Commentary
It is commanded that when the Truth reached, they said on the basis of
their sense and knowledge that it was evident magic, and except it they could originate
nothing but think that they should consider the miracles of the Prophets (peace
be upon them) as juggling of the magicians. Prophet Moses (peace be upon him)
told them: juggling of the magicians are not real things, by showing which,
some intelligent people please the public or grand people and receive some cash
from them for their livelihood. They can never claim: We are Prophets of Allah;
you will be punished by Him if you will not obey us.
If they do so, it cannot be accepted and they can never succeed in
their pretension. Moreover, if they claim any big pretension, then their magic fails
also. And they lose their power of providing temporary amusement. About magic;
it has been discussed in Surah ‘Al-Baqarah (Chapter -2). Its reality is
only that some people; whose power of thinking is excessive than ordinary
people, they increase it by practice so much that imagination of other people
follows their ideas and they begin to see the things which a magician imagines.
It depends on his practice and there are fixed methods for it, which are known
to the knowers and they carry it into effect. With the fixed methods, their thinking
power acquires some strength of impressing the viewers on a point. It has many
forms, but it cannot be gotten without practice. Prophets and Messengers (peace
be upon them) of Allah Almighty are on very height from it. They do not do such
kind of practice. They are granted power of showing miracles from Allah
Almighty in time all at once.
