Clarification that the body of Pharaoh, the companion of Musa, is not present
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Some people said regarding the saying of Allah the Exalted: [Yunus:92] This verse indicates that the body of Pharaoh has remained preserved in the pyramids,And some fabricate and say: We have seen the body, and some scholars say this. Is there any basis for their statement?
They have no basis whatsoever. But those who want to boast about the relics of the Pharaohs—and wretched is what they boasted of and rejoiced in—They are the ones who say: That Pharaoh, the companion of Musa, is in the pyramids, this is a lie and a statement with no foundation. A man in the middle of the sea and in torment, how can anyone dare to extract this body from the sea? Is it possible? And where are the tools and machines that would preserve him until someone comes to build the pyramids and place him in the pyramids? Where is this? This is a lie and false.
But as I said: Those who have gone mad with love for antiquities are the ones who take such claims.
Then what pride do we have, O brothers, in the body of one whom Allah (Mighty and Majestic) destroyed, whom Allah and His Messenger refuted? What pride do we have in this? There is no pride in this. But Allah saved Pharaoh with his body; because Pharaoh had terrified and frightened the Children of Israel, and you know that when a person has someone he fears before him, his heart does not find peace until he sees him destroyed and dead, because Satan casts into his heart that Pharaoh has been saved, and Pharaoh will return to you, O Children of Israel! And he will do such and such to you,His saying: (to those who came after you) meaning: to the Children of Israel, and (to those who came after you) meaning: at the same time. It is not far-fetched that there is a reading, but it does not come to my mind now, whether there is a reading (to those who succeeded you) meaning: to those who succeeded you in your land. And those who succeeded him in his land were the Children of Israel at that time. But I do not know about this verse; do not rely on it being a reading, I do not remember. But (to those who came after you) meaning: from the Children of Israel at that time.
So today We will save you in body that you may be to those who succeed you a sign
فَالْيَوْمَ نُنَجِّيكَ بِبَدَنِكَ لِتَكُونَ لِمَنْ خَلْفَكَ آيَةًThey have no basis whatsoever.
