غُلِبَتِ الرُّومُ ٢
The Roman Empire has been defeated-
فِي أَدْنَى الْأَرْضِ وَهُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِ غَلَبِهِمْ سَيَغْلِبُونَ ٣
In a land close by; but they, (even) after (this) defeat of theirs, will soon be victorious-
فِي بِضْعِ سِنِينَ ۗ لِلَّهِ الْأَمْرُ مِنْ قَبْلُ وَمِنْ بَعْدُ ۚ وَيَوْمَئِذٍ يَفْرَحُ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ ٤
Within a few years. With Allah is the Decision, in the past and in the Future: on that Day shall the Believers rejoice-
بِنَصْرِ اللَّهِ ۚ يَنْصُرُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ ۖ وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ ٥
With the help of Allah. He helps whom He will, and He is exalted in might, most merciful.
وَعْدَ اللَّهِ ۖ لَا يُخْلِفُ اللَّهُ وَعْدَهُ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ ٦
(It is) the promise of Allah. Never does Allah depart from His promise: but most men understand not.
