Read Surah Ash-Shuara

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

اِنَّا نَطْمَعُ اَنْ یَّغْفِرَ لَنَا رَبُّنَا خَطٰیٰنَاۤ اَنْ كُنَّاۤ اَوَّلَ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَؕ۠۝۵۱

We certainly hope our Lord will forgive our sins as we are the first to believe."

وَ اَوْحَیْنَاۤ اِلٰی مُوْسٰۤی اَنْ اَسْرِ بِعِبَادِیْۤ اِنَّكُمْ مُّتَّبَعُوْنَ۝۵۲

We said to Moses: "Travel by night with My creatures. You will surely be pursued."

فَاَرْسَلَ فِرْعَوْنُ فِی الْمَدَآىِٕنِ حٰشِرِیْنَۚ۝۵۳

Then the Pharaoh sent announcers to the cities,

اِنَّ هٰۤؤُلَآءِ لَشِرْذِمَةٌ قَلِیْلُوْنَۙ۝۵۴

(Proclaiming): "Surely they are a small band (of fugitives).

وَ اِنَّهُمْ لَنَا لَغَآىِٕظُوْنَۙ۝۵۵

They are always harassing us.

وَ اِنَّا لَجَمِیْعٌ حٰذِرُوْنَؕ۝۵۶

But we are a fully accounted army."

فَاَخْرَجْنٰهُمْ مِّنْ جَنّٰتٍ وَّ عُیُوْنٍۙ۝۵۷

So We made them leave the gardens and springs of water,

وَّ كُنُوْزٍ وَّ مَقَامٍ كَرِیْمٍۙ۝۵۸

And treasures and agreeable mansions.

كَذٰلِكَ ؕ وَ اَوْرَثْنٰهَا بَنِیْۤ اِسْرَآءِیْلَؕ۝۵۹

Thus it was; and We made the children of Israel possess them.

فَاَتْبَعُوْهُمْ مُّشْرِقِیْنَ۝۶۰

But they pursued them at sunrise.
