Quran 8:42

Recall when you were on the nearer bank, and they were on the further bank, and the caravan was below you. Had you planned for this meeting, you would have disagreed on the timing, but Allah was to carry out a predetermined matter, so that those who perish would perish by clear evidence, and those who survive would survive by clear evidence. Allah is Hearing and Knowing.

When ye were on the near bank (of the valley) and they were on the yonder bank, and the caravan was below you (on the coast plain). And had ye trysted to meet one another ye surely would have failed to keep the tryst, but (it happened, as it did, without the forethought of either of you) that Allah might conclude a thing that must be done; that he who perished (on that day) might perish by a clear proof (of His Sovereignty) and he who survived might survive by a clear proof (of His Sovereignty). Lo! Allah in truth is Hearer, Knower.

O vakıt ki siz vâdînin beri yamacında idiniz, onlarsa öte yamacında, süvarileri de tam sizden aşağıda idiniz, öyleki onlarla va'dleşmiş olsa idiniz mutlak mîâdda ıhtilâf ederdiniz ve lâkin Allah mukadder bir emri yerine getirmek için o yapılmış idi ki hem helâk olan beyyineden helâk olsun, hem de yaşıyan beyyineden yaşasın ve çünkü Allah her halde semî'dir alîmdir

Souvenez-vous de ce jour ou vous étiez campés sur le passage le plus rapproché, vos ennemis sur le passage le plus éloigné de la vallée, et que la caravane était plus bas. Si vous aviez pris des engagements mutuels, vous y auriez manqué, effrayés du nombre de l’ennemi ; mais vous vous y êtes trouvés réunis comme par hasard, afin que Dieu accomplît l’œuvre décrétée dans ses destins ; Afin que celui qui devait périr, périt par un signe évident du ciel, et que celui qui devait survivre, vécut par le même signe. Dieu sait et entend tout.

Toen gij gelegerd waart op de meest nabijgelegen zijde der vallei, en zij gelegerd waren op de verste zijde, en de karavaan zich lager bevond, en indien gij wederzijds bepaald hadt slag te leveren, zoudt gij zekerlijk die bepaling hebben geschonden; maar gij werdt, zonder eenige voorafgaande bepaling, tot den strijd gebracht, opdat God de zaak zou vervullen, welke hij besloten had te doen plaats hebben. Opdat degeen die omkwam, zou omkomen, na een blijkbare aanwijzing, en hij die het moest overleven, door hetzelfde teeken leven mocht. God hoort en weet alles.

Ricordatevi del giorno in cui eravate accampati sul passo più vicino, i vostri nemici sul passo più lontano della valle, e che la carovana era più in basso. Se aveste preso degl’impegni reciproci vi avreste mancato, spaventati dal numero del nemico; ma vi ci siete trovati riuniti, (come per caso) affinchè Dio compisse l’opera decretata nei suoi destini; Affinchè colui che doveva perire, perisse per un segno evidente del Cielo, e colui che doveva sopravvivere, vivesse per il medesimo segno. Dio sa, e comprende tutto.
