Transliteration:( Wa Huwal lazee kaffa aydiyahum 'ankum wa aydiyakum 'anhum bibatni Makkata mim ba'di an azfarakum 'alaihim; wa kaanal laahu bimaa ta'maloona Baseera )
67. This means Oh My Beloved Prophet on the day of the Conquest of Makkah Allah had placed in the hearts of the Makkans such awe and fear that they did not have any courage to oppose you and the holy city of Makkah was easily conquered by you. You, too, were not required to shed any Blood.
From this, we understand that Makkah was not conquered by force nor through mere careful negotiations. Or, it means that at Hudaibiyya Allah Almighty prevented you om confrontation with the infidels and the infidels from you. Hazrat Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) says that on the day of Hudaibiyya, eighty infidels from Makkah landed from Mt. Taneem fully armed in order to attack the Muslims. The believers captured them and presented them in front of the Holy Prophet The Messenger of Allah ? released them after their repentance. Mention here is made of this incident.
68. This means that we are pleased with your Treaty of Hudaibiyya and Conquest of Makkah. What you did was worthy of praise.
