Surah Al-Ahzab

وَأَنزَلَ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَـٰهَرُوهُم مِّنْ أَهْلِ ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ مِن صَيَاصِيهِمْ وَقَذَفَ فِى قُلُوبِهِمُ ٱلرُّعْبَ فَرِيقًا تَقْتُلُونَ وَتَأْسِرُونَ فَرِيقًا

Wa anzalal-lażīna ẓāharūhum min ahlil-kitābi min ṣayāṣīhim wa qażafa fī qulūbihimur-ru‘ba farīqan taqtulūna wa ta'sirūna farīqā(n).

And He brought down those who supported them among the People of the Scripture from their fortresses and cast terror into their hearts [so that] a party you killed, and you took captive a party.
