And We caused the people who had been oppressed to inherit the eastern regions of the land and the western ones, which We had blessed. And the good word of your Lord was fulfilled for the Children of Israel because of what they had patiently endured. And We destroyed [all] that Pharaoh and his people were producing and what they had been building.

اور اُن کی جگہ ہم نے اُن لوگوں کو جو کمزور بنا کر رکھے گئے تھے، اُس سرزمین کے مشرق و مغرب کا وارث بنا دیا جسے ہم نے برکتوں سے مالا مال کیا تھا اس طرح بنی اسرائیل کے حق میں تیرے رب کا وعدہ خیر پورا ہوا کیونکہ اُنہوں نے صبر سے کام لیا تھا اور فرعون اور اس کی قوم کا وہ سب کچھ برباد کر دیا گیا جو وہ بناتے اور چڑھاتے تھے

Dan Kami pusakakan kepada kaum yang telah ditindas itu, negeri-negeri bahagian timur bumi dan bahagian baratnya yang telah Kami beri berkah padanya. Dan telah sempurnalah perkataan Tuhanmu yang baik (sebagai janji) untuk Bani Israil disebabkan kesabaran mereka. Dan Kami hancurkan apa yang telah dibuat Fir'aun dan kaumnya dan apa yang telah dibangun mereka.
Ibn Kathir
The People of Fir`awn drown in the Sea; the Children of Israel inherit the Holy Land
Allah states that when the people of Fir`awn rebelled and transgressed, even though He inflicted them with consecutive signs, one after another, He took retribution from them by drowning them in the sea that Musa parted by Allah's power, and he and the Children of Israel passed through. In their pursuit, Fir`awn and his soldiers went in the sea chasing Musa and his people. When they all had gone inside the water, the sea closed in on them and they all drowned, because they belied the Ayat of Allah and were heedless of them. Allah said that He has granted the people who were considered weak, the Children of Israel, to inherit the eastern and western parts of the land. Al-Hasan Al-Basri and Qatadah commented that Allah's statement,
مَشَـرِقَ الاٌّرْضِ وَمَغَـرِبَهَا الَّتِى بَارَكْنَا فِيهَا
(...the eastern parts of the land and the western parts thereof which We have blessed.) refers to the Sham area (Greater Syria). Also, Mujahid and Ibn Jarir said that Allah's statement,
وَتَمَّتْ كَلِمَتُ رَبِّكَ الْحُسْنَى عَلَى بَنِى إِسْرءِيلَ بِمَا صَبَرُواْ
(And the fair Word of your Lord was fulfilled for the Children of Israel, because of their endurance.) is explained by Allah's other statement,
وَنُرِيدُ أَن نَّمُنَّ عَلَى الَّذِينَ اسْتُضْعِفُواْ فِى الاٌّرْضِ وَنَجْعَلَهُمْ أَئِمَّةً وَنَجْعَلَهُمُ الْوَارِثِينَ - وَنُمَكِّنَ لَهُمْ فِى الاٌّرْضِ وَنُرِىَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَهَـمَـنَ وَجُنُودَهُمَا مِنْهُمْ مَّا كَانُواْ يَحْذَرونَ
(And We wished to do a favor to those who were weak (and oppressed) in the land, and to make them rulers and to make them the inheritors. And to establish them in the land, and We let Fir`awn and Haman and their hosts receive from them that which they feared) 28:5-6. Further, Allah's statement,
وَدَمَّرْنَا مَا كَانَ يَصْنَعُ فِرْعَوْنُ وَقَوْمُهُ
(And We destroyed what Fir`awn and his people produced,) meaning, We destroyed what Fir`awn and his people produced, such as agriculture and buildings.
وَمَا كَانُواْ يَعْرِشُونَ
(and what they erected.) Ibn `Abbas and Mujahid said that
يَعْرِشُونَ
(they erected) means, they built.
المُيَسَّر
وأررثنا بني إسرائيل الذين كانوا يُستَذَلُّون للخدمة، مشارق الأرض ومغاربها (وهي بلاد "الشام") التي باركنا فيها، بإخراج الزروع والثمار والأنهار، وتمت كلمة ربك -أيها الرسول- الحسنى على بني إسرائيل بالتمكين لهم في الأرض؛ بسبب صبرهم على أذى فرعون وقومه، ودمَّرنا ما كان يصنع فرعون وقومه من العمارات والمزارع، وما كانوا يبنون من الأبنية والقصور وغير ذلك.
