What befell you on the day the two armies clashed was with God’s permission; that He may know the believers
Translation · Talal Itani (2012)CC BY-NC-ND 4.0
That which befell you, on the day when the two armies met, was by permission of Allah; that He might know the true believers
Translation · Marmaduke Pickthall (1930)Public Domain
And that which befel you on the day when the armies met, was certainly by the will of God, and that he might know the faithful, and that he might know the hypocrites! And when the word was "Advance, fight on the path of God, or drive back the foe," - they said, "Had we known how to fight, we would have followed you." Nearer were some of them on that day to unbelief, than to faith
