Standard فصحى Damaged Qur'an page from Gaza

I found this image on twitter, whilst looking at Qur'an verses to study. So, I wanted to see if I understood the context here:

This part نعم نعرف means "yes, we know"?

Per the following:

na3rifu نَعرِفُ we - present tense (of the verb لتعرف)

I then googled سَبَقَتْ كَلِمَتُنَا and جُندَنَا لَهُمُ الْغَالِبُو and got the Qur'an, Surah As-Saffat (37:171–173):

وَلَقَدْ سَبَقَتْ كَلِمَتُنَا لِعِبَادِنَا ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ إِنَّهُمْ لَهُمُ ٱلْمَنصُورُونَ وَإِنَّ جُندَنَا لَهُمُ ٱلْغَـٰلِبُونَ

Our Word has already gone forth to Our servants, the messengers, that they would surely be helped, and that Our forces will certainly prevail.

Therefore, "yes, we know" per the remaining words in the destroyed Surah is a confirmation of optimism and courage in time of war, and Allah's will?

Thank you in advance? ❤️

I'm a native English speaker who learned Egyptian Arabic (and French) to around a conversational level. I also speak some Fus7a but it's quite bad.

This is just for fun. Curious to hear your experiences/thoughts?

Part 1

  1. ح-ص-ن (Horse, Fortress, Immunity)

A fortress (حِصْن) protects, immunity (حَصَانَة) preserves from harm, and a horse (حِصَان) is traditionally linked through ideas of strength and protection.

2. غ-ر-ب (Sunset, Stranger, Crow)

The sun goes away at sunset (غُرُوب), a stranger (غَرِيب) is distant from their home, and a crow (غُرَاب) is thought to be connected through the idea of darkness and the disappearance of light.

3. ن-ظ-ر (Sight, Waiting, Theory)

Sight is (نَظَر), (اِنْتِظار) is looking forward to something, and (نَظَرِيَّة) is a concept formed through reflection.

4. ه-و-ى (Fall, Love/Passion, Abyss)

The root carries the idea of falling or being drawn toward something: one can fall physically (هَوَى), fall emotionally in love (هَوًى), or fall into an abyss (هاوِيَة).

5. ش-ه-د (Witness, Certificate, Martyr)

A witness (شاهِد) sees and confirms something, شَهَادَة is testimony or certification, and شَهِيد literally means "one who witnesses," giving the meaning of martyr through bearing witness with one's sacrifice.

6. ط-ر-ق (Knock, Hammer, Road, Method)

The root relates to striking and making a path: طَرَقَ means to strike, مِطْرَقَة is a hammer, طَرِيق is a trodden path, and طَرِيقَة is a method or way.

7. ط-ف-ل (Child, Intrusive, Parasite)

The root relates to something dependent or attached: a طِفْل is a young child, مُتَطَفِّل is someone who attaches themselves where they are unwanted, and طُفَيْلِيّ is a parasite living off another organism.

8. ك-و-ن (Universe, Being, Ingredient)

All relate to existence and formation: كَوْن is cosmos/ universe, كائِن is a being, and مُكَوِّن is something that forms part of a whole.
