121. 1. The magicians knew the art of magic and its true reality. When they saw this, they understood that what Musa (عليه السلام) had presented here was not magic; indeed, he is truly a representative of Allah, and it is only with Allah's help that he has presented this miracle, which in a single moment rendered all our tricks null and void. Thus, they declared their faith in Musa (عليه السلام). From this, it becomes clear that falsehood is falsehood, no matter how many beautiful coverings are placed over it, and truth is truth, no matter how many veils are cast over it; nevertheless, the truth will always prevail.
