Question:
Can it be said that the miracle performed by Musa (peace be upon him) falls under what is called imagination?
Answer:
No, what Musa did is not what the magicians of Pharaoh did. The magicians of Pharaoh created an illusion for Musa, making it appear as if their staffs were moving. That is what they did. This was the magic of Pharaoh’s magicians. Yes.
