مَن جَآءَ بِٱلۡحَسَنَةِ فَلَهُۥ خَيۡرٞ مِّنۡهَا وَهُم مِّن فَزَعٖ يَوۡمَئِذٍ ءَامِنُونَ ٨٩
(Will be rewarded with better than it), Allah's reward will be much better than the servant's deeds, words, and remembrance. Moreover, the pleasure from Allah with the servant will be greater than his deed. This is due to the multiplication of reward, as Allah will reward him ten times as much as his deed, and will grant him an eternal bliss for his belief during his short worldly life. Al-Qurtubi: 16/224.
Question: What is the meaning of: (Will be rewarded with better than it)?
وَأَنۡ أَتۡلُوَاْ ٱلۡقُرۡءَانَۖ فَمَنِ ٱهۡتَدَىٰ فَإِنَّمَا يَهۡتَدِي لِنَفۡسِهِۦۖ
(And to recite the Quran), I, constantly, read it to the people by repeatedly calling others to it, because of its efficacy in guiding people to the right way. It is said: I read it persistently to unravel the hidden truths between its lines, little by little. Al-Alusi: 10/248.
Question: What is the effect of constantly reading the Holy Quran?
وَمَن ضَلَّ فَقُلۡ إِنَّمَآ أَنَا۠ مِنَ ٱلۡمُنذِرِينَ ٩٢
Meaning: I have an example to follow in the Messengers who warned their people, and did what they had to do in order to convey the Message to them, and fulfil the covenant they had made. Allah will judge their nations to whom they were sent. Ibn Kathir: 3/366.
Question: What is the duty of the warners toward the misguided?
نَتۡلُواْ عَلَيۡكَ مِن نَّبَإِ مُوسَىٰ وَفِرۡعَوۡنَ بِٱلۡحَقِّ لِقَوۡمٖ يُؤۡمِنُونَ ٣
(For people who believe). It is addressed to them, for they have the faith to focus and reflect on it, which would prompt them to accept it and learn from it, so that they will learn from it and be guided, and it will increase them in faith and certainty, adding goodness to their goodness. As for others, they will not benefit from it except in the sense that proof will be established against them. Allah has protected the Quran from them, and made a barrier between them and the Quran, so that they will not understand it. Al-Saadi: 611.
Question: This narration is for those who believe. Why?
إِنَّ فِرۡعَوۡنَ عَلَا فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ
Pharaoh eminence in this worldly life is described as (exalted himself in the land) in order for the lesson in his demise to become the most notable of all lessons. Ibn Ashur: 20/66.
Question: Pharaoh's eminence in this worldly life is described as: (exalted himself in the land). Why?
إِنَّ فِرۡعَوۡنَ عَلَا فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَجَعَلَ أَهۡلَهَا شِيَعٗا
(Factions), groups; where each one followed and supported something different from the other, but they were all under Pharaoh’s command and control like weak pieces of wood. He divided them, lest they unite against him, then he would not gain what he wanted from them. Hence, they became divided, not protecting, rather forsaking each other until they hit bottom. Al-Biqai: 14/240.
Question: Dividing people is always among the objectives of the enemies. What is the effects of division on the power of the nation?
يُذَبِّحُ أَبۡنَآءَهُمۡ وَيَسۡتَحۡيِۦ نِسَآءَهُمۡۚ إِنَّهُۥ كَانَ مِنَ ٱلۡمُفۡسِدِينَ ٤
Pharaoh did that because the priests said to him: A newborn from the Children of Israel will destroy your kingdom. It is said that the fortune tellers told him that, or it was an interpretation of a dream he saw. Al-Zajjaj said: "How foolish Pharaoh was! He did not realize that if the priest was telling the truth, then killing newborns would be of no avail, and if the priest was lying, then the killing would be pointless." Al-Qurtubi: 16/230.
Question: Describe Pharaoh's foolishness.
