Fir`awn's Address to His People and how Allah punished Him

Allah tells us how Fir`awn stubbornly persisted in his rebellion and disbelief. He assembled his people and addressed them in a vainglorious fashion, boasting of his dominion over Egypt.

أَلَيْسَ لِى مُلْكُ مِصْرَ وَهَـذِهِ الاٌّنْهَـرُ تَجْرِ

Read in Context

Chapter 43, Page 493, Juz 25

46. Indeed, We sent Moses with Our signs to Pharaoh and his chiefs, and he said: “I am a messenger of the Lord of all worlds.” 47. But as soon as he came to them with Our signs, they laughed at them, 48. although every sign We showed them was greater than the one before. Ultimately, We seized them with torments so that they might return ˹to the Right Path˺. 49. ˹Then˺ they pleaded, “O ˹mighty˺ magician! Pray to your Lord on our behalf, by virtue of the covenant He made with you. We will certainly accept guidance.” 50. But as soon as We removed the torments from them, they broke their promise. 51. And Pharaoh called out to his people, boasting, “O my people! Am I not sovereign over Egypt as well as ˹all˺ these streams flowing at my feet? Can you not see? 52. Am I not better than this nobody who can hardly express himself? 53. Why then have no golden bracelets ˹of kingship˺ been granted to him or angels come with him as escorts!” 54. And so he fooled his people, and they obeyed him. They were truly a rebellious people. 55. So when they enraged Us, We inflicted punishment upon them, drowning them all. 56. And We made them an example and a lesson for those after them.
