بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ

28.15

وَ دَخَلَ الْمَدِیْنَةَ عَلٰى حِیْنِ غَفْلَةٍ مِّنْ اَهْلِهَا فَوَجَدَ فِیْهَا رَجُلَیْنِ یَقْتَتِلٰنِ ﱪ هٰذَا مِنْ شِیْعَتِهٖ وَ هٰذَا مِنْ عَدُوِّهٖۚ-فَاسْتَغَاثَهُ الَّذِیْ مِنْ شِیْعَتِهٖ عَلَى الَّذِیْ مِنْ عَدُوِّهٖۙ-فَوَكَزَهٗ مُوْسٰى فَقَضٰى عَلَیْهِ ﱪ قَالَ هٰذَا مِنْ عَمَلِ الشَّیْطٰنِؕ-اِنَّهٗ عَدُوٌّ مُّضِلٌّ مُّبِیْنٌ(15)

Kanz-ul-Irfan

And He entered the city during the time of siesta for its inhabitants ,[1] finding there two men fighting; one who was from his group and the other from his enemies. So the one who was from his group sought his help against the one who was from his enemies. Mūsā struck him with his fist and finished him. He said, “This is from the work of Satan;[2] he is an open, misguiding enemy.”

Commentary

[1]

Prophet Mūsā عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم entered the city discreetly because he had now begun declaring the truth and refuting the misguidance of Pharaoh and his people. The Israelites would listen to his words and follow him. When news of this spread, Pharaoh’s people began searching for him, so now whenever he would enter a village, he would do so at a time when the people there were unaware.

[2]

This is a reference to the Copt’s oppression against the Israelite, in other words, the oppression of the Copt towards the Israelite, which led to his own death, was the work of Satan. Alternatively, it is a reference to the killing which occurred unintentionally at the hands of Mūsā عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم, i.e., the act of killing the Copt was (apparently) from Satan.
