Al-Qasas 28:20

Qur'an 28:20

وَجَآءَ رَجُلٌ مِّنْ أَقْصَا ٱلْمَدِينَةِ يَسْعَىٰ قَالَ يَـٰمُوسَىٰٓ إِنَّ ٱلْمَلَأَ يَأْتَمِرُونَ بِكَ لِيَقْتُلُوكَ فَٱخْرُجْ إِنِّى لَكَ مِنَ ٱلنَّـٰصِحِينَ

And a man came from the farthest end of the city, running. He said, "O Moses, indeed the eminent ones are conferring over you [intending] to kill you, so leave [the city]; indeed, I am to you of the sincere advisors."

Al-Qasas 28:20 · Saheeh International

Svenska · Bernström

Och en man kom springande från en längre bort belägen del av staden och ropade: "Moses! Ge dig [genast] av härifrån! Stormännen vill döda dig och överlägger nu om hur de skall gå till väga. Det är mitt ärliga råd; jag hör till dem som vill dig väl."

Recited by Mishary Alafasy, from this verse to the end of the surah. The words light up as they are recited.

وَجَآءَ رَجُلٌ

(And there came a man) He is described as being a man because he had the courage to take a different route, a shorter route than those who were sent after Musa, so he reached Musa first and said to him: "O Musa,

إِنَّ الْمَلاّ يَأْتَمِرُونَ بِكَ

(Verily, the chiefs are taking counsel together about you.)," meaning, `they are consulting with one another about you.'

لِيَقْتُلُوكَ فَاخْرُجْ

(to kill you, so escape.) means, from this land.

إِنِّى لَكَ مِنَ النَّـصِحِينَ

(Truly, I am one of the good advisers to you.)
