The Quran mentions in several places that Allah has the power to bring the schemes and plans of disbelievers to nothing. For example, in verse 8:18, it is mentioned that "If you sought a decision, the decision has indeed come to you; and if you desist, it will be better for you; but if you return [to war], We will return, and never will you avail yourselves of your [large] company at all, even if it should increase; and [that is] because Allah is with the believers."
This verse refers to a battle between the Muslims and the disbelievers, and it emphasizes that the outcome of the battle is ultimately in the hands of Allah. It underscores the belief that Allah is all-powerful and can bring the schemes and plans of disbelievers to nothing, even if they seem to have a large army and many resources at their disposal.
Similarly, in verse 14:46, it is mentioned that "And never will Allah grant to the unbelievers a way (to triumphs) over the believers." This verse emphasizes the belief that Allah is on the side of the believers, and that He will not allow the plans and schemes of disbelievers to triumph over the righteous.
Overall, the Quran emphasizes the belief in Allah's power and authority, and the fact that He has the power to bring the schemes and plans of disbelievers to nothing. This belief underscores the importance of seeking guidance and support from Allah, and of striving to live one's life in accordance with His teachings.
Here are the translations and explanations of verses 8:30 and 8:36 from the Quran:
Verse 8:30:
وَإِذْ يَمْكُرُ بِكَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لِيُثْبِتُوكَ أَوْ يَقْتُلُوكَ أَوْ يُخْرِجُوكَ ۚ وَيَمْكُرُونَ وَيَمْكُرُ اللَّهُ ۖ وَاللَّهُ خَيْرُ الْمَاكِرِينَ
Translation: "And [remember, O Muhammad], when those who disbelieved plotted against you to restrain you or kill you or evict you [from Makkah]. But they plan, and Allah plans. And Allah is the best of planners."
Explanation: This verse describes the plot of the disbelievers to harm the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) when he was living in Makkah. The disbelievers were plotting to either restrain, kill, or evict him from Makkah. However, Allah also planned and He is the best of planners. In the end, the plot of the disbelievers failed and the Prophet was able to migrate to Madinah, where he established the first Islamic state.
Verse 8:36:
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا يُنْفِقُونَ أَمْوَالَهُمْ لِيَصُدُّوا عَنْ سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ۚ فَسَيُنْفِقُونَهَا ثُمَّ تَكُونُ عَلَيْهِمْ حَسْرَةً ثُمَّ يُغْلَبُونَ ۗ وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا إِلَىٰ جَهَنَّمَ يُحْشَرُونَ
Translation: "Indeed, those who disbelieve spend their wealth to avert [people] from the way of Allah. So they will spend it; then it will be for them a [source of] regret; then they will be overcome. And those who have disbelieved - unto Hell they will be gathered."
Explanation: This verse speaks about the behavior of disbelievers who spend their wealth to prevent people from following the path of Allah. However, in the end, their wealth will be a source of regret for them as their efforts will be in vain. In addition, they will be overcome and defeated in the end.
