Consequence of haughtiness (L-2979)

فَٱسْتَخَفَّ قَوْمَهُۥ فَأَطَاعُوهُ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَوْمًا فَٰسِقِينَ 54   فَلَمَّآ ءَاسَفُونَا ٱنتَقَمْنَا مِنْهُمْ فَأَغْرَقْنَٰهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ 55   فَجَعَلْنَٰهُمْ سَلَفًا وَمَثَلًا لِّلْءَاخِرِينَ 56 وَلَمَّا ضُرِبَ ٱبْنُ مَرْيَمَ مَثَلًا إِذَا قَوْمُكَ مِنْهُ يَصِدُّونَ 57   وَقَالُوٓا۟ ءَأَٰلِهَتُنَا خَيْرٌ أَمْ هُوَ مَا ضَرَبُوهُ لَكَ إِلَّا جَدَلًۢا بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌ خَصِمُونَ 58

54.  Fastakhaffa  qawmahuu  fa-‘ataa-'uuh.  ‘Innahum  kaanuu  qawman faasiqiin. 55.  Falammaaa  ‘aasafuunan-taqamNaa  minhum fa-‘agraq-Naahum  ‘ajma-'iin. 56.  Faja-'alNaahum  salafanw-wa  Masalal-lil-‘aakhiriin. (Section 5/11) 57.  Wa  lammaa  zuribabnu- Maryama  masalan  ‘izaa  qawmuka  minhu  yasidduun. 58.  Wa  qaaluuu  'a-‘aalihatu-naa  khayrun  ‘am  huu.  Maa zarabiihu  laka  ‘illaa  jadalaa. Bal-hum  qawmun  khasimuun.

54. Thus he fooled his people, and they obeyed him. They were wicked people. 55. And when they provoked Our wrath, We took retribution from them, and We drowned them all. 56. Thus We made them a precedent and an example for the others. 57. And when the son of Mary was cited as an example, your people opposed. 58. They said, “Are our gods better, or he?” They cited him only for argument. In fact, they are a quarrelsome people.

It is commanded: Pharaoh fooled the people of his folk and they began to obey him. In fact they were wrongdoers. After that, when they enraged Us, We punished them and drowned all of them in the River. We made them a precedent and an example for the later peoples.

After that, it is commanded: When We made mention of Jesus (Peace be upon him), then they found another evasion. They began to say: Because Jesus (Peace be upon him) also is adored, so what will happen with him, the same will happen with our gods. However; our gods are better than him. It is commanded: They did not present the comparison except for mere argument because they desired to raise dispute. They are quarrelsome naturally and seek excuses for ascribing plurality to God Almighty.
