زِينَةً وَأَمْوَالاً فِي ٱلْحَيَاةِ ٱلدُّنْيَا رَبَّنَا لِيُضِلُّواْ عَن
سَبِيلِكَ رَبَّنَا ٱطْمِسْ عَلَىٰ أَمْوَالِهِمْ وَٱشْدُدْ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمْ
فَلاَ يُؤْمِنُواْ حَتَّىٰ يَرَوُاْ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلأَلِيمَ

The Aya says:
And Moses said: “Our nurturing lord, you
have indeed provided Pharaoh and his entourage adornment and riches in this
life. Our nurturing lord to lead astray
from your path. Our lord make their
riches null and make their hearts narrow so they will not attain faith until
they have seen painful suffering.”
My personal note:
This is Moses’s prayer that Pharaoh and
his people will not attain faith until they suffer in a painful way.
Translation of the transliterated words:
waqāla: And
said
Note: WA here is for initiation of a sentence that is
connected to the previous subject. QALA is derived from the

that is derived from the root. It means the action of saying happened by the

people) happened by the subject (third person singular) .
fir`ʿawna: Pharaoh
wamala-ahu: and his
people/ and his entourage
Note: WA is a letter that links what is
before with what is after. This link is through inclusion, either one is
included in the other or they are all included in the bigger sentence or bigger
picture. WA is often translated as an
addition (and), but inclusion probably covers the meaning a little better.
MALAA is derived from the root M-L-Hamza and it means filling or full. MALAI means the
leaders or the big group. This is related to the full because the big group has
the feeling of being full and the leaders are full of authority and supposed

better. At other times it carries a

previously mentioned. Here it serves
inclusion mostly. AMWALAN is derived from the

life. In here, it takes the meaning of
