الَّذِيۡنَ يَتَرَ بَّصُوۡنَ بِكُمۡ‌ ۚ   فَاِنۡ كَانَ لَـكُمۡ فَتۡحٌ مِّنَ اللّٰهِ قَالُـوۡۤا اَلَمۡ نَـكُنۡ مَّعَكُمۡ ‌ ۖ   وَاِنۡ كَانَ لِلۡكٰفِرِيۡنَ نَصِيۡبٌۙ قَالُـوۡۤا اَلَمۡ نَسۡتَحۡوِذۡ عَلَيۡكُمۡ وَنَمۡنَعۡكُمۡ مِّنَ الۡمُؤۡمِنِيۡنَ‌  ؕ  فَاللّٰهُ يَحۡكُمُ بَيۡنَكُمۡ يَوۡمَ الۡقِيٰمَةِ  ؕ وَلَنۡ يَّجۡعَلَ اللّٰهُ لِلۡكٰفِرِيۡنَ عَلَى الۡمُؤۡمِنِيۡنَ سَبِيۡلًا

 

Ul-la-ze-na-ya-ta-rub-ba-soo-na-bay-koom                                                                                  Fa-in-kaa-na-la-koom-fut-hoom-may-nul-laa-hay                                                                  Qaa-loo-aa-lum-na-koom-ma-aa-koom

Those who stay behind to wait with you                                                                            So if there had been a win for you from Allah                                                                They said, “Have we not been with you?”

And if here had been some part of a win for the disbelievers                                  They said, “Don’t we warn you                                                                                                And forbid you from the Believers”

So Allah will decide among you on the Judgment Day                                              And Allah never makes for the disbelievers                                                                    A way of success over the Believers.
