Surah 7 Al-A'raaf — Ayah 141

سُورَةُ الأَعۡرَافِ · Meccan · Yakub Ibn Nugman

141

وَإِذْ أَنجَيْنَٰكُم مِّنْ ءَالِ فِرْعَوْنَ يَسُومُونَكُمْ سُوٓءَ ٱلْعَذَابِ ۖ يُقَتِّلُونَ أَبْنَآءَكُمْ وَيَسْتَحْيُونَ نِسَآءَكُمْ ۚ وَفِى ذَٰلِكُم بَلَآءٌۭ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ عَظِيمٌۭ

Ий Ягъкуб балалары! Без сезне Фиргаун кауменнән коткардык, алар сезне каты ґәзаб белән ґәзаб кылыр иделәр, кыз балаларыгызны калдырып, ир балаларыгызны үтерер иделәр. Ошбу эшләрдә Аллаһ тарафыннан олугъ бәла вә сынау бар сезнең өчен.

wa-idh anjaynākum min āli fir'ʿawna yasūmūnakum sūa l-ʿadhābi yuqattilūna abnāakum wayastaḥyūna nisāakum wafī dhālikum balāon min rabbikum ʿaẓīmun

Tafsir · Ibn Kathir (Abridged)

Reminding the Children of Israel of Allah's Blessings for Them

Musa reminded the Children of Israel of Allah's blessings, such as saving them from Fir`awn, his tyranny and the humiliation and disgrace they suffered. He reminded them of the glory and revenge against their enemy, when they watched them suffering in disgrace, destroyed by drowning and meeting utter demise. We mentioned this subject in the Tafsir of Surat Al-Baqarah.
