DAY 198: Taha 77-82

•  And We surely inspired Moses, ˹saying,˺ “Leave with My servants ˹at night˺ and strike a dry passage for them across the sea. Have no fear of being overtaken, nor be concerned ˹of drowning˺.” Then Pharaoh pursued them with his soldiers—but how overwhelming were the waters that submerged them! And ˹so˺ Pharaoh led his people astray, and did not guide ˹them rightly˺. O Children of Israel! We saved you from your enemy, and made an appointment with you on the right side of Mount Ṭûr, and sent down to you manna and quails, ˹saying,˺ “Eat from the good things We have provided for you, but do not transgress in them, or My wrath will befall you. And whoever My wrath befalls is certainly doomed. Surely I am the Most-Forgiving for him who repents and believes and acts righteously, then follows the right path. “
  (
      Divine Deliverance: Allah saves the oppressed who trust in Him.
      Tyrants Face Justice: Pharaoh’s end is a warning to arrogant rulers.
      Tests Follow Blessings: Freedom and provision come with responsibilities.
      Mercy Over Wrath: Sincere repentance is always accepted.
      
      After drowning Pharaoh, Allah liberates the Israelites, tests them with wilderness provisions , and reaffirms His mercy for the repentant —showing that divine rescue demands gratitude, not rebellion.
