بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

8.17-18

فَلَمْ تَقْتُلُوْهُمْ وَ لٰـكِنَّ اللّٰهَ قَتَلَهُمْ۪-وَ مَا رَمَیْتَ اِذْ رَمَیْتَ وَ لٰـكِنَّ اللّٰهَ رَمٰىۚ-وَ لِیُبْلِیَ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ مِنْهُ بَلَآءً حَسَنًاؕ-اِنَّ اللّٰهَ سَمِیْعٌ عَلِیْمٌ(17) ذٰلِكُمْ وَ اَنَّ اللّٰهَ مُوْهِنُ كَیْدِ الْكٰفِرِیْنَ(18)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

English translation of Kanz-ul-Imaan

So, you did not kill them, but Allah killed them. And O Beloved, that sand which you threw, you did not throw; rather, it was Allah Who threw, in order that He may grant the believers a better reward from Himself; indeed, Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing. Take this for now (i.e. victory and spoils of war), and alongside this is that Allah is going to weaken the plot of the disbelievers.

Commentary

This verse expresses that good actions should be attributed to Allah Almighty, and one should not boast about them as these good deeds are done by the individual with the ability granted by Allah Almighty.
