## Verse 85

فَلَمْ يَكُ يَنْفَعُهُمْ ا۪يمَانُهُمْ لَمَّا رَاَوْا بَأْسَنَاۜ سُنَّتَ اللّٰهِ الَّت۪ي قَدْ خَلَتْ ف۪ي عِبَادِه۪ۚ وَخَسِرَ هُنَالِكَ الْكَافِرُونَ

Falam yaku yanfaAAuhum eemanuhum lammaraaw ba/sana sunnata Allahi allatee qad khalat feeAAibadihi wakhasira hunalika alkafiroon

But their faith did not benefit them when they saw Our might — the practice of God which has passed among His servants[...] — and thereupon the false claimers of guidance were lost.
