“Fear not! Surely you will have the upper hand.”
(Qur’an 20:68)
Moosa (Moses) was especially in trouble on three occasions:
1. When he entered the council of the evil Fir’awn, he said:
“Our Lord! Verily! We fear lest he should hasten to punish us or lest he should transgress [all bounds against us].”
(Qur’an 20:45)
“He [Allah] said:’Fear not, verily! I am with you both, hearing and seeing.'”
(Quran 20:46)
The phrase, “I am with you…, hearing and seeing” should always be in the mind of the Muslim.
2. When the sorcerers threw their rods, Allah, the Almighty, said:
“‘Fear not! Surely you will have the upper hand.'”
(Quran 20:68)
3. When Fir’awn and his army were catching up with Moosa (Moses), Allah said:
“Strike the sea with your stick.”
(Qur’an 26:63)
Moosa (may peace be upon him) said:
“Nay, verily! With me is my Lord, He will guide me.”
(Qur’an 26:62)
