Quran 79:19 Tafsir Ibn Kathir
Mentioning the Story of Musa and that it is a Lesson for Those Who fear Allah
Allah informs His Messenger Muhammad ﷺ about His Messenger Musa.
He mentions that he sent Musa to Fir`awn and He aided him with miracles.
Yet, even after this, Fir`awn continued in his disbelief and transgression until Allah seized him with a mighty and powerful punishment.
Thus is the punishment of whoever opposes you ( Muhammad ﷺ ) and rejects that which you have been sent with.
This is why Allah says at the end of the story,
إِنَّ فِى ذَلِكَ لَعِبْرَةً لِّمَن يَخْشَى
( In this is a Lesson for whoever fears. ) Allah begins by saying,
هَلْ أَتَاكَ حَدِيثُ مُوسَى
( Has there come to you the story of Musa ) meaning, have you heard of his story
إِذْ نَادَاهُ رَبُّهُ
( When his Lord called him ) meaning, He called out speaking to him.
بِالْوَادِ الْمُقَدَّسِ
( in the holy valley ) meaning purified
طُوًى
( Tuwa ) According to what is correct, it is the name of a valley, as preceded in Surah Ta Ha.
So, He said to him:
اذْهَبْ إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّهُ طَغَى
( Go to Fir`awn; verily, he has transgressed all bounds. ) meaning, he has become haughty, rebellious and arrogant.
فَقُلْ هَل لَّكَ إِلَى أَن تَزَكَّى
( And say to him: "Would you purify yourself" ) meaning, say to him, "Will you respond to the path and way that will purify you" This means, `will you submit ( accept Islam ) and be obedient'
وَأَهْدِيَكَ إِلَى رَبِّكَ
( And that I guide to your Lord, ) meaning, `I will guide you to the worship of your Lord.'
فَتَخْشَى
( so that you fear ) meaning, `so that your heart will become humble, obedient, and submissive to Him after it was hard, evil, and far away from goodness.'
فَأَرَاهُ الاٌّيَةَ الْكُبْرَى
( Then he showed him the great sign. ) This means that Musa showed him -- along with this truthful call -- a strong evidence and a clear proof of the truthfulness of what he had come up with from Allah.
فَكَذَّبَ وَعَصَى
( But he denied and disobeyed. ) meaning, he ( Fir`awn ) rejected the truth and opposed what Musa commanded him with of obedience.
So what happened with him was that his heart disbelieved, and Musa ( i.e., his call ) could not internally or externally affect it.
Along with this, his knowledge that what Musa had come to him with was the truth, did not necessitate his being a believer in it.
This is because recognition is the knowledge of the heart, and faith is its action.
And it ( faith ) is to comply with the truth and submit to it.
Concerning Allah's statement,
ثُمَّ أَدْبَرَ يَسْعَى
( Then he turned back, striving. ) meaning, in responding to the truth with falsehood.
This was by his gathering the group of magicians in order to confront that which Musa had come up with of spectacular miracles.
فَحَشَرَ فَنَادَى
( So he gathered (his people ) and called out) meaning, among his people.
فَقَالَ أَنَاْ رَبُّكُمُ الاٌّعْلَى
( Saying; I am your lord, most high." ) Ibn `Abbas and Mujahid both said, "This is the word which Fir`awn said after he said,
مَا عَلِمْتُ لَكُمْ مِّنْ إِلَـهٍ غَيْرِى
( `I have not known of any other god for you all other than me ) for the past forty years."' Allah then says,
فَأَخَذَهُ اللَّهُ نَكَالَ الاٌّخِرَةِ وَالاٍّوْلَى
( So Allah seized him with a punishing example for the Hereafter and the first (life ).
) meaning, Allah avenged Himself against him with a severe vengeance, and He made an example and admonition of him for those rebellious people in the world who are like him.
وَيَوْمَ الْقِيَـمَةِ بِئْسَ الرِّفْدُ الْمَرْفُودُ
( And on the Day of Resurrection, evil indeed is the gift gifted i.e., the curse (in this world ) pursued by another curse ( in this world ) pursued by another curse ( in the Hereafter ).) ( 11:99 ) This is as Allah says,
وَجَعَلْنَـهُمْ أَئِمَّةً يَدْعُونَ إِلَى النَّارِ وَيَوْمَ الْقِيـمَةِ لاَ يُنصَرُونَ
( And We made them leaders inviting to the Fire: and on the Day of Resurrection, they will not be helped. ) ( 28:41 ) Allah said;
إِنَّ فِى ذَلِكَ لَعِبْرَةً لِّمَن يَخْشَى
( In this is a lesson for whoever fears. )
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(79:19) that I may direct you to your Lord and then you hold Him *8 in awe?' '
And let me guide you to your meaning
*8) Here, one should understand a few things well:
( 1 ) The dialogue that took place between the Prophet Moses and Allah Almighty at the time of appointing him to the office of Prophethood has been related at some places briefly and at others in full detail in the Qur'an as the occasion demanded.
Here; brevity was the need; therefore, only a resume has been given.
Fuller details are found in Ta Ha: 9-48, Ash-Shua`ra': 10-17, An=Naml: 7-12, AI-Qasas: 29-35.
( 2 ) The rebellion of the Pharaoh referred to here relates to his transgressing the bounds of service and rebelling both against the Creator and against His creatures.
As for his rebellion against the Creator, it is being mentioned a little below when he gathered his people together and prolaimed: " I am your lord, the supreme. " As against the creatures his rebellion was that he had divided his subjects into classes; he treated the weak classes tyrannically and had reduced his entire nation to slavery as has been mentioned in Al-Qasas: 4 and Az-Zukhruf: 54.
( 3 ) The instruction given to Moses was: " Go, you and your brother Aaron, to Pharaoh for he has transgressed all bounds.
Talk to him gently; maybe that he is convinced by admonition or is imbued with fear. " ( Ta Ha: 44 ).
One model of the gentle speech has been given in these verses, which shows what right method a preacher should adopt when preaching to a perverted man.
Other models are given in Ta Ha: 49-52, Ash-Shua`ra': 23-28, and Al-Qasas: 37.
These verses are of those in which Allah has taught the correct methods of preaching Islam in the Qur'an.
( 4 ) The Prophet Moses had not been sent to Pharaoh only for the deliverance of the children of Israel as some people seem to think but the primary object of his appointment was to show Pharaoh and his people the right way, and the second object was that if he did not accept the right way, the children of Israel ( who in fact were a Muslim people ) should be taken out of his slavery and from Egypt.
This thing becomes plain from these verses too, for there is no mention whatever in these of the deliverance of the children of Israel, but the Prophet Moses has been commanded to present the message of the Truth before Pharaoh, and this is confirmed by those verses also in which the Prophet Moses has preached Islam as well as demanded freedom of the children of Israel, e.g.
see Al-A`raf 104-105, Ta Ha: 47-52, Ash-Shua ara': 16-17, 23-28.
( For further explanation, see E.N.
74 of Yunus ).
( 5 ) Here, " to adopt purity " means to adopt purity of belief, morals and deeds, or, in other words, to accept Islam.
Ibn Zaid says: " Wherever in the Qur'an the word tazakka ( purity ) has been use, it implies acceptance of Islam. " As an example of this he has cited the following three verses: " And this is the reward of him who adopts purity ", i.e.
accepts Islam; " and what would make you know that he might adopt purity ", i.e.
becomes a Muslim ( `Abasa:3 ); " And you would not be responsible if he did not adapt purity ", i.e.
did not become a Muslim ( `Abasa: 7 ).
( Ibn Jarir ).
( 6 ) " That I may guide you to your Lord so that you may have fear ( of Him ) " means: " When you recognize your Lord and come to know that you are His slave, and not a free man, you will inevitably have fear of Him in your heart, for fear of God is the thing on which depends the right attitude of man in the world.
Without the knowledge and fear of God no purity of the self can be possible. "

He mentions that he sent Musa to Fir`awn and He aided him with miracles.

Thus is the punishment of whoever opposes you ( Muhammad ﷺ ) and rejects that which you have been sent with.

فَقُلْ هَل لَّكَ إِلَى أَن تَزَكَّى
( And say to him: "Would you purify yourself" ) meaning, say to him, "Will you respond to the path and way that will purify you" This means, `will you submit ( accept Islam ) and be obedient'
وَأَهْدِيَكَ إِلَى رَبِّكَ
( And that I guide to your Lord, ) meaning, `I will guide you to the worship of your Lord.'
فَتَخْشَى
( so that you fear ) meaning, `so that your heart will become humble, obedient, and submissive to Him after it was hard, evil, and far away from goodness.'

وَجَعَلْنَـهُمْ أَئِمَّةً يَدْعُونَ إِلَى النَّارِ وَيَوْمَ الْقِيـمَةِ لاَ يُنصَرُونَ
( And We made them leaders inviting to the Fire: and on the Day of Resurrection, they will not be helped. ) ( 28:41 ) Allah said;

Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs
( Then I will guide thee ) I will call you ( to thy Lord and thou shalt fear (Him )) and therefore surrender to Him.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
And that I guide you to your Lord, so you should fear Him?
We try our best to translate, keeping in mind the Italian saying: "Traduttore, traditore", which means: "Translation is a betrayal of the original text".
