وَلاَ يَحْسَبَنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ سَبَقُواْ إِنَّهُمْ لاَ يُعْجِزُونَ
[8:59]
And let not those who disbelieve think that they shall come in first; surely they will not escape.
Let not the unbelievers think that they can get the better (of the godly): they will never frustrate (them).
And let not those who disbelieve suppose that they can outstrip (Allah's Purpose). Lo! they cannot escape.
