Surah As-Saff · Ayah 14·Madanī

14

ٱلَّذِينَ كَمَا عِيسَى مَرْيَمَ مَنْ إِلَى نَحْنُ مِّنۢ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ ٱلَّذِينَ عَلَىٰ ﴿١٤﴾

Translation

Saheeh International

O you who have believed, be supporters of Allah, as when Jesus, the son of Mary, said to the disciples, "Who are my supporters for Allah?" The disciples said, "We are supporters of Allah." And a faction of the Children of Israel believed and a faction disbelieved. So We supported those who believed against their enemy, and they became dominant.
