Surah Ash Shu'ara Tafseer

After the Rational Proof, Fir`awn resorts to Force

Allah tells:

قَالَ

He (Fir`awn) said:

When proof had been established against Fir`awn, clearly and rationally, he resorted to using force against Musa, thinking that after this there would no further room for discussion. So he said:

لَيِنِ اتَّخَذْتَ إِلَهًا غَيْرِي لَاَجْعَلَنَّكَ مِنَ الْمَسْجُونِينَ

If you choose a god other than me, I will certainly put you among the prisoners.

To this, Musa responded:

قَالَ أَوَلَوْ جِيْتُكَ بِشَيْءٍ مُّبِينٍ
