وَلَقَدْ كُنتُمْ تَمَنَّوْنَ ٱلْمَوْتَ مِن قَبْلِ أَن تَلْقَوْهُ فَقَدْ رَأَيْتُمُوهُ وَأَنتُمْ تَنظُرُونَ ١٤٣
And verily ye used to wish for death before ye met it (in the field). Now ye have seen it with your eyes!
And you had certainly wished for martyrdom before you encountered it, and you have [now] seen it [before you] while you were looking on.
You previously longed for death (in the way of Allah): now you have faced it, observing it with your own eyes.
