24 Preface إِلىٰ فِرعَونَ وَهامانَ وَقارونَ فَقالوا ساحِرٌ كَذّابٌYusuf AliTo Pharaoh, Haman,1 and Qarun; but they called (him)” a sorcerer telling lies!”...Here are three types of Unfaith, each showing a different phase, and yet all united in opposition to the Truth and Mission of Moses. (1) Pharaoh is the type of arrogance, cruelty, and reliance on brute force; Cf. 28:38-39. (2) Haman was Pharaoh’s minister (n. 3331 to 28:6; also 28:38): he was the type of a sycophant who would pander to the vanity of any man in power. (3) Qarun excelled in his wealth, was selfish in its use, and overbearing to the poor (28:76-81. and n. 3404). They all came to an evil end eventually.
