Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
Fir`awn's People say that Musa is a Magician!The chiefs and noblemen of the people of Fir`awn agreed with Fir`awn's statement about Musa. After Fir`awn felt safe and returned to his throne, he said to the chiefs of his people, إِنَّ هَـذَا لَسَـحِرٌ عَلِيمٌ(This is indeed a well-versed sorcerer) and they agreed. They held counsel to decide what they should do about Musa. They conspired to extinguish the light that he brought and bring down his word.
