Chapter 26, Page 370, Juz 19

52. And We inspired Moses, ˹saying,˺ “Leave with My servants at night, for you will surely be pursued.” 53. Then Pharaoh sent mobilizers to all cities, 54. ˹and said,˺ “These ˹outcasts˺ are just a handful of people, 55. who have really enraged us, 56. but we are all on the alert.” 57. So We lured the tyrants out of ˹their˺ gardens, springs, 58. treasures, and splendid residences. 59. So it was. And We awarded it ˹all˺ to the Children of Israel. 60. And so they pursued them at sunrise. 61. When the two groups came face to face, the companions of Moses cried out, “We are overtaken for sure.” 62. Moses reassured ˹them˺, “Absolutely not! My Lord is certainly with me—He will guide me.” 63. So We inspired Moses: “Strike the sea with your staff,” and the sea was split, each part was like a huge mountain. 64. We drew the pursuers to that place, 65. and delivered Moses and those with him all together. 66. Then We drowned the others. 67. Surely in this is a sign. Yet most of them would not believe. 68. And your Lord is certainly the Almighty, Most Merciful.
