7.101 . Such were the townships . We relate some tidings of them unto thee ( Muhammad ) . Their messengers verily came unto them with clear proofs ( of Allah ' s Sovereignty ) , but they could not believe because they had before denied . Thus doth Allah print upon the hearts of disbelievers ( that they hear not ) .
7.102 . We found no ( loyalty to any ) covenant in most of them . Nay , most of them We found wrong doers .
7.103 . Then , after them , We sent Moses with our tokens unto Pharaoh and his chiefs , but they repelled them . Now , see the nature of the consequence for the corrupters!
7.104 . Moses said : O Pharaoh! Lo! I am a messenger from the Lord of the Worlds ,

7.116 . He said : Throw! And when they threw they cast a spell upon the people ' s eyes , and overawed them , and produced a mighty spell .
7.117 . And We inspired Moses ( saying ) : Throw thy staff! And lo! it swallowed up their lying show .
7.118 . Thus was the Truth vindicated and that which they were doing was made vain .
7.119 . Thus were they there defeated and brought low .
7.120 . And the wizards fell down prostrate ,
