“O, Moses! Lo! a giant people (dwell) therein, and lo! we go not in ‘till they go forth from thence. When they go forth from thence, then we will enter (not ‘till then). Then out spake two of those who feared (their Lord, men) unto whom Allah had been gracious: Enter in upon them by the gate, for if ye enter by it, lo! ye will be victorious. So put your trust (in Allah) if ye are indeed believers. They said: O, Moses! We will never enter (the land) while they are in it. So go thou and thy Lord and fight! We will sit here.” (5: 22-24) | “O, Moses! Lo! a giant people (dwell) therein, and lo! we go not in ‘till they go forth from thence.
