But Our Prophet is given an order: "Oh the Communicator of the Unseen (Prophet). strive hard against the infidels and hypocrites and be strict against them" (S66:V9), because the Holy Prophet ?Himself is compassionate while Hazrat Musa (On whom be peace) is wrathful. Or, another reason is that the Pharaoh had brought him up, therefore that person was entitled for a kinder treatment.Â
48. This hope is with regard to the human beings and not for Allah Almighty. Who was fully aware that the Pharaoh would die an infidel.
