Surah Al-Anbiya' Ayat 112

Karena orang musyrik Mekah semakin hari bertambah-tambah kezaliman mereka, maka Muhammad berdoa kepada Tuhan agar Dia segera menimpakan azab kepada mereka. Permohonan Muhammad ini dikabulkan Allah dengan kekalahan orang musyrik pada beberapa peperangan yang terjadi antara kaum Muslimin dengan kaum musyrik. Qatadah berkata, "Para nabi dahulu berdoa": Ya Tuhan kami, berilah keputusan antara kami dan kaum kami dengan hak (adil). Engkaulah pemberi keputusan terbaik." (al-A'raf/7: 89) Maka Rasulullah saw diperintahkan Allah untuk mengucapkan doa yang demikian itu.

Say qul a variant reading has qāla ‘He said’ ‘My Lord! Judge between me and my deniers with truth by assigning chastisement for them or victory for me over them. And so they were chastised at the battles of Badr Uhud Hunayn al-Ahzāb and al-Khandaq and he the Prophet was given victory over them. And our Lord is the Compassionate One Whose help is to be sought against what you allege’ when you invent lies against God saying that ‘God has taken a son’ cf. Q. 2116; and against me when you say ‘he is a sorcerer’ cf. Q. 384 or against the Qur’ān when you say ‘it is poetry’ cf. Q. 5230.
