Madinah and finish the Muslims”.
When the Messenger of God (ﷺ) heard this news that Abu Sufiyan was thinking to attack the Muslims again, he (ﷺ) publicized in Madinah, “Get those people ready to follow the enemy today, who were our colleagues yesterday in the battlefield of ‘Uhud”.
The Muslim crusaders had been injured severely in the battlefield. They had been wounded deadly. Apparently, they did not have strength to fight then. But listening to the call of God’s Apostle (ﷺ), they got ready immediately. God has mentioned about those good servants in this verse.
Having so many wounds on their
bodies, the Crusaders of Islam were not confused in their minds, prepared
themselves without any delay upon one call of the Messenger of God (ﷺ). For such good-natured and
abstinent of them, there is great reward.
