Tafsir of Al-Qasas 28:6

And We wished to do a favor to those who were weak in the land, and to make them rulers and to make them the inheritors, And to establish them in the land, and We let Fir`awn and Haman and their armies receive from them that which they feared. And Allah did indeed do this to them, as He says:

وأورثنا القوم الذين كانوا يستضعفون مشارق اﻻرض ومغاربها التي باركنا فيها وتمت كلمت ربك الحسنى على بني إسرآييل بما صبروا ودمرنا ما كان يصنع فرعون وقومه وما كانوا يعرشون

And We made the people who were considered weak to inherit the eastern parts of the land and the western parts thereof which We have blessed. And the fair Word of your Lord was fulfilled for the Children of Israel, because of their endurance. And We destroyed what Fir`awn and his people produced, and what they erected. (7:137) And Allah said:

كذلك وأورثنها بنى إسرءيل

Thus and We caused the Children of Israel to inherit them. (26: 59) Fir`awn hoped that by his strength and power he would be saved from Musa, but that did not help him in the slightest. Despite his great power as a king he could not oppose the decree of Allah, which can never be overcome. On the contrary, Allah's ruling was carried out, for it had been written and decreed from past eternity that Fir`awn would meet his doom at the hands of Musa
