Another Thing You Love
وَأُخۡرَىٰ تُحِبُّونَهَاۖ نَصۡرࣱ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ وَفَتۡحࣱ قَرِيبࣱۗ وَبَشِّرِ ٱلۡمُؤۡمِنِينَ ١٣
And (He will give you) another (blessing) which ye love: help from Allah and present victory. Give good tidings (O Muhammad) to believers.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
And another thing you love: victory from Allah and an imminent conquest.
Insight
According to Elmalılı, besides these blessings there is another that you love: victory in this world.
Reflect
Ask for good in both this world and the Hereafter.
