8:18-24
8:18
That, and also because Allah is He Who makes feeble the plans
and stratagem of the Unbelievers.
8:19
(O Unbelievers!) if ye prayed for victory and judgment, now hath
the judgment come to you: if ye desist (from wrong), it will be best for you: if ye return (to the attack), so shall We. Not the least good will your forces be to you even if they were multiplied: for verily Allah is with those who believe!
8:20
O ye who believe! Obey Allah and His Messenger, and turn not
away from him when ye hear (him speak).
8:21
Nor be like those who say, “We hear,” but listen not:
8:22
For the worst of beasts in the sight of Allah are the deaf and the
dumb,- those who understand not.
8:23
If Allah had found in them any good. He would indeed have made
them listen: (As it is), if He had made them listen, they would but have turned back and declined (Faith).
8:24
O ye who believe! give your response to Allah and His Messenger,
when He calleth you to that which will give you life; and know that Allah cometh in between a man and his heart, and that it is He to Whom ye shall (all) be gathered.
