Tafsir

Scholarly commentary explaining a verse — its context, its meaning and how the scholars have understood it.

Yunus 10:83

Word by word

فَمَآ ءَامَنَ لِمُوسَىٰٓ إِلَّا ذُرِّيَّةٌ مِّن قَوْمِهِۦ عَلَىٰ خَوْفٍ مِّن فِرْعَوْنَ وَمَلَإِي۟هِمْ أَن يَفْتِنَهُمْ ۚ وَإِنَّ فِرْعَوْنَ لَعَالٍ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَإِنَّهُۥ لَمِنَ ٱلْمُسْرِفِينَ

But no one believed Moses, except [some] offspring [i.e., youths] among his people, for fear of Pharaoh and his establishment that they would persecute them. And indeed, Pharaoh was haughty within the land, and indeed, he was of the transgressors.

فما آمن لموسى عليه السلام مع ما أتاهم به من الحجج والأدلة إلا ذرية من قومه من بني إسرائيل، وهم خائفون من فرعون وملئه أن يفتنوهم بالعذاب، فيصدُّوهم عن دينهم، وإن فرعون لَجبار مستكبر في الأرض، وإنه لمن المتجاوزين الحد في الكفر والفساد.
