Quran 28:38 — History (Al-Qasas)

وَقالَ فِرعَونُ يٰأَيُّهَا المَلَأُ ما عَلِمتُ لَكُم مِن إِلٰهٍ غَيرى فَأَوقِد لى يٰهٰمٰنُ عَلَى الطّينِ فَاجعَل لى صَرحًا لَعَلّى أَطَّلِعُ إِلىٰ إِلٰهِ موسىٰ وَإِنّى لَأَظُنُّهُ مِنَ الكٰذِبينَ

Pharaoh said, "O you elders, I have not known of any god for you other than me. Therefore, fire the adobe, O Hamaan, in order to build a tower, that I may take a look at the god of Moses. I am sure that he is a liar."

[28:37] Moses said, "My Lord knows best who brought the guidance from Him, and who will be the ultimate victors. Surely, the transgressors never succeed."

[28:39] Thus, he and his troops continued to commit arrogance on earth, without any right, and thought that they would not be returned to us.
