Victory comes only from God, the Almighty, the Most Wise
I write this to explain this point which confuses many people.
I say this because I heard a Jewish woman say on the TV "God is with us!" It implies she thinks that her religion is true and other religions including Islam is false, and that for this reason, she sees now that the Israelites have impacted Muslims.
Truly, the matter of victory and defeat is by God's hand, as in the Quran 3: 126, which means: (
Surely, victory comes only from God, the Almighty, the Most Wise) which is also mentioned in many other ayat of the Quran.
God grants victory to His messengers: this is obvious and unquestionable: He helps His messengers against their enemies the idolaters and disbelievers. So God helps with victory His messengers and their followers who devote themselves to God alone.
This victory comes in two ways: either people believe their prophet or messenger and will be saved... or people reject the messenger and here they will be destroyed, while the messenger together with the believers will be saved.
However, most peoples denied their messengers and were destroyed, like Noah's people who were drowned, Lot's people who were destroyed by the earthquake, etc.
And like the Israelites who opposed the apostles of Christ and were severely destroyed and went into the Diaspora.
And like the Israelites who opposed Prophet Mohammed, and were thus destroyed and banished.
And like Pharaoh and his troops who were drowned after their opposing Moses.
That is because opposing the messenger indicated the opposing of God Who sent him.
