Sura-26 [Al Shu'ara'mecca 47]

26:64

And We caused the pursuers 34 to draw near unto that place: (26:65) and We saved Moses and all who were with him, (26:66) and then We caused the others to drown. 35 (26:67) In this [story], behold, there is a message [unto all men], even though most of them will not believe [in it]. (26:68) And yet, verily, thy Sustainer - He alone -is almighty, a dispenser of grace! 36

The Quranic Text & Ali’s version:

وَأَنجَيْنَا مُوسَى وَمَن مَّعَهُ أَجْمَعِينَ ﴿٦٥﴾

26:65. We delivered Moses and all who were with him;

ثُمَّ أَغْرَقْنَا الْآخَرِينَ ﴿٦٦﴾

26:66. But We drowned the others.

إِنَّ فِي ذَلِكَ لَآيَةً...

26:67. Verily in this is a Sign:

...وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ ﴿٦٧﴾

but most of them do not believe.

C3173. As it was then, so it is now. In spite of the obvious Signs of Allah, people who are blind in their obstinate resistance to Truth accomplish their own destruction, while humble, persecuted men of Faith are transformed by the Light of Allah, and obtain salvation.

وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الرَّحِيمُ ﴿٦٨﴾

26:68. And verily thy Lord is He, the Exalted in Might, Most Merciful.

C3174. Nothing that the powers of evil can do, will ever defeat the merciful Purpose of Allah. Evil, in resisting good, will effect its own destruction.
