about the story of Qarun?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The Children of Israel: Did they all escape with Musa, or did some remain?

The Shaykh : Qarun was from the people of Musa, from the Children of Israel, but he did not perish with Pharaoh:
And We caused the earth to swallow him and his home فخسفنا به وبداره الأرض
[Al-Qasas 28:81]
.

The questioner : I mean the ones who escaped with Musa?

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : Were they all believers in him? Because the apparent meaning of the verses speaks of the fate of the Children of Israel!

The Shaykh : Who?

The questioner : Musa.

The Shaykh : It came.

The questioner :
so send with me the Children of Israel." أن أرسل معي بني إسرائيل
[Al-A'raf 7:105]


The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : He did not say it; he did not stipulate who would be with him!

The Shaykh : No, this was a request from Pharaoh. You need to follow the verses and we will see, if Allah wills.

The questioner : The request was from Musa; Musa asked Pharaoh to send the Children of Israel with him.

The Shaykh : In any case, it requires following the verses.
