The benefits of the saying of Allah the Exalted: << و أن ألق عصاك . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . >

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
And his saying:
Throw your staff, and when he saw it movingأن ألق عصاك فلما رآها تهتز
As-Sunan al-Kubra lil-Nasa'i 65:348
In this is evidence that Moses ... the staff, by his saying:
Throw your staff ألق عصاك
.
And in it is evidence of the power of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), because as soon as he threw it, it began to move as if it were a snake; this is evidence of power.
And in it is also evidence of the wisdom of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), in that this verse is appropriate for those whom Moses would face, and who would face him? The magicians. And this verse is entirely appropriate for them, because they would be unable to counter it ...
And among them is also that this staff ... because the jinn ... which is known for its rapid movement.
And among them is that what is permissible for the prophets is permissible for others, namely natural fear, by his saying:
he turned in flight and did not return ولى مدبرا ولم يعقب
[An-Naml 27:10]
Even though Moses, as you know, was among the strong men, but what befalls others of the humans befalls him, and it has been mentioned previously that he left the city in fear, looking around.
And among them is also the care of Allah the Exalted for him, where He called him and reassured him by saying:
Come forward and do not fearأقبل ولا تخف
And He did not limit Himself to saying:
Do not fearلا تخف
but He asked him to turn toward Him
Come forward and do not fearأقبل ولا تخف
And this indicates the care of Allah for him and ... for him.
And among them is also that it is recommended for the one who calls another to mention the reason for that, by his saying:
Indeed, you are of the secure. إنك من الآمنين
[Al-Qasas 28:31]
Because if he said: Do not fear. Then the fear would be removed from him, but he would not be among the secure ones .. But if he said:
You are among the secure onesإنك من الآمنين
He would increase thereby ...
And among them is also that it is recommended to mention the counterparts or point to them so that that would be more firm for the heart, by his saying:
Indeed, you are of the secure. إنك من الآمنين
[Al-Qasas 28:31]
