* تفسير Tafsir al-Jalalayn


{ وَإِذْ قَالَ مُوسَىٰ لِقَوْمِهِ ٱذْكُرُواْ نِعْمَةَ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ إِذْ أَنجَاكُمْ مِّنْ آلِ فِرْعَوْنَ يَسُومُونَكُمْ سُوۤءَ ٱلْعَذَابِ وَيُذَبِّحُونَ أَبْنَآءَكُمْ وَيَسْتَحْيُونَ نِسَآءَكُمْ وَفِي ذٰلِكُمْ بَلاۤءٌ مِّن رَّبَّكُمْ عَظِيمٌ }

And mention when Moses said to his people ‘Remember God’s grace to you when He delivered you from the folk of Pharaoh who were inflicting upon you a dreadful chastisement and were slaughtering your sons the new-born and sparing keeping alive your women — this was because some of the priests of Egypt had stated that a child born among the Israelites shall be the cause of the destruction of Pharaoh’s kingdom; and in that deliverance — or in that chastisement — was a tremendous trial grace — or a tremendous test — from your Lord.
