Mousaa and the Muslims with him, who were 600,000 left Egypt. Pharaoh and his army of one million and 600 thousand pursued them wanting to kill them but as mentioned in the Qur’aan, Allah granted safety to Mousaa and the believers with him.

▪️Allah revealed to Prophet Mousaa to strike the water with his staff; he did, and the sea split forming 12 pathways for Mousaa and the believers to walk on to the other side.

When Pharaoh and his army followed them, the water collapsed on them and they ended up drowning.

▪️As the Pharaoh was drowning and he was sure of death, he announced his repentance.

📌 But repentance is not accepted at that state because among the conditions of repentance is for it to take place before the state of hopelessness, when one knows that one is dying for sure; such as facing inevitable drowning, as happened to Pharaoh.
