    40. Perhaps we may follow [47] these magicians if they overcome [48].

    Ibn-Kathir

    The tafsir of Surah Ash-Shura verse 40 by Ibn Kathir is unavailable here.
    Please refer to Surah Shura ayat 38 which provides the complete commentary from verse 38 through 48.

    (26:40) We may perhaps follow the religion of the magicians if they triumph.”[33]

    Ala-Maududi

    (26:40) We may perhaps follow the religion of the magicians if they triumph.”[33]

    33. This sentence confirms the idea that those who had witnessed the miracle of Moses (peace be upon him) in the royal court and those who had heard of it reliably outside were losing faith in their ancestral religion, and now the strength of their faith depended on this that their own magicians also should give a performance similar to that of Moses (peace be upon him). That is why Pharaoh and his chiefs themselves regarded this contest as a decisive one, and their heralds were busy moving about in the land, impressing on the people that if the magicians won the day, they would yet be secured against the risk of being won over to Moses’ (peace be upon him) religion, otherwise there was every possibility of their creed being exposed and abandoned forever.

    (40) That we might follow the magicians if they are the predominant?"
