SURAH AL-E-IMRAN: 164-165


TRANSLATION:

[3:164]
Allah has surely conferred favor on the believers when He raised in their midst a messenger from among themselves who recites to them His verses and makes them pure and teaches them the Book and the Wisdom, while earlier, they were in open error.

[3:165]
How is it that, when you suffered a hardship the twice of which you had inflicted upon them, {56} you say, "Where did this come from?" Say, "This is from your own selves. Allah is surely Powerful over everything." 

INTERPRETATION:

{56} This is a reference to the battle of Badar in which seventy men of the non-believers of Quraysh had been killed and seventy had been captured, while in the battle of Uhud even though seventy Muslims had been martyred but no one had been captured. So, the non-believers’ loss in the battle of Badar had been double those of the Muslims in the battle of Uhud.
