Quote:The thing is that the verses are not saying that the Muslims "can" or "will" defeat such-and-such number of enemies.No, it says "shall overtake.." You know what that means right? As far as I know "shall" is an old form of "will" and it states a certainity if its used as "will" correct me if I'm wrong..
Anyway I have the turkish translation of the verse and it clearly states that Muslims will/can defeat infidels in such numbers if they are patient and whatever...
Quote:As you already know, the ratio in verse 65 is much lower than the ratio in verse 66. Why? Because Allah said that he lowered their burden:And you bought it? lol.. Obviously, Muhammad realized that they were never going to win that war with such numbers, or maybe some of his supporters objected to him..(its more likely actually coz old muho is stubborn like a goat..) Anyway, my points stand. Didn't god knew that that kind of ratio would be heavy for them? As for your analogy, teacher doesnt have the power to make its children smarter. And can't see their potential before semester.. So he/she can change his/her mind according to their performance. But it's Allah we are talking about, not some fifth grade teacher.. He suppose to be all knowing right?
