Purity and Safety, O Mohammed!
2. Those are the revelations of the Book [: the Quran] that makes things clear. a
3. We recite to you, [Mohammed,] of the story of Moses and Pharaoh: a true account b, to [rehearse it to] a people c who believe [in it.]
4. Now Pharaoh d had exalted himself in the land [of Egypt] and had divided its people into sects [honoring some and subjecting others], abasing one party of them [: the Children of Israel], slaughtering their [newly born] sons, and sparing their women [to live]; for he was one of the workers of corruption.
5. Yet We liked to be Gracious to those [Children of Israel] that were abased in the land [of Egypt, by saving them from the torture of Pharaoh], and to make them religious leaders, and to make them the inheritors [of the possession of Pharaoh.]
6. And to establish them in the earth e; and to show Pharaoh and Haman [his minister] and their hosts that which they feared from them f.

d Pharaoh of Moses (the pharaoh of the Exodus) was Merneptah, the son of Ramses II who reigned in the year 1223 BC; he was the thirteenth son of Ramses II; he was a great military general during the reign of his father; among his titles were: ( the Great Priest of gods: Yetah-Sim, the highest General of the Army, the Royal Scribe and the Guard of the Temple Sacred Objects); he ruled Egypt for 19 years and 6 months; his age when he reigned was 58 years.
6
e With much crops, cattle and wealth.

f Concerning the disappearing of the sovereignty of Pharaoh and the authority of Haman.
Haman was a minister of Pharaoh.
And another Haman, appeared to Jews later on, who was a minister of King Xerxes; he was Haman son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, who was enraged against Jews because Mordecai the uncle of Esther did not respect Haman and did not kneel down or pay him honor, i.e. he did not kneel to salute him.
Therefore, Haman cheated King Xerxes and said to him: “Jews are a wicked people who work mischief and seditions in the earth, so they should be killed and terminated from it.”
The king said: "Do with them as you please." And he permitted him to kill them.
So when Esther the king’s wife heard that, and he did not know she was a Jew, came and beg him for mercy and kindness, and said to him: “Haman is our adversary, and he cheated you with such words.”
The king then refrained from killing Jews, and commanded to hang Haman, so they hanged Haman on a gallows seventy-five feet high, he had prepared for hanging Mordecai, and it became his own, on which he was hanged in the citadel of Susa.
And the story is written in the Bible, the Book of Esther.
The interpretation is by Mohammed-Ali Hassan Al-Hilly.

7. And We revealed to Moses’ mother [saying:] "Suckle him a and, when you fear for him b, then cast him into the River [Nile of Egypt.]
And fear not c nor grieve d;
[for surely] We shall [soon] restore him to you, and shall [in the future] make him [one] of [Our] messengers." e
8. And Pharaoh's family picked him up f, that he might be for them an enemy and a [source of] grief g; surely, Pharaoh and Haman and their hosts were guilty h.
9. Said Pharaoh's wife, 'He will be a ‘source of delight and comfort’ to me and you [Pharaoh.] Slay him not; perchance he will profit us, or we will take him for a son.'
And they were not aware [that their destruction would be by his hands.]

10. And the heart of Moses’ mother became void a; and she would have declared about him b, had we not fortified her heart [with firmness c]; that she should be of the believers [in bringing him back to her.]
11. And she said to his sister [Mary]: "Trace him d."
So she observed him from aside [of them], and they perceived [her] not e.
12. And before [bringing him back to his mother] We forbade him foster mothers f; and [Mary his sister] said: "Shall I guide you to a family who will take charge g of him for you and will be sincere to [raise and look after] him?"
13. So We returned him to his mother that she might be ‘delighted and have comfort’ [by seeing him], and that she might not grieve [about missing him], and that she might know that the promise of God is true h, but most of [people] know not. i
14. And when he attained his [thirty years age of] full strength, and reached his [forty years age of the mind] maturity, We offered to him authority [concerning the miracles] and knowledge [about the religion and the Torah.]
Thus do We reward those [of your nation, O Mohammed] who are kind.
