So, when Talut set out along with the troops, he said: .Allah is going to test you by a river, so, whoever drinks from it is not my man, and whoever does not taste it is surely a man of mine, except the one who scoops a little with his hand. Then they drank from it, except a few of them. So, when it (the river) was crossed by him and by those who believed with him, they said: .There is no strength with us today against Jalut and his troops. Said those who believed in their having to meet Allah: .How many small groups have overcome large groups by the will of Allah. Allah is with those who remain patient.
