And indeed, they [i.e., the disbelievers] used to say,1

      

Saheeh International

"If we had a message from [those of] the former peoples,

    

Saheeh International

We would have been the chosen servants of Allāh."

    

Saheeh International

But they disbelieved in it,1 so they are going to know.

     

Saheeh International

And Our word [i.e., decree] has already preceded for Our servants, the messengers,

   

Saheeh International

[That] indeed, they would be those given victory

    

Saheeh International

And [that] indeed, Our soldiers [i.e., the believers] will be those who overcome.1

    

Saheeh International

So, [O Muḥammad], leave them for a time.

   

Saheeh International

And see [what will befall] them, for they are going to see.

  

Saheeh International

Then for Our punishment are they impatient?
