When his Lord called him in the sacred valley of Tûwa. (16) Go to Fir'aun (Pharaoh), verily, he has transgressed all bounds (in crimes, sins, polytheism, disbelief). (17) And say to him: "Would you purify yourself (from the sin of disbelief by becoming a believer)", (18) And that I guide you to your Lord, so you should fear Him? (19) Then [Mûsa (Moses)] showed him the great sign (miracles). (20) But [Fir'aun (Pharaoh)] belied and disobeyed; (21) Then he turned his back, striving (against Allâh) (22) Then he gathered (his people) and cried aloud, (23) Saying: "I am your lord, most high", (24) So Allâh, seized him with punishment for his last and first transgression. [Tafsir At-Tabari] (25) Verily, in this is an instructive admonition for whosoever fears Allâh. (26) Are you more difficult to create, or is the heaven that He constructed? (27) He raised its height, and has perfected it, (28) Its night He covers with darkness, and its forenoon He brings out (with light). (29) And after that He spread the earth; (30) And brought forth therefrom its water and its pasture; (31) And the mountains He has fixed firmly, (32) (To be) a provision and benefit for you and your cattle, (33) But when there comes the greatest catastrophe (i.e. the Day of Recompense), (34) The Day when man shall remember what he strove for, (35) And Hell-fire shall be made apparent in full view for (every) one who sees, (36) Then, for him who transgressed all bounds (in disbelief, oppression and evil deeds of disobedience to Allâh). (37) And preferred the life of this world (by following his evil desires and lusts), (38) Verily, his abode will be Hell-fire; (39) But as for him who feared standing before his Lord, and restrained himself from impure evil desires, and lusts. (40) Verily, Paradise will be his abode. (41) They ask you (O Muhammad (SAW)) about the Hour, - when will be its appointed time? (42) You have no knowledge to say anything about it, (43) To your Lord belongs (the knowledge of) the term thereof? (44) You (O Muhammad (SAW)) are only a warner for those who fear it, (45) The Day they see it, (it will be) as if they had not tarried (in this world) except an afternoon or a morning. (46)
