Why were they seized? (L-2880)
|
ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ كَانَت تَّأْتِيهِمْ رُسُلُهُم بِٱلْبَيِّنَٰتِ فَكَفَرُوا۟ فَأَخَذَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ إِنَّهُۥ قَوِىٌّ شَدِيدُ ٱلْعِقَابِ
22 وَلَقَدْ أَرْسَلْنَا مُوسَىٰ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا وَسُلْطَٰنٍ مُّبِينٍ
23 إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ وَهَٰمَٰنَ وَقَٰرُونَ فَقَالُوا۟ سَٰحِرٌ كَذَّابٌ

22.
That is because their messengers used to come to them with clear proofs, but
they disbelieved, so God seized them. He is Strong, Severe in retribution. 23. We
sent Moses with Our signs, and a clear authority. 24. To Pharaoh, Hamaan, and Quaroon. But they said, “A lying
sorcerer.” |
It is commanded: Ancient people were punished because they left the right path and chose the crooked path. The mankind must understand by studying their circumstances and observing signs of ruins in their dwelling places that those people will also be dealt with the same punishment; who will go against the rules prescribed by God Almighty. Prophets of God Almighty (Peace be upon them) came to them for their guidance and produced such open tokens and clear proofs that there could be no doubt in their Prophet-hood after observing them. But those rebellious people falsified their sayings and denied from believing. God Almighty punished them on their misconduct because He is Most Powerful and His punishment is very severe.
Listen to circumstances of some ancient refractory people from them! Some of them were proud of their power and kingdom as Pharaoh. Some used to boast of their management and planning as Haman. Some were arrogant due to their abundant wealth as Korah. Messenger Moses (Peace be upon him) came among them. They disregarded him by adjudging that he was a liar and a wizard, whereas Moses (Peace be upon him) had produced before them such clear tokens in which there could be no doubt, and they had nothing to say against his proofs. Even then they did not admit his sayings due to haughtiness of their power, sense and wealth. https://youtu.be/tnZOt6phNpk
