وأدخل يدك فى جيبك تخرج بيضاء من غير سوء

And put your hand into your bosom, it will come forth white without hurt. (27:12) Ibn Abbas said, "without hurt', means, `not because of leprosy'. Musa inserted his hand again in his sleeve and it returned back to its normal color.'' Mujahid and several others said similarly
