In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

One of the Most Absurd Psychological Projections and Propaganda Methods of All Time, Engineered to Rewrite Reality

Allah, The Most High, said

وَقَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ ذَرُونِي أَقْتُلْ مُوسَىٰ وَلْيَدْعُ رَبَّهُ ۖ إِنِّي أَخَافُ أَن يُبَدِّلَ دِينَكُمْ أَوْ أَن يُظْهِرَ فِي الْأَرْضِ الْفَسَادَ

Fir’aun (Pharaoh) said: “Leave me to kill Musa (Moses), and let him call his Lord (to stop me from killing him)! I fear that he may change your religion, or that he may cause mischief to appear in the land!” [Ghafir 26]

 إِنِّي أَخَافُ أَنْ يُبَدِّلَ دِينَكُمْ

“I fear that he may change your religion” which you are following ;

  أَوْ أَنْ يُظْهِرَ فِي الْأَرْضِ الْفَسَادَ

“or he may cause mischief to appear in the land”.

Imam As-Sadi, may Allah have mercy upon him, said:

وهذا من أعجب ما يكون، أن يكون شر الخلق ينصح الناس عن اتباع خير الخلق هذا من التمويه والترويج الذي لا يدخل إلا عقل من قال الله فيهم

This is the most astonishing (i.e. in a negative way) situation imaginable, where the worst among creation advises the people against following the best of creation (in his time). This illustrates a degree of deception and propaganda that cannot enter except the minds of those about whom Allah said:

فَٱسْتَخَفَّ قَوْمَهُۥ فَأَطَاعُوهُ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَوْمًا فَٰسِقِينَ

Thus he [Fir’aun (Pharaoh)] befooled and misled his people, and they obeyed him. Verily, they were ever a people who were Fasiqun (rebellious, disobedient to Allah). [Az-Zukhruf 54]
