Explanatory Note

For their part, the sorcerers mustered their best efforts and skills, starting the match in Pharaoh’s name and with his help: “So they threw their ropes and staffs; and said: ‘By Pharaoh’s might, it is we indeed who will prevail.’“ The sūrah does not tell us what happened to their ropes and staffs, which is detailed in Sūrahs 7 and 20, The Heights and Ţā Hā respectively. Thus it retains the atmosphere of reassurance and steadfastness in support of the truth.
