41. And know that whatever spoils of war you take [82], then surely one-fifth of it is for Allah [83] and for the Messenger, and for his close relatives [84], and the orphans, and the needy [85], and the traveler [86], if you believe in Allah [87] and what We sent down upon Our servant on the Day of Decision [88], the day when the two groups met. And Allah has power over all things [89].

إِذۡ أَنتُم بِٱلۡعُدۡوَةِ ٱلدُّنۡيَا وَهُم بِٱلۡعُدۡوَةِ ٱلۡقُصۡوَىٰ وَٱلرَّكۡبُ أَسۡفَلَ مِنكُمۡۚ وَلَوۡ تَوَاعَدتُّمۡ لَٱخۡتَلَفۡتُمۡ فِي ٱلۡمِيعَٰدِ وَلَٰكِن لِّيَقۡضِيَ ٱللَّهُ أَمۡرٗا كَانَ مَفۡعُولٗا لِّيَهۡلِكَ مَنۡ هَلَكَ عَنۢ بَيِّنَةٖ وَيَحۡيَىٰ مَنۡ حَيَّ عَنۢ بَيِّنَةٖۗ وَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَسَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ

42. And remember when you were on the near side of the valley, and they were on the farther side, and the caravan was below [90] you on the plain.

And indeed, Allah is Hearing and Knowing [94].

43. O Beloved Prophet, remember when Allah made the disbelievers appear few to you in your dream [95].

وَإِذۡ زَيَّنَ لَهُمُ ٱلشَّيۡطَٰنُ أَعۡمَٰلَهُمۡ وَقَالَ لَا غَالِبَ لَكُمُ ٱلۡيَوۡمَ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ وَإِنِّي جَارٞ لَّكُمۡۖ فَلَمَّا تَرَآءَتِ ٱلۡفِئَتَانِ نَكَصَ عَلَىٰ عَقِبَيۡهِ وَقَالَ إِنِّي بَرِيٓءٞ مِّنكُمۡ إِنِّيٓ أَرَىٰ مَا لَا تَرَوۡنَ إِنِّيٓ أَخَافُ ٱللَّهَۚ وَٱللَّهُ شَدِيدُ ٱلۡعِقَابِ

Wa iz zaiyana lahumush shaitaanu a'maalahum wa qaala laa ghaaliba lakumul yawma minan naasi wa innee jaarul lakum falammaa taraaa'atil fi'ataani nakasa 'alaa aqibaihi wa qaala innee bareee'um minkum innee araa maa laa tarawna inneee akhaaful laah; wallaahu shadeedul 'iqaab
48. And when the devil adorned their deeds in their eyes [111] and said, "No one will overcome you today [112], and I am your protector," then when the two armies confronted each other, he turned on his heels and said, "I am free of you [113]. Indeed, I see what you do not see. I fear Allah [114]." And Allah's punishment is severe.
