Moses said ‘Do you say so of the Truth when it has come to you that it is sorcery? Is this sorcery? when the one who has brought it has indeed prospered and has invalidated the sorcery of the sorcerers? Now sorcerers do not prosper’ the interrogative in both instances is meant as a disavowal.
- 10:7777
قَالَ مُوسَىٰ أَتَقُولُونَ لِلْحَقِّ لَمَّا جَاءَكُمْ ۖ أَسِحْرٌ هَٰذَا وَلَا يُفْلِحُ السَّاحِرُونَ
"You say this of the truth," said Moses, "after it has come to you. Is this magic? But sorcerers do not ever prosper."
