قَالَ رَبِّ اِنِّىۡ لَاۤ اَمۡلِكُ اِلَّا نَفۡسِىۡ وَاَخِىۡ فَافۡرُقۡ بَيۡنَـنَا وَبَيۡنَ الۡـقَوۡمِ الۡفٰسِقِيۡنَ‏ ۝

Qala rabbi innee la amliku illanafsee waakhee fafruq baynana wabayna alqawmi alfasiqeen

Moses said, "My Lord, indeed I do not possess i.e., control except myself and my brother, so part us from the defiantly disobedient people."

The Insight

Musa prayed to be separated from the disobedient and wicked people who had openly rebelled. **Set firm moral boundaries.** It is necessary to separate yourself from those who persistently and openly defy God's commands, protecting your own piety and integrity. |
