(Ayah 55) {فَلَمَّاۤ اٰسَفُوْنَا انْتَقَمْنَا مِنْهُمْ …:} From this verse, it is evident that becoming angry and taking revenge are also among the attributes of Allah Almighty, just as being pleased and granting rewards are His attributes. Allah Almighty could have destroyed them with some other punishment, but since Pharaoh had boasted about the rivers flowing beneath him, Allah Almighty took revenge by drowning him in water itself. Generally, the very thing upon which a person boasts becomes the cause of his destruction by Allah.
