وَلَقَدْ أَرَيْنَٰهُ ءَايَٰتِنَا كُلَّهَا فَكَذَّبَ وَأَبَىٰ 56
قَالَ أَجِئْتَنَا لِتُخْرِجَنَا مِنْ أَرْضِنَا بِسِحْرِكَ يَٰمُوسَىٰ 57
فَلَنَأْتِيَنَّكَ بِسِحْرٍ مِّثْلِهِۦفَٱجْعَلْ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكَ مَوْعِدًا لَّا نُخْلِفُهُۥ نَحْنُ وَلَآ أَنتَ مَكَانًا سُوًى 58
56. And We verily did show him all Our Tokens, but he denied them and refused.
57. He said: Hast thou come to drive us out from our land by thy magic, O Moses?
58. Then we too shall bring to thee magic the like thereof; so appoint a tryst between us and you, which neither we nor thou fail to keep, at a place convenient (to us both). |
56. Wa laqad ‘arayNaahu ‘AayaatiNaa kullahaa fakazzaba wa ‘abaa.

Commentary
Suwan – (convenient, plain, open), actually this word is suwa-yun.
Allaah Almighty commands: We did show Pharaoh all kinds of Portents like natural scenes of the world and the miracles of Moses (peace be upon him), but he considered all of them amusement and sport, and he denied from obeying Our Commandment. He said: You wish to turn the people from us and unto yourself; by showing them these conjurations, so that after driving us out; you may become a king. Good! Stop! We too shall bring to you magic as you showed. You should appoint a tryst between us and you for a certain time and a certain open field, a competition will be arranged among both of us before all the people.
Amorous people of authority and wealth; do not understand that there can be any other supreme object also except excessive demand of worldly things.
