English - Sahih International

And We inspired to Moses, "Throw your staff," and at once it devoured what they were falsifying.

Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

(7:117) Then We directed Moses: 'Now you throw your rod.' And lo! it swallowed up all their false devices. *90

Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi

*90). It would be a mistake to believe that the rod of Moses swallowed up the rods and ropes cast by the other sorcerers and which had looked like serpents. The Qur'anic statement means that the rod of Moses swallowed up the falsehood faked by them. This clearly shows that wherever Moses' rod moved, it destroyed the magical effect which had caused the transformation of their ropes and rods. One blow of Moses' rod caused every other rod to revert to a rod, and every rope to revert to a rope. (For further elaboration see Tafhim al-Qur'an, Ta Ha 20, n. 42)
