2. He is the One Who expelled the disbelievers of the People of the Book (i.e. the tribe of Banu al-Nadir) from their homes at the outset of the first banishment (because of their treason against the state). You never thought they would go; they thought their strongholds would defend them against Allah. But (the decree of) Allah came upon them from where they did not expect, and He cast terror into their hearts. They demolished their houses with their own hands and the hands of the believers. So take a lesson (from it)! O people of vision!

هو الذي أخرج الذين كفروا من أهل الكتاب من ديارهم لأول الحشر ما ظننتم أن يخرجوا وظنوا أنهم مانعتهم حصونهم من الله فأتاهم الله من حيث لم يحتسبوا وقذف في قلوبهم الرعب يخربون بيوتهم بأيديهم وأيدي المؤمنين فاعتبروا يا أولي الأبصار
