Although the subjugation, suffering and cruelty of the Pharonic regime was now a thing of the past, traces of humiliation and an inferiority complex clearly still had their effects on the psychological nature of the Children of Israel, allowing traits of deviousness, cowardice and weakness to reveal themselves in their attitude.

So whenever we slump as an Ummah, or go through a weak phase, we must always remember that if we follow His guidance, then in the eyes of Allāh (subḥānahu wa taʿālā) we are the best of all nations. However, when one moves away from this guidance (an automatic reaction of a subjugated mindset) it is only then that we become truly subjugated. Those who are firm upon their values and Divine guidance are a people who must never forget the words of Allāh (subḥānahu wa taʿālā), the All-Powerful, when He says;

“So do not become weak, nor be sad, and you will be victorious if you are indeed true believers.” 3:139

May Allāh (subḥānahu wa taʿālā) grant us firmness and sincerity upon the path of truth. Ameen
