Commentary
Miiqaati – (a set time), this word has come out
from waqt. Waqt means “time, term, season). Miiqaat is the
time which has been fixed for any particular matter.
‘As-saharatu – (wizards), this word is plural of saahir,
which has been derived from sahar. Sahar means “magic”.
Any refractory person does not wish to accept pressure of any
other. If someone desires to press him, he becomes stiff. If he does not have
power to oppose, then he gathers his supporters, brings them into collision
against his opponent and helps them fully in fighting.
When Pharaoh observed and thought: I am unable to face Moses
(peace be upon him) myself, his Staff becomes a serpent as soon as it is thrown
on the earth; and whiteness of his hand produces radiance in the eyes. I lose
my sense.
By the counsel of his courtiers, Pharaoh sent his summoners in
the entire country and gathered master wizards. Time and date of their famous
and known festival was set for colliding with Moses (peace be upon him). It was
proclaimed by the beat of drum in the township that a great strife between
wizards and Moses (peace be upon him) is being arranged and a very tough competition
will be held. Let us go to the field. It is a matter of our life and death. We shall
have hope of living if our wizards overcome Moses (peace be upon him), then we
shall serve them considering that they are our protectors. Come and encourage
your wizards! As many people will be in the crowd; so much their courage will
increase. We have a strong hope that our people will get victory.
