In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Conclusion from Al-Tabari’s interpretation
It was summarized by Dr. Aqeel bin Salem Al-Shammari
Surat Al-Qasas
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
When Musa had completed his term and led his family, he saw a fire on the side of the mountain
He said to their family, “Stay still. I sensed a fire. Perhaps I will bring you news from it, or an ember from the fire. Perhaps you will calm down.”
When Musa fulfilled his ten proofs,
He walked with his family to his home from Egypt
I see and feel fire from the side of the stage
He told his family to be patient and wait, for I saw fire
Perhaps I will bring you news from the fire, or I will bring you a thick piece of firewood with fire in it, so that you may warm yourself with it from the cold. And it was winter.
When he reached it, a call was called from the right bank of the valley in the blessed spot of the tree: O Moses, indeed I am God, Lord of the worlds.
When Moses came to the fire that was near the mountain
God called Moses to the blessed spot by the tree
Indeed, O Moses, I am God, Lord of the worlds
And if he threw your stick, then when he saw it shaking as if it were a jinn or a deviant, he did not follow up
O Moses, come and do not be afraid, for you are safe
And if you throw your staff, Moses threw it and it became a running serpent
When Moses saw it moving and turbulent, it was as if it were a genie of snakes
Nor did Moses escape from it, nor did he turn around or wait
So call me, O Moses, come to me and do not be afraid of what you are running away from
You are safe, but it is your stick
Put your hand in your pocket and it will come out white without any harm
And embrace your wings of terror
These are two proofs from your Lord to Pharaoh and his entourage
They were immoral people
Put your hand in your shirt pocket and it will come out white and not stained
I hold your hand close to you from the fear and disunity that has befallen you
From your observation, I have not witnessed the horror of the snake
These two things I showed you, O Moses, are the ones who turned the stick into a snake
And your hand, which is brown and white, shines without leprosy
Two verses and two arguments to Pharaoh and the nobles of his people as an argument against them
And an indication of the truth of your prophecy, O Moses
Pharaoh and his people were unbelievers
He said, “My Lord, I have killed a soul among them, so I fear that they will be killed.”
Moses said, “My Lord, I have killed a soul from Pharaoh’s people.”
So I fear that if I go to them, I have not defended myself under the pretext that they will be killed
Because I have a knot on my tongue and I cannot explain what I want to say
My brother Haroun is more eloquent than me
So he sent him with me, wanting him to believe me
I am afraid they will lie
My brother Haroun is the best articulator of what he wants to explain
So he sent him with me as an assistant to explain to them what I was addressing them with
I am afraid that they will not believe me when I tell them
I sent to you
He said, “We will support you with your brother and give you authority.”
They will not reach you with Our signs
You and those who follow you will prevail
God said to Moses
We will strengthen you and help you with your brother
And we will make an argument for you
So let Pharaoh and his people not harm you
With our argument and authority that we give to you
You and those who follow you will be victorious, Pharaoh and his entourage
When Moses came to him with Our clear signs
They said, “This is nothing but fabricated magic.”
They said, “This is nothing but fabricated magic.”
We have not heard of this among our forefathers
When Moses came to Pharaoh and his chiefs
With our evidence and arguments
Evidence is evidence
With the truth of what Moses brought from his Lord
They said to Moses
This that you brought us is nothing but magic
He was slandered by you
And you silenced him as a lie and a falsehood
We have not heard of this that you are calling us to
Of worshiping Him whom you call us to worship
In our ancestors and parents who went before us
Moses said, “My Lord knows best who brought guidance from Him.”
And whoever will have the consequence of disgrace
The wrongdoers will not succeed
Moses said
My Lord knows best who brought guidance
For the sake of truth and clarity
From his clear argument
And who has the praiseworthy obstacle in the Hereafter?
It does not succeed and their seekers who disbelieve in God Almighty do not achieve it
And Pharaoh said, O chiefs!
I do not know that you have any god other than Me
So, Haman, light a fire for me on clay
So make me a edifice
Perhaps I may look to the God of Moses
And I think he is one of the liars
Pharaoh said to his people's nobles and masters
O eminent ones, I do not know that you have any god other than me
So you worship Him
And believe the words of Moses
You and he have a usury other than me
And the idol of Zwai
So work for me, O Haman, for a constructive reward
May I look at the idol of Moses
I believe that what he says is that he has it
An idol worshiped in heaven by the liars
And he and his soldiers were unjustly arrogant on earth
They thought that they would not return to us
So we captured him and his soldiers
So we abandoned them in the city
So look at what was the end of the wrongdoers
Pharaoh and his soldiers were arrogant in the land of Egypt
About believing in Moses and the monotheism of God without truth
They thought that after their death they would not be resurrected
There is no reward or punishment
So we gathered Pharaoh and his Copt soldiers
So we threw them all into the sea
So we drowned them in it
So look, O Muhammad, with the eyes of your heart
What was the situation of those who wronged themselves?
So they disbelieved in their Lord
And We made them imams calling to Hell
On the Day of Resurrection, they will not be helped
And We made Pharaoh and his people imams to be followed
People who rebel against God and disbelieve in Him
They call people to the actions of the people of Hell
On the Day of Resurrection, he will not support them
If God tortures them, Nasser
They were fighting each other in this world
That victory vanished at that time
We followed them in this world as a curse
On the Day of Resurrection, they will be among the hated
We committed Pharaoh and his people in this world
With shame and anger from us towards them
And we, their followers, will be another curse on the Day of Resurrection
They will be subjected to perpetual disgrace
They are among the people whom God has reviled
So He destroyed them because of their disbelief in their Lord
So make them an example for those who consider it
And We gave Moses the Book
After We destroyed the first centuries
Insights for people
Insights for people
And guidance and mercy, so that they may remember
And We gave Moses the Torah
After We destroyed the nations that were before him
Like the people of Noah, Ad and Thamud
And the people of Lot and the companions of Media
Dia for those who are Israel among them
It is needed by their religion
And a clarification for them and a mercy for those of them who act upon it
To remember God's blessings upon them
So they thank Him for it and do not disbelieve
And I was not on the western side
When We conveyed the matter to Moses
And I was not one of the witnesses
And you, Muhammad, were not near the west of the mountain
When we imposed the matter on Moses and obliged him and his people
And you were not one of the witnesses to that
But we created centuries
So their lives are prolonged
And I was not a resident of the people of Medina
Our verses are recited to them
Our verses are recited to them
But we were missionaries
But we created nations
So we updated it after that
So their lives are prolonged
And I was not residing among the people of Midian
You did not witness any of that, Muhammad
But it was we who sent the messengers
And I was not beside the stage
When we called, but it was a mercy from your Lord
To warn a people against whom no warner has come
By you, perhaps they will remember
And you, Muhammad, were not beside the mountain
When Moses called us, “I will write it.”
For those who fear and pay zakat
And those who believe in Our signs
Those who follow the Messenger, the illiterate Prophet
You did not witness any of that, Muhammad
So you learn it
But we knew you
And We sent down to you
And We sent you to creation
Mercy from us to you and to them
To warn a people to whom no warner had come before you
They are the Arabs to whom he was sent
The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
To remember how wrong they are
Resurrecting from their disbelief in their Lord
They will come to acknowledge God
With oneness and singling Him out for worship
Unless a calamity befalls them
For what their hands have provided
And they say, “Our Lord.”
Had you not sent us a messenger?
So we will follow your signs
And we will be among the believers
And had it not been for those who said...
I sent you to them, Muhammad
If misfortune befalls them
Or Our torment came upon them
Before we send you to them
They would have said, “Our Lord.”
Did you not send us a messenger?
Before your wrath befalls us
We follow your evidence
And we will be among the believers
In your divinity, those who believe in your messenger
But We sent you as a warner to them
So that people do not have authority over God
An argument after the Messengers
When the truth came to them
From us
They said if it had not been given to me
Like what was given to Moses
Did they not disbelieve?
With what Moses was given
before
They said they were magicians pretending
And they said, “We are disbelievers in every way.”
When Muhammad came to them
May God bless him and grant him peace
By message
They said rebellion against God
May I not be given to Muhammad?
May God bless him and grant him peace
Like what was given to Moses
Bin Imran from the book
Say, O Muhammad, to your people from Quraysh
Did not those who disbelieve?
They learned this argument from the Jews
With what was given to Moses before you
And they said: When Moses was given of the Torah
And when Jesus was given the Gospel
Two magicians cooperated
She said the Jews
We have every book on earth
From the Torah, the Gospel, the Psalms, and the Criterion
Unbelievers
Say: Bring a book from God
He was calmer than them
Follow
Follow him if you are honest
Say, O Muhammad, to those who say
For the Torah and the Bible
They are both pretend magic
Bring a book from God
He guided them both to the path of truth
Follow him if you are honest
In your claim
These two books are magical
And the right is in others
If they do not respond to you
Know that they do not follow their desires
Who is more astray than he who follows his desires?
Without guidance from God
God does not guide unjust people
If these people do not answer you
Know that they do not follow their desires
And that which they speak
They say in both books
A false and false statement that has no truth
And who strays from the path of guidance?
And the method of payment
Whoever follows his own passion
Without a statement from God
God does not help
Right injury
And the people's path to maturity
Those who disobeyed God's command
They abandoned his obedience
And they denied His Messenger
