Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)

Allah said "Allah made it not but as a message of good news for you and as an assurance to your hearts". This Ayah means, "Allah sent down angels and told you about their descent to encourage you and to comfort and reassure your hearts. You should know that victory only comes from Allah and that if He willed, He would have defeated your enemy without you having to fight them.
