The Holy Quran 33:26 — Surah Al-Ahzab

Arabic text

وَأَنزَلَ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَـٰهَرُوهُم مِّنْ أَهْلِ ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ مِن صَيَاصِيهِمْ وَقَذَفَ فِى قُلُوبِهِمُ ٱلرُّعْبَ فَرِيقًا تَقْتُلُونَ وَتَأْسِرُونَ فَرِيقًا

Translation

He (Allaah) made those people of the Book (the Jewish Banu Qurayzah tribe) who assisted them (the combined armies) descend from their fortresses (when the Muslims laid siege to them after the battle) and He cast fear into their hearts (causing them to surrender without a fight). (When the fate of the Banu Qurayzah was decided according to the teachings of their scriptures, the Sahabah رضي الله تعالى عنهم executed all their able- bodied soldiers and took the rest as prisoners. Referring to this, Allaah says), You execute a party of them and take another party as prisoners.

Tafsir (excerpt) — التفسير الميسر

وأنزل الله يهود بني قريظة من حصونهم; لإعانتهم الأحزاب في قتال المسلمين، وألقى في قلوبهم الخوف فهُزموا، تقتلون منهم فريقًا، وتأسرون فريقًا آخر.
