Ash-Shu'ara 55: “They have certainly angered us.”

Yet they have certainly enraged us, says Allah Almighty. Why did he cause anger?

He gave Moses many miracles. 'O Moses, lift this drought from us, and we will believe in you,' they said. Moses (?) to Allah Almighty, and the drought was lifted. Again Pharaoh pursued his claim to godhood. Allah Almighty inflicted the scourge of locusts on them. And finally, 'Save us from the locusts and we will believe in Allah,' they said. Then, you see, again they did not believe in Allah. Allah Almighty turned their water into blood. When the Children of Israel take water, it does not become blood; they drink. When they take water from the Children of Israel, the Children of Israel, it becomes blood in their hands; they cannot drink.

He shows nine miracles. Still, every time: lift this, and we will believe. Does Allah Almighty not know? He knows that he will not believe. Lift this, and we will believe. He lifts it; he does not believe. According to what? He gives him a chance until he has dug his own pit. In fact, according to the covenant he gave, Allah Almighty knows he will not believe. But He shows it to people as a lesson. After seeing so many miracles, it is impossible for a person not to believe, but a person cannot give up his nature. That is, if tar boils, it says, can it become sugar? It takes after its (?) kind, it says.

Whatever covenant you have, you will take after it. Yes. Yet they have certainly enraged us, He says. Now the final (?) has come. We gave you a chance in the face of so many miracles. Through all these chances, despite seeing the truth, you still dug in your heels. And now you will kill these people. Is that so, He says? Is that so? Besides Pharaoh's claim to godhood, his not keeping his word and, against helpless people, setting out to slaughter them, because they were a wrongdoing people who transgressed the bounds, they increased the wrath of Allah Almighty, and they committed (?) that would bring about their own destruction.
