    87. In those days he used this word for the sake of respect, because in their hearts there was great respect for magic, and looked upon the magicians with great admiration. Otherwise, when making dua how will he utter the word of disgrace?
    88. By covenant is meant either of Musa (On whom be peace) being one whose prayer is accepted, or his Prophethood (Khazain). From this, emerge a few issues:
    1. Beseeching a pious person to make dua for oneself is one of the ancient practices.
    2 The infidels, and even people of the Pharaoh had acknowledged that the Prophet is the fulfiller of needs, remover of difficulties and redresser of grievances. In their times of difficulties they would come to the Prophets to relieve their difficulties. Those who reject this are greater in ignorance than the Pharaoh because Allah Almighty had not declared this action of the Pharaoh as infidelity and polytheism.
    3. By going to the Prophets the severest difficulties of the infidels are being solved. The believers get greater care for their problems.
    4. To declare Faith in Allah Almighty and in his beloved Prophet state in state of compulsion and helplessness is unacceptable.
