FS 30th May, 2010 The Laa here, I think is Jawaab shart (the result of a condition). The prayer they made was ' IF you save us THEN we will surely be...' the Laa here corresponds to the Arabic THEN making it the answer/ jawaab to the conditional IF. The EMPH is in the energetic voice (heavy noon of tawkeed [emphasis]). Wallahu a'alam
