Caution: Translations of Quran and Ḥadīth may lead to possible misapplications and misinterpretations. This site is intended for students of sacred knowledge that are proficient in comprehending classical Arabic and have a strong foundation in Islamic sciences.

quran:27:50

And they planned a plan, and We planned a plan, while they perceived not.  

So they plotted, thereby, a plot, but We ˹also˺ plotted a plot, in other words, We requited them by hastening on their punishment, while they were not aware.
القرآن:٢٧:٥٠

وَمَكَرُوا مَكْرًا وَمَكَرْنَا مَكْرًا وَهُمْ لَا يَشْعُرُونَ  

{ومكروا} في ذلك {مكراً ومكرنا مكراً} أي جازيناهم بتعجيل عقوبتهم {وهم لا يشعرون}.
