Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Did the people of Musa (peace be upon him) return to Egypt after the destruction of Pharaoh and his people?
Answer:
They marched with them to Bayt al-Maqdis (Jerusalem), but they stopped short of fighting because there were tyrants in it, namely the Israelites, who are cowardly.[Al-Ma'idah 5:22] until they said, seeking refuge in Allah, [Al-Ma'idah 5:24] "We are sitting here."
So Allah punished them with wandering; He forbade them from entering Bayt al-Maqdis for forty years, wandering in the land as a punishment for them, a punishment for them. When they were in their final stage and the young man of Musa (peace be upon him), Yusha' ibn Nun, appeared and led them to Bayt al-Maqdis, they obeyed him and fought until Allah the Exalted gave them victory and they entered Bayt al-Maqdis, which Allah had commanded them to enter and liberate from the disbelievers. Yes.

Answer:
They marched with them to Bayt al-Maqdis (Jerusalem), but they stopped short of fighting because there were tyrants in it, namely the Israelites, who are cowardly.
They said, "O Moses, indeed within it is a people of tyrannical strength, and indeed, we will never enter it until they leave it; but if they leave it, then we will enter."
قَالُوا يَا مُوسَىٰ إِنَّ فِيهَا قَوْمًا جَبَّارِينَ وَإِنَّا لَن نَّدْخُلَهَا حَتَّىٰ يَخْرُجُوا مِنْهَا فَإِن يَخْرُجُوا مِنْهَا فَإِنَّا دَاخِلُونَso go, you and your Lord, and fight. Indeed,
فَاذْهَبْ أَنتَ وَرَبُّكَ فَقَاتِلَا إِنَّاSo Allah punished them with wandering; He forbade them from entering Bayt al-Maqdis for forty years, wandering in the land as a punishment for them, a punishment for them.
