Helping Allah
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓاْ إِن تَنصُرُواْ ٱللَّهَ يَنصُرۡكُمۡ وَيُثَبِّتۡ أَقۡدَامَكُمۡ ٧
O ye who believe! If ye help Allah, He will help you and will make your foothold firm.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
If you support Allah, He will support you and plant firmly your feet.
