ان يمسسكم قرح فقد مس القوم قرح مثله وتلك الايام نداولها بين الناس وليعلم الله الذين امنوا ويتخذ منكم شهداء والله لا يحب الظالمين

If a wound hath touched you, Be sure a similar wound Hath touched the others. Such days (of varying fortunes) We give to men and men By turns: that God may know Those that believe, And that He may take To Himself from your ranks Martyr-witnesses (to Truth). And God loveth not Those that do wrong.
