In the Quran
وَهُوَ ٱلَّذِى كَفَّ أَيْدِيَهُمْ عَنكُمْ وَأَيْدِيَكُمْ عَنْهُم بِبَطْنِ مَكَّةَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ أَنْ أَظْفَرَكُمْ عَلَيْهِمْ ۚ وَكَانَ ٱللَّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرًا
اور وہی تو ہے جس نے تم کو ان (کافروں) پر فتحیاب کرنے کے بعد سرحد مکہ میں ان کے ہاتھ تم سے اور تمہارے ہاتھ ان سے روک دیئے۔ اور جو کچھ تم کرتے ہو خدا اس کو دیکھ رہا ہے
And He it is Who hath withheld men's hands from you, and hath withheld your hands from them, in the valley of Mecca, after He had made you victors over them. Allah is Seer of what ye do.
