And indeed We did send Musa (Moses) with Our Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) to Fir'aun (Pharaoh) and his chiefs (inviting them to Allah's Religion of Islam) He said: "Verily, I am a Messenger of the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists)." 46 But when he brought them Our signs, lo, they laughed at them. 47 And all the signs We showed them were always greater than the earlier ones; and We seized them with calamities, so that they may return. 48 And they said, “O you magician! Pray for us to your Lord, by the means of His covenant which is with you; we will certainly come to guidance.” 49 But whenever We removed the suffering from them, lo! they would break their word. 50 Then Pharaoh made a proclamation to his people: 'My people, is the kingdom of Egypt not mine and these rivers which flow beneath me? What, can you not see? 51 Am I not better than this contemptible man who can hardly make his meaning clear: 52 and why have not armlets of gold been bestowed on him and why is there not a train of angels accompanying him?" 53 Thus he made light (of the matter) to his people, and they obeyed him. They were certainly wicked. 54 So when they made Us wrathful, We took revenge from them – We therefore drowned all of them. 55 and so We made them a thing of the past, and an example to those who would come after them. 56
