61. And when the two hosts saw each other, the companions of Musa (Moses) said: "We are sure to be overtaken."
   
 
62. [Musa (Moses)] said: "Nay, verily! With me is my Lord, He will guide me."
   
 
63. Then We inspired Musa (Moses) (saying): "Strike the sea with your stick." And it parted, and each separate part (of that sea water) became like the huge, firm mass of a mountain.
   
 
64. Then We brought near the others [Fir'aun's (Pharaoh) party] to that place.
   
 
65. And We saved Musa (Moses) and all those with him.
   
 
66.
Then We drowned the others.
   
 
67. Verily! In this is indeed a sign (or a proof), yet most of them are not believers.
   
 
68. And verily, your Lord! He is truly the All-Mighty, the Most Merciful.
   
 
69. And recite to them the story of Ibrahim (Abraham).
   
 
70. When he said to his father and his people: "What do you worship?"
   
 
71. They said: "We worship idols, and to them we are ever devoted."
   
 
72. He said: "Do they hear you, when you call (on them)?
   
 
73. "Or do they benefit you or do they harm (you)?"
   
 
74. They said: "Nay, but we found our fathers doing so."
   
 
75. He said: "Do you observe that which you have been worshipping,
   
 
76. "You and your ancient fathers?
   
 
77. "Verily! They are enemies to me, save the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists);
   
 
78. "Who has created me, and it is He Who guides me;
   
 
79. "And it is He Who feeds me and gives me to drink.

82. "And Who, I hope will forgive me my faults on the Day of Recompense, (the Day of Resurrection),"
   
 
83. My Lord! Bestow Hukman (religious knowledge, right judgement of the affairs and Prophethood) on me, and join me with the righteous;
   
 
84. And grant me an honourable mention in later generations;
   
 
85. And make me one of the inheritors of the Paradise of Delight;
   
 
86. And forgive my father, verily he is of the erring;
   
 
87. And disgrace me not on the Day when (all the creatures) will be resurrected;
   
 
88. The Day whereon neither wealth nor sons will avail,
   
 
89. Except him who brings to Allah a clean heart [clean from Shirk (polytheism) and
Nifaq (hypocrisy)].
   
 
90. And Paradise will be brought near to the Muttaqun (pious).
