Verse (29:10)

The analysis above refers to the tenth verse of chapter 29 (sūrat l-ʿankabūt):

Sahih International: And of the people are some who say, "We believe in Allah ," but when one [of them] is harmed for [the cause of] Allah , they consider the trial of the people as [if it were] the punishment of Allah. But if victory comes from your Lord, they say, "Indeed, We were with you." Is not Allah most knowing of what is within the breasts of all creatures?
