[Pharaoh] said, "You believed Moses before I gave you permission. Indeed, he is your leader who has taught you magic, but you are going to know. I will surely cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides, and I will surely crucify you all."
Tafsir
Verse range: 26:49
Between Fir`awn and the Sorcerers His threats against them resulted only in an increase in their faith and submission to Allah, for the veil of disbelief had been lifted from their hearts and the truth became clear to them because they knew something that their people did not: that what Musa had done could not have been done by any human being unless Allah helped him, making it proof and an evidence of the truth of what he had brought from his Lord. Allah tells that:
قال آمنتم له قبل أن آذن لكم
He (Fir`awn) said: You have believed in him before I give you leave. meaning, `you should have asked my permission for what you did, and you did not consult with me; if I had given you permission you could have done it, and if I did not allow you, you should not have done it, for I am the ruler and the one to be obeyed.'
إنه لكبيركم الذي علمكم السحر
Surely, he indeed is your chief, who has taught you magic! This is stubborn talk, and anyone can see that it is nonsense, for they had never met Musa before that day, so how could he have been their chief who taught them how to do magic! No rational person would say this.
فلسوف تعلمون ﻻقطعن أيديكم وأرجلكم من خﻼف وﻻصلبنكم أجمعين
So verily, you shall come to know. Verily, I will cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides, and I will crucify you all.'' Then Fir`awn threatened to cut off their hands and feet, and crucify them
