6 Preface وَعدَ اللَّهِ ۖ لا يُخلِفُ اللَّهُ وَعدَهُ وَلٰكِنَّ أَكثَرَ النّاسِ لا يَعلَمونَYusuf Ali(It is) the promise of God.1 Never does God depart from His promise: but most men understand not.The promise refers to the Decision of all things by the Command of God, Who will remove all troubles and difficulties from the path of His righteous Believers, and help them to rejoice over the success of their righteous Cause. This refers to all times and all situations. The righteous should not despair in their darkest moments, for God’s help will come. Ordinarily men are puffed up if they score a seeming temporary success against the righteous, and do not realise that God’s Will can never be thwarted.
