Sura 28
Aya 18
18
فَأَصبَحَ فِي المَدينَةِ خائِفًا يَتَرَقَّبُ فَإِذَا الَّذِي استَنصَرَهُ بِالأَمسِ يَستَصرِخُهُ ۚ قالَ لَهُ موسىٰ إِنَّكَ لَغَوِيٌّ مُبينٌ

Yusuf Ali

So he saw the morning in the city, looking about, in a state of fear, when behold, the man who had, the day before, sought his help called aloud for his help (again). Moses said to him: “Thou art truly, it is clear, a quarrelsome fellow!”1
  • The man was an Israelite. But Moses was himself in a distracted mood, for the reasons given in n. 3342 above, and he was exasperated at this public appeal to him again.
