حَقِيقٌ عَلَى أَن لاَّ أَقُولَ عَلَى اللّهِ إِلاَّ الْحَقَّ قَدْ جِئْتُكُم بِبَيِّنَةٍ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ فَأَرْسِلْ مَعِيَ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ
﴿١٠٥﴾
قَالَ إِن كُنتَ جِئْتَ بِآيَةٍ فَأْتِ بِهَا إِن كُنتَ مِنَ الصَّادِقِينَ
﴿١٠٦﴾
فَأَلْقَى عَصَاهُ فَإِذَا هِيَ ثُعْبَانٌ مُّبِينٌ
﴿١٠٧﴾
وَنَزَعَ يَدَهُ فَإِذَا هِيَ بَيْضَاء لِلنَّاظِرِينَ
﴿١٠٨﴾
قَالَ الْمَلأُ مِن قَوْمِ فِرْعَوْنَ إِنَّ هَذَا لَسَاحِرٌ عَلِيمٌ
﴿١٠٩﴾
يُرِيدُ أَن يُخْرِجَكُم مِّنْ أَرْضِكُمْ فَمَاذَا تَأْمُرُونَ
﴿١١٠﴾
قَالُواْ أَرْجِهْ وَأَخَاهُ وَأَرْسِلْ فِي الْمَدَآئِنِ حَاشِرِينَ
﴿١١١﴾
يَأْتُوكَ بِكُلِّ سَاحِرٍ عَلِيمٍ
﴿١١٢﴾
وَجَاء السَّحَرَةُ فِرْعَوْنَ قَالْواْ إِنَّ لَنَا لأَجْرًا إِن كُنَّا نَحْنُ الْغَالِبِينَ
﴿١١٣﴾
قَالَ نَعَمْ وَإَنَّكُمْ لَمِنَ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ
﴿١١٤﴾
قَالُواْ يَا مُوسَى إِمَّا أَن تُلْقِيَ وَإِمَّا أَن نَّكُونَ نَحْنُ الْمُلْقِينَ
﴿١١٥﴾
قَالَ أَلْقُوْاْ فَلَمَّا أَلْقَوْاْ سَحَرُواْ أَعْيُنَ النَّاسِ وَاسْتَرْهَبُوهُمْ وَجَاءوا بِسِحْرٍ عَظِيمٍ
﴿١١٦﴾
وَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَى مُوسَى أَنْ أَلْقِ عَصَاكَ فَإِذَا هِيَ تَلْقَفُ مَا يَأْفِكُونَ
﴿١١٧﴾
فَوَقَعَ الْحَقُّ وَبَطَلَ مَا كَانُواْ يَعْمَلُونَ
﴿١١٨﴾
فَغُلِبُواْ هُنَالِكَ وَانقَلَبُواْ صَاغِرِينَ
﴿١١٩﴾
وَأُلْقِيَ السَّحَرَةُ سَاجِدِينَ
﴿١٢٠﴾

(7/105) It behooves me to say nothing about Allah except the truth. I certainly bring you a manifest proof from your Lord. So let the Children of Israel go with me.’
(7/106) He said, ‘If you have brought a sign, produce it, should you be truthful.’
(7/107) Thereat he threw down his staff, and behold, it became a manifest python.
(7/108) Then he drew out his hand, and behold, it was white to the onlookers.
(7/109) The elite of Pharaoh’s people said, ‘This is indeed an expert magician;
(7/110) he seeks to expel you from your land.’ ‘So what do you advise?’
(7/111) They said, ‘Put him and his brother off for a while, and send heralds to the cities,
(7/112) to bring you every expert magician.’
(7/113) And the magicians came to Pharaoh. They said, ‘We shall indeed have a reward if we were to be the victors?’
(7/114) He said, ‘Of course! And indeed you shall be among those near [to me].’
(7/115) They said, ‘O Moses, will you throw [first], or shall we throw?’
(7/116) He said, ‘Throw [yours].’ So when they threw, they bewitched the people’s eyes and overawed them, producing a tremendous magic.
(7/117) And We signalled to Moses: ‘Throw down your staff.’ And behold, it was swallowing what they had faked.
(7/118) So the truth came out, and what they had wrought was reduced to naught.
(7/119) Thereat they were vanquished, and they retreated, humiliated.
(7/120) And the magicians fell down in prostration.
