you were seeking rescue with your Lord -azwj on the day (battle of) Badar from your enemies, and you asked Him \u2011azwj for the Help against them due to your fewer number and their large numbers, so there did not happen to be any refuge for you except the beseeching to Him -azwj and the supplicating to Him -azwj in removing the harm from you, so He Answered you: \u201cI will Assist you \u00a0 – i.e.

Send to you as help for you, with a thousand of the Angels, following one (after) another [8:9] , i.e., a thousand following another from the Angels, because with each one of them would be one behind him.
