Surah TaHa ayat 44 Tafsir Quran 20:44

﴿فَقُولَا لَهُ قَوْلًا لَّيِّنًا لَّعَلَّهُ يَتَذَكَّرُ أَوْ يَخْشَىٰ﴾
[ طه: 44]

20:44 And speak to him with gentle speech that perhaps he may be reminded or fear [Allah]."

And speak to him gentle words for him to renounce such claims that perhaps he may be mindful be admonished or fear’ God and so repent — the ‘hope’ for Pharaoh’s repentance is expressed from their perspective for God knows that he was not going to repent.

And speak gently to him, so that he might hopefully be brought to his senses and entertain a profound reverence for Allah

(20:44) Talk to him in a gentle manner; may be that he is convinced by admonition or imbued with fear." *18

And speak to him with gentle speech meaning

*18) The only two ways of bringing a man to the Right Way are: ( 1 ) To convince him by argument and admonition, or ( 2 ) to warn him of the consequences of deviation.

*18)a.
It appears that they implored AIIah thus before going before Pharaoh when Prophet Moses had reached Egypt and Aaron had joined him in the propagation of the Mission.

 

( And speak unto him a gentle word ) a kind word: there is no deity except Allah; it is also said that this means: call him by his agnomen, ( that peradventure he may heed ) that perhaps he may take admonition ( or fear ) or surrender [ to Allah ].

"And speak to him mildly, perhaps he may accept admonition or fear Allah."
