# Ayat
26:31
قَالَ فَأْتِ بِهِ إِنْ كُنْتَ مِنَ الصَّادِقِينَ
(Pharaoh) said: "Show it then, if thou tellest the truth!"
26:32
فَأَلْقَىٰ عَصَاهُ فَإِذَا هِيَ ثُعْبَانٌ مُبِينٌ
So (Moses) threw his rod, and behold, it was a serpent, plain (for all to see)!
26:33
وَنَزَعَ يَدَهُ فَإِذَا هِيَ بَيْضَاءُ لِلنَّاظِرِينَ
And he drew out his hand, and behold, it was white to all beholders!
26:34
قَالَ لِلْمَلَإِ حَوْلَهُ إِنَّ هَٰذَا لَسَاحِرٌ عَلِيمٌ
(Pharaoh) said to the Chiefs around him: "This is indeed a sorcerer well-versed:
26:35
يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُخْرِجَكُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِكُمْ بِسِحْرِهِ فَمَاذَا تَأْمُرُونَ
"His plan is to get you out of your land by his sorcery; then what is it ye counsel?"
26:36
قَالُوا أَرْجِهْ وَأَخَاهُ وَابْعَثْ فِي الْمَدَائِنِ حَاشِرِينَ
They said: "Keep him and his brother in suspense (for a while), and dispatch to the Cities heralds to collect-
26:37
يَأْتُوكَ بِكُلِّ سَحَّارٍ عَلِيمٍ
"And bring up to thee all (our) sorcerers well-versed."
26:38
فَجُمِعَ السَّحَرَةُ لِمِيقَاتِ يَوْمٍ مَعْلُومٍ
So the sorcerers were got together for the appointment of a day well-known,
26:39
وَقِيلَ لِلنَّاسِ هَلْ أَنْتُمْ مُجْتَمِعُونَ
And the people were told: "Are ye (now) assembled?-
26:40
لَعَلَّنَا نَتَّبِعُ السَّحَرَةَ إِنْ كَانُوا هُمُ الْغَالِبِينَ
"That we may follow the sorcerers (in religion) if they win?"
26:41
فَلَمَّا جَاءَ السَّحَرَةُ قَالُوا لِفِرْعَوْنَ أَئِنَّ لَنَا لَأَجْرًا إِنْ كُنَّا نَحْنُ الْغَالِبِينَ
So when the sorcerers arrived, they said to Pharaoh: "Of course - shall we have a (suitable) reward if we win?
26:42
قَالَ نَعَمْ وَإِنَّكُمْ إِذًا لَمِنَ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ
He said: "Yea, (and more),- for ye shall in that case be (raised to posts) nearest (to my person)."
26:43
قَالَ لَهُمْ مُوسَىٰ أَلْقُوا مَا أَنْتُمْ مُلْقُونَ
Moses said to them: "Throw ye - that which ye are about to throw!"
26:44
فَأَلْقَوْا حِبَالَهُمْ وَعِصِيَّهُمْ وَقَالُوا بِعِزَّةِ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّا لَنَحْنُ الْغَالِبُونَ
So they threw their ropes and their rods, and said: "By the might of Pharaoh, it is we who will certainly win!"
26:45
فَأَلْقَىٰ مُوسَىٰ عَصَاهُ فَإِذَا هِيَ تَلْقَفُ مَا يَأْفِكُونَ
Then Moses threw his rod, when, behold, it straightway swallows up all the falsehoods which they fake!
26:46
فَأُلْقِيَ السَّحَرَةُ سَاجِدِينَ
Then did the sorcerers fall down, prostrate in adoration,
26:47
قَالُوا آمَنَّا بِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
Saying: "We believe in the Lord of the Worlds,
26:48
رَبِّ مُوسَىٰ وَهَارُونَ
"The Lord of Moses and Aaron."
26:49
قَالَ آمَنْتُمْ لَهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ آذَنَ لَكُمْ ۖ إِنَّهُ لَكَبِيرُكُمُ الَّذِي عَلَّمَكُمُ السِّحْرَ فَلَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ ۚ لَأُقَطِّعَنَّ أَيْدِيَكُمْ وَأَرْجُلَكُمْ مِنْ خِلَافٍ وَلَأُصَلِّبَنَّكُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ
Said (Pharaoh): "Believe ye in Him before I give you permission? surely he is your leader, who has taught you sorcery! but soon shall ye know! Be sure I will cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides, and I will cause you all to die on the cross!"
26:50
قَالُوا لَا ضَيْرَ ۖ إِنَّا إِلَىٰ رَبِّنَا مُنْقَلِبُونَ
They said: "No matter! for us, we shall but return to our Lord!
26:51
إِنَّا نَطْمَعُ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ لَنَا رَبُّنَا خَطَايَانَا أَنْ كُنَّا أَوَّلَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
"Only, our desire is that our Lord will forgive us our faults, that we may become foremost among the believers!"
26:52
وَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَىٰ مُوسَىٰ أَنْ أَسْرِ بِعِبَادِي إِنَّكُمْ مُتَّبَعُونَ
By inspiration we told Moses: "Travel by night with my servants; for surely ye shall be pursued."
26:53
فَأَرْسَلَ فِرْعَوْنُ فِي الْمَدَائِنِ حَاشِرِينَ
Then Pharaoh sent heralds to (all) the Cities,
26:54
إِنَّ هَٰؤُلَاءِ لَشِرْذِمَةٌ قَلِيلُونَ
(Saying): "These (Israelites) are but a small band,
26:55
وَإِنَّهُمْ لَنَا لَغَائِظُونَ
"And they are raging furiously against us;
26:56
وَإِنَّا لَجَمِيعٌ حَاذِرُونَ
"But we are a multitude amply fore-warned."
26:57
فَأَخْرَجْنَاهُمْ مِنْ جَنَّاتٍ وَعُيُونٍ
So We expelled them from gardens, springs,
26:58
وَكُنُوزٍ وَمَقَامٍ كَرِيمٍ
Treasures, and every kind of honourable position;
26:59
كَذَٰلِكَ وَأَوْرَثْنَاهَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ
Thus it was, but We made the Children of Israel inheritors of such things.
26:60
فَأَتْبَعُوهُمْ مُشْرِقِينَ
So they pursued them at sunrise.
