84. 1. The humiliation and disgrace that the Children of Israel suffered at the hands of Pharaoh did not decrease even after the coming of Musa (peace be upon him), so they were extremely distressed. In fact, they even said to Musa (peace be upon him), "O Musa, just as before your coming we were afflicted with hardships from Pharaoh and his people, our condition remains the same after your coming." Upon this, Musa (peace be upon him) told them that he hoped his Lord would soon destroy their enemy. But for this, it is necessary that you seek help only from Allah and do not let go of patience (see Surah Al-A'raf, verses 128, 129) (قَالَ مُوْسٰي لِقَوْمِهِ اسْتَعِيْنُوْا باللّٰهِ وَاصْبِرُوْا ۚ اِنَّ الْاَرْضَ لِلّٰهِ ڐ يُوْرِثُهَا مَنْ يَّشَاۗءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهٖ ۭوَالْعَاقِبَةُ لِلْمُتَّقِيْنَ 128؁ قَالُوْٓا اُوْذِيْنَا مِنْ قَبْلِ اَنْ تَاْتِيَنَا وَمِنْۢ بَعْدِ مَا جِئْتَنَا ۭ قَالَ عَسٰي رَبُّكُمْ اَنْ يُّهْلِكَ عَدُوَّكُمْ وَيَسْتَخْلِفَكُمْ فِي الْاَرْضِ فَيَنْظُرَ كَيْفَ تَعْمَلُوْنَ 129؀). Here too, Musa (peace be upon him) advised them that if you are truly obedient to Allah, then put your trust in Him alone.
