Commentary
It is commanded that Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) solicited: Our
Lord! It seems that Pharaoh and his people will never change their way of life.
They have two things, due to which; nature of the mankind becomes corrupted.
They are healthy and possess food in abundance, sources of conveyance,
well-built and decorated houses, wealth and property, even every thing. Until
they possess these all things, ease and pleasantness of life, they will never
listen to any individual, and will do that what they desire. You have given
them all kinds of luxurious enjoyment. But unfortunately those things have
become means of their deviation and they use force against others. They have
gone astray, as well as lead others to give up the Straight Path.
It is known from this verse that wealth and property, good health,
arrangements of comfort and pleasure are grant of Allah Almighty. He gives such
things with His Bounty and Favor; to whom He desires. But these entire things
are for testing all mankind. He wishes to see: whether the people use these
things in accordance with the commands of Allah Almighty or choose the way of
rebellion by strutting, become rulers themselves and begin to molest the
creature of Allah Almighty.
Those people who are prosperous, they should learn from these verses
that they should help the poor and insolvent people and spend their wealth and
power in correcting their condition, and move forward by taking all along with
themselves.
