﴿ فَوَسَطْنَ بِهِۦ جَمْعًا ﴾

“thereby storming [blindly] into any host!”

Cleaving, as one, the centre (of the foe)) the above can also be understood as follow: Allah swears by the pilgrims' horses and camels when they return from 'Arafah to Muzdalifah snorting and striking sparks of fire; it is also said the latter means: performing acts which leads them to safety, i.e. the pilgrimage. And He swears by these when they go at dawn from Muzdalifah to Mina in the evening, leaving trails of dust and surrounding their enemies. Allah swore by all these.
