Ghafir 40:32

and Pharaoh said, ‘Leave me to kill Moses- let him call upon his Lord!- for I fear he may cause you to change your religion, or spread disorder in the land.’

Translation 1260

Moses said, ‘I seek refuge with my Lord and yours from every tyrant who refuses to believe in the Day of Reckoning.’

Translation 1260

A secret believer from Pharaoh’s family said, ‘How can you kill a man just for saying, “My Lord is God”? He has brought you clear signs from your Lord- if he is a liar, on his own head be it- and if he is truthful, then at least some of what he has threatened will happen to you. God does not guide any rebellious, outrageous liar

Translation 1260

My people, as masters in the land you have the power today, but who will help us against God’s might if it comes upon us?’ But Pharaoh said, ‘I have told you what I think; I am guiding you along the right path.’

Translation 1260

The believer said, ‘My people, I fear your fate will be the fate of those others who opposed [their prophets]

Translation 1260

the fate of the people of Noah, Ad, Thamud, and those who came after them- God never wills injustice on His creatures

Translation 1260

My people, I fear for you on the Day you will cry out to one another

Translation 1260

the Day you will turn tail and flee with no one to defend you from God! Whoever God leaves to stray will have no one to guide him

Translation 1260

Joseph came to you before with clear signs, but you never ceased to doubt the message he brought you. When he died, you said, “God will not send another messenger.”’ In this way God leaves the doubting rebels to stray

Translation 1260

those who dispute God’s messages, with no authority given to them, are doing something that is loathed by God and by those who believe. In this way God seals up the heart of every arrogant tyrant

Translation 1260

Pharaoh said, ‘Haman, build me a tall tower so that I may reach the ropes that lead

Translation 1260

to the heavens to look for this God of Moses. I am convinced that he is lying.’ In this way the evil of Pharaoh’s deed was made alluring to him and he was barred from the right path- his scheming led only to ruin

Translation 1260

The believer said, ‘My people, follow me! I will guide you to the right path

Translation 1260

My people, the life of this world is only a brief enjoyment; it is the Hereafter that is the lasting home

Translation 1260

Whoever does evil will be repaid with its like; whoever does good and believes, be it a man or a woman, will enter Paradise and be provided for without measure

Translation 1260

My people, why do I call you to salvation when you call me to the Fire

Translation 1260

You call me to disbelieve in God and to associate with Him things of which I have no knowledge; I call you to the Mighty, the Forgiving One

Translation 1260

There is no doubt that what you call me to serve is not fit to be invoked either in this world or the Hereafter: our return is to God alone, and it will be the rebels who will inhabit the Fire

Translation 1260

[One Day] you will remember what I am saying to you now, so I commit my case to God: God is well aware of His servants.’

Translation 1260

So God saved him from the harm they planned. A terrible punishment engulfed Pharaoh’s people

Translation 1260

they will be brought before the Fire morning and evening. On the Day the Hour comes, it will be said, ‘Throw Pharaoh’s people into the worst torment.’

Translation 1260

In the Fire they will quarrel with one another: the weak will say to the haughty, ‘We were your followers, so can you now relieve us from some share of the Fire?’

Translation 1260

but they will say, ‘We are all in this together. God has judged between His creatures.’

Translation 1260

Those in the Fire will say to the keepers of Hell, ‘Ask your Lord to lessen our suffering for one day,’

Translation 1260

but they will say, ‘Did your messengers not come to you with clear evidence of the truth?’ They will say, ‘Yes they did,’ and the keeper will say, ‘You can plead, then, but the pleas of disbelievers will always be in vain.’
