(20:61) (At the time of the encounter) Moses said to them:[33] “Woe to you! Do not invent falsehoods against Allah[34] lest He destroy you with a scourge. Surely those who invent lies shall come to grief.”
33. The adversaries whom Prophet Moses addressed were Pharaoh and his courtiers who had dubbed him as a sorcerer, and not the common people, who had yet to see the encounter between him and the magicians.
34. The inventing of lie was that they had dubbed Allah’s Messenger as a sorcerer and his miracles as a piece of sorcery.
