(And Moses said: Our Lord!) O our Lord! (Lo! Thou hast given Pharaoh and his chiefs splendour) beauty (and riches) and abundant riches (in the life of the world, Our Lord!) O our Lord! (that they may lead men astray) that by means of it they may lead your servants astray (from Thy way) from Your religion and obedience. (Our Lord! Destroy their riches and harden their hearts so that they believe not) so that they will not believe (till they see the painful doom) their own drowning.
- 10:8888
وَقَالَ مُوسَىٰ رَبَّنَا إِنَّكَ آتَيْتَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَمَلَأَهُ زِينَةً وَأَمْوَالًا فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا رَبَّنَا لِيُضِلُّوا عَنْ سَبِيلِكَ ۖ رَبَّنَا اطْمِسْ عَلَىٰ أَمْوَالِهِمْ وَاشْدُدْ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمْ فَلَا يُؤْمِنُوا حَتَّىٰ يَرَوُا الْعَذَابَ الْأَلِيمَ
And Moses said: "O Lord, have You bestowed on the Pharaoh and his nobles pomp and plenty in the life of this world that they might mislead people from Your path? Destroy their possessions, O Lord, and harden their hearts that they may not believe until they face the painful punishment."
