Salaam all,

8:48
وَإِذْ زَيَّنَ لَهُمُ الشَّيْطَانُ أَعْمَالَهُمْ وَقَالَ لاَ غَالِبَ لَكُمُ الْيَوْمَ مِنَ النَّاسِ وَإِنِّي جَارٌ لَّكُمْ فَلَمَّا تَرَاءتِ الْفِئَتَانِ نَكَصَ عَلَى عَقِبَيْهِ وَقَالَ إِنِّي بَرِيءٌ مِّنكُمْ إِنِّي أَرَى مَا لاَ تَرَوْنَ إِنِّيَ أَخَافُ اللّهَ وَاللّهُ شَدِيدُ الْعِقَابِ

Waith zayyana lahumu alshshaytanu aAAmalahum waqala la ghaliba lakumu alyawma mina alnnasi wainnee jarun lakum falamma taraati alfiatani nakasa AAala AAaqibayhi waqala innee bareeon minkum innee ara ma la tarawna innee akhafu Allaha waAllahu shadeedu alAAiqabi
The Aya says:
And as Satan adorned for them their actions and he said no one of the people will defeat you today and I am your protector. So, when the two groups saw each other he reneged stumbling backwards. He said “I dissociate from you. I see what you do not see. I fear Allah and Allah is severe in the consequence”.
My personal note:
This is a lesson to anyone that follows the direction of Satan in that he gives false promises then he leaves the human to fend for himself/ herself in a losing situation. So better for the human to be at peace with Allah and to return to Allah for the door towards coming back to Allah is always open.
Translation of the transliterated words:

Waith: and as

Note: the root is Z-Y-N and it means what one puts on to add beauty to the look. It is used to cover clothes, jewelry and make up. For the land, it is the grass and the flowers.
