ٱلْأَنْفَال : ١٩

  • إِن If
  • تَسۡتَفۡتِحُواْ you ask for victory
  • فَقَدۡ then certainly
  • جَآءَكُمُ has come to you
  • ٱلۡفَتۡحُۖ the victory
  • وَإِن And if
  • تَنتَهُواْ you desist
  • فَهُوَ then it (is)
  • خَيۡرٞ good
  • لَّكُمۡۖ for you
  • وَإِن but if
  • تَعُودُواْ you return
  • نَعُدۡ We will return (too)
  • وَلَن And never
  • تُغۡنِيَ will avail
  • عَنكُمۡ you
  • فِئَتُكُمۡ your forces
  • شَيۡـٔٗا anything
  • وَلَوۡ even if
  • كَثُرَتۡ (they are) numerous
  • وَأَنَّ And that
  • ٱللَّهَ Allah
  • مَعَ (is) with
  • ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ the believers
If you [disbelievers] seek the decision [i.e., victory] - the decision [i.e., defeat] has come to you. And if you desist [from hostilities], it is best for you; but if you return [to war], We will return, and never will you be availed by your [large] company at all, even if it should increase; and [that is] because Allāh is with the believers.
If you have sought a judgement, O disbelievers, if you have sought a decisive conclusion [of this battle] - Aboo Jahl had said, 'O God! Whoever among [the two of] us is the one who has severed the ties of kinship and brought us what we had never known, destroy them today!' - the judgement, the decisive conclusion, has now come to you, by the fact that the one so described has [already] perished: this was Aboo Jahl and those killed with him, and not the Prophet may peace and salutation be upon him and the believers; and if you desist, from unbelief and waging war, it will better for you. But if you return, to fight against the Prophet may peace and salutation be upon him, We shall return, to assist him against you, and your host, your troops, will not avail, will not protect, you in any way, however numerous it be; and verily God is with the believers (read thus inna, indicating a new sentence; or read anna, with an implicit laam [li-anna'Llaaha ma'a'l-mu'mineen, 'because God is with the believers']).
