Wa Huwal lazee kaffa aydiyahum 'ankum wa aydiyakum 'anhum bibatni Makkata mim ba'di an azfarakum 'alaihim; wa kaanal laahu bimaa ta'maloona Baseera
Translation
And it is He who withheld their hands from you and your hands from them within [the area of] Makkah after He caused you to overcome them. And ever is Allah of what you do, Seeing.
Verse interpretation (Tafsir)
He is the one who prevented the hands of the idolaters from getting to you when approximately seventy men came at Ḥudaybīyyah, intending to cause you harm. He stopped you from them; you did not kill them or cause them any harm. Rather, you freed them after Allah made it possible for you to capture them. And Allah is watchful over your actions; none of your actions are hidden from Him.
