Explanation
Translation
Pharaoh said; “Bring all the best sorcerers to me who have the best knowledge.”
Tafsir
Pharaoh claimed greatness, that is, godhood, over people on earth. He tortured those who did not recognize him as a god. At this time, Allah sent Moses and his brother Aaron to Pharaoh. Pharaoh, in his greatness and pride and far from believing in Allah, did not believe in the Prophethood of Moses. He summoned the greatest magicians in his country. It was to defeat Hazrat Moses through magicians and to prove that he was the god of the people. So messengers were sent all over Egypt and the greatest magicians were brought from all over Egypt.
What is said in the video
Pharaoh said, “Bring me all the knowledgeable, learned magicians.” Pharaoh, as a result of some miracles that Moses showed Pharaoh, concludes that he is a magician. He concludes he is a magician and says, “Bring me all the learned magicians in my land. All the learned magicians.” When Moses (peace be upon him) came to Pharaoh: “I am the messenger of your Lord. With the duty given to me, as the messenger of Allah I convey this to you: there is no god but Allah. Give up your claim to divinity.” Upon this he says, “How am I to know that you are a messenger?” Then Allah Almighty: put your hand into your bosom, it comes out pure white.
Sir, when he puts his hand into his bosom like this and it comes out looking pure white, he concludes that he is a magician. And he says, “Gather all the magicians for me. I will set the most learned magicians against him.” Yes. Upon this Pharaoh said, “Bring me all the learned magicians.” Pharaoh had acted arrogantly, that is, played god, over the people on earth. He tortured those who did not present him, did not acknowledge him, as god. At that time Allah sent to Pharaoh Moses and his brother Aaron. Pharaoh's family saw themselves as gods. As a divine lineage, descended from God. They worshipped the stars in the sky.
Pharaoh. On earth too they built temples in the shape of stars and worshipped them. And at the same time he made people worship him.
And Allah Almighty sent Moses and his brother Aaron to Pharaoh. Pharaoh, in arrogance and pride, far from faith in Allah, did not believe in Moses' prophethood. He summoned the greatest magicians of his land. This was so that, through the magicians, he could defeat Moses and prove that he himself was the god of the people. For this reason messengers were sent to every corner of Egypt and magicians were brought from every corner of Egypt.
