21. The name of this Pharoah was Waleed bin Musib. His appellation was Abul Abbas and he lived for four hundred and sixty years (Tafseer Roohul Ma'ani). There are many other statements regarding his name and age as well.

22. Although Hazrat Moosa and Hazrat Haroon (On them be peace) were both Prophets, but because Hazrat Haroon (On whom be peace) was his minister, the singular form of the noun is used.
Hearing this, Hazrat Moosa (On whom be peace) left for Egypt. At that time he was wearing a cloak of expensive woolen cloth, he had a walking stick in his blessed hand, and on the edge of the stick was a bag in which were things needed for the journey.
Firstly he went to Hazrat Haroon (On whom be peace) and informed him about his prophethood and gave him glad tidings that he had been bestowed with prophethood. He asked him to accompany him to the Pharoah.
His beloved mother became frightened on hearing this and said that the Pharoah is searching for him to have him killed, but Hazrat Moosa (On whom be peace) did not stop. In the morning he came to Pharoah's court and delivered the message of Allah Almighty.
