Ash-Shu'ara • Ayah 23 of 227 • Anglo-Saxon English
قَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ وَمَا رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ
Translation:
Pharaoh said: "And what is the 'Lord and Cherisher of the worlds'?" Ash-Shu'ara 26:23 ⧉
Tafsir:
‘What is this: Lord of the Worlds?’ This utterance of Pharaoh was meant to convey ridicule rather than ask a question. But Moses, without being irritated, replied to him in a normal manner. Again Pharaoh sought to show his disapproval of Moses by asking his courtiers, ‘Did you hear?’ Moses ignored this also and continued with what he had to say.
