﴿ قَالَ كَلَّا ۖ فَٱذْهَبَا بِـَٔايَٰتِنَآ ۖ إِنَّا مَعَكُم مُّسْتَمِعُونَ ﴾

“Said He: “Not so, indeed! Go forth, then, both of you, with Our messages: verify, We shall be with you, listening [to your call]!”

Said He exalted be He ‘Certainly not! they shall not slay you. Go both of you you and your brother — this address although in the dual form is predominantly for the person present as opposed to the absent one — with Our signs. We will indeed be with you hearing what you say and what is said to you ma‘akum the two Moses and Aaron are referred to here with the plural pronoun.
