قرآن حکیم (شرح آیات منتخب)

ابطال جادوی جادوگران

در این یه حضرت موسی(ع) حقیقتی را روشن می‌کند تا آنچه را که پیش می‌آید (تبدیل عصا به اژدها) به آن تطبیق کند. آن حقیقت این است که کاری که جادوگران انجام دادند (نشان دادن طناب‌ها و عصاها به صورت مار و ازدها)» سحر است و حقیقت سحر این است که چیز غیر واقعی در مقابل دیدگان مردم به صورت واقعصی جلوه داده شود. پس چون اساس سحر و جادو باطل استء خداوند نیز آن را باطل می‌کند و بیهوده بودن آن را نشان می‌دهد؛ زیرا قانون خدا این است که حق را آشکار و پایدار کند و باطل را از بین ببرده و اگر باطل قدرتی پیدا کنده موقت است و قدرت و پایداری برای حق است. آری» ناپایدار بودن فاسد و باطل در عالم» حقیقتی است که خداوند در بسیاری از آیات قرآن بیان فرموده و در آخر همین آیه نیز بر آن تأکید شده است؛ چنان که می‌فرماید: «خداوند (هرگز) عمل مفسدان را اصلاح نمی‌کند.»
