The Holy Quran 8:36 — Surah Al-Anfal

Arabic text

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ يُنفِقُونَ أَمْوَٰلَهُمْ لِيَصُدُّوا۟ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ ۚ فَسَيُنفِقُونَهَا ثُمَّ تَكُونُ عَلَيْهِمْ حَسْرَةً ثُمَّ يُغْلَبُونَ ۗ وَٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوٓا۟ إِلَىٰ جَهَنَّمَ يُحْشَرُونَ

Translation

Verily the Kuffaar spend their wealth to prevent (others) from Allaah's path (Islaam). They will soon spend their wealth (to fight the Muslims, as the Mushrikeen did for the Battle of Badr), then this wealth shall be a source of regret for them (because they will not achieve what they intend to) after which they will be defeated (as a punishment in this world, while Islaam will continue to spread). (In addition to this worldly punishment,) The Kuffaar shall be gathered towards Jahannam (in the Aakhirah)...

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

at Badr twelve chiefs had each taken one day upon himself, on the understanding that each day one man would feed the army. Accordingly, ten camels were slaughtered daily at the expense of one of them.
