Commentary
‘Arjih – (Put him
off), actually this word is ‘arja’-hu. ‘Irjaaa’ is
word of command, origin of which is ‘irjaaa-‘un, which has been
derived from raja-‘un. Rajaaa’ means strong hopes
and expectation. ‘Irjaaa’ means
“to give trust, to cause to wait for”. Here it aims: To put off for some time.
Saahirun – (a wizard),
it is a subject, which has been derived from sah-run. This word has
passed in Chapter - 2 (Surah) ‘Al-Baqarah. Sah-run means
enchantment, magic. The reality of the sahar is only so, that
an individual establishes his mind on something. When he gets good practice, he
puts impact of his perception on the ideas of others and they begin to think as
he is thinking. Such individual is called wizard, magician. Saahirun
‘aliim is that individual, who has become at home in his practice of
enchantment. After looking the miracles of Prophet Moses (peace be upon Him),
the people of Pharaoh began to say: It seems that He (peace be upon Him) is a
great wizard.
It is commanded that when chief courtiers of Pharaoh saw the
miracles of Prophet Moses (peace be upon Him), they said to Pharaoh: The
wizards use to show the conjurations like these. It seems that Moses (peace be
upon Him) is an expert magician. It is better that Moses (peace be upon Him)
and His Brother should be left in like manner for some days and presently they
should not be questioned. We should send our summoners hither and thither in
every part of the country, that they search, collect and bring the expert
wizards in this court, so that they all collectively break the power of the
magic of Moses (peace be upon Him).
Pharaoh
considered that his courtiers were saying correct. He determined that miracles
of Moses (peace be upon Him) are nothing but an illusion. Ignorance and
stupidity of Pharaoh and his people did not let them reach the depth of this
matter. Any persistent can do nothing except determination of defeating the
opposite and bigotry of his thought. These are manners of own destruction.
