135. 1. That is, when a punishment would come, they would become distressed and come to Musa (AS), and through his supplication it would be lifted, but instead of believing, they would persist in their disbelief and polytheism. Then another punishment would come, and they would do the same. In this way, five punishments came upon them at intervals, but the arrogance in their hearts and the pride in their minds became shackles on their feet in the path of truth. Even after seeing such clear signs, they remained deprived of the blessing of faith.
