Chapters 1-14 describe the conditions of oppression of the Jews under Pharaoh, the rise of Moses as their deliverer, the plagues God brought upon Egypt for the refusal of their leader to submit to Him, and the departure from Egypt. God’s sovereign and powerful hand is seen in the miracles of the plagues—ending with the plague of death of the firstborn and the institution of the first Passover—the deliverance of the Israelites, the parting of the Red Sea, and the destruction of the Egyptian army.
Sura 1-14 inaelezea hali ya ukandamizaji wa Wayahudi chini ya Farao, kuteuliwa kwa Musa kama mkombozi wao, mapigo ya Mungu yaliyoletwa juu ya Misri kwa kiongozi wao kukataa kujiwasilisha kwake, na kuondoka kutoka Misri. Huru na nguvu za mkono wa Mungu zinaonekana katika miujiza ya mapigo-kumalizia na pigo la vifo vya vifungua mimba na taasisi ya kwanza ya Pasaka-ukombozi waWaisraeli, kutawanyika kwa bahari ya Shamu na uharibifu wa jeshi la Misri.
