The Holy Quran 7:128 — Surah Al-A'raf

Arabic text

قَالَ مُوسَىٰ لِقَوْمِهِ ٱسْتَعِينُوا۟ بِٱللَّهِ وَٱصْبِرُوٓا۟ ۖ إِنَّ ٱلْأَرْضَ لِلَّهِ يُورِثُهَا مَن يَشَآءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِۦ ۖ وَٱلْعَـٰقِبَةُ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ

Translation

(When the Bani Israa'eel complained to Moosa عليه الصلاة والسلام about Firoun's oppression against them) Moosa عليه الصلاة والسلام said to his people, "Seek help from Allaah (Who is more powerful than Fir'oun) and be patient. Surely the earth belongs to Allaah. He gives it (its ownership) as inheritance to whichever of His bondsmen He desires. The final outcome (ultimate good) shall be in favour of those with Taqwa (they shall be successful in the Aakhirah)."

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The exhortation of Musa ﵇ to his people: that is, there is no cause for alarm. Before Allah no one's power avails; the land is His, and He grants it to whomever He sees fit. So, against the oppressor, seek help from Him alone. Keep your gaze on Him alone, fear Him alone, adopt the path of patience and taqwa (mindfulness of Allah)
