English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

Remember, ˹Dear Beloved Prophet,˺when you were saying to the Muslims “Are you not content that your Lord will help you by sending down three thousand angels?”[1] Of course, if you are patient and adopt piety,[1] and the disbelievers launch a sudden attack, then your Lord will help you with five thousand distinctly marked angels.

Commentary

Prophets, Saints, and angels helping others is in fact the help of Allah Almighty as angels descended to aid the Muslims at Badr, they fought in the battle, and helped the Muslims, but their help is declared as the help of Allah Almighty in the verse. It is clear that when the beloved creation of Allah Almighty help others, with His permission, then this is also the help of Allah Almighty.

All the Muhājirūn (Emigrants) and Anṣār (Helpers) who participated in the Expedition of Badr are pious, as Allah Almighty had made patience and piety conditions for Divine aid and with descent of the angels, it was confirmed that the conditions were fulfilled. The Companions displayed patience and piety and hence the Quran endorsed this.
