﴿ لَّقَد تَّابَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَى ٱلنَّبِىِّ وَٱلْمُهَٰجِرِينَ وَٱلْأَنصَارِ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّبَعُوهُ فِى سَاعَةِ ٱلْعُسْرَةِ مِنۢ بَعْدِ مَا كَادَ يَزِيغُ قُلُوبُ فَرِيقٍۢ مِّنْهُمْ ثُمَّ تَابَ عَلَيْهِمْ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ بِهِمْ رَءُوفٌۭ رَّحِيمٌۭ ﴾

“INDEED, God has turned in His mercy unto the Prophet, as well as unto those who have forsaken the domain of evil and those who have sheltered and succoured the Faiths - [all] those who followed him in the hour of distress, when the hearts of some of the other believers had well-nigh swerved from faith. And once again: He has turned unto them in His mercy - for, behold, He is compassionate towards them, a dispenser of grace.”

God has truly relented that is He has truly perpetuated His relenting to the Prophet and the Emigrants and the Helpers who followed him in the hour of hardship that is during the time of this hardship which was their predicament during the raid at Tabūk where two men would share a single date ten men would take turns on one camel and where the heat became so intense that they resorted to drinking filth; after the hearts of a party of them had almost deviated read either as tazīghu or yazīghu had almost inclined away from following him in favour of staying behind due to the hardship that afflicted them then He relented to them by making them steadfast. Truly He is Gentle Merciful to them.
