Pharaoh used to torture them, kill their children, rape their women, and enslave them in the worst conditions. The believers among them kept praying to their God day and night to relieve from this torture and bondage, and liberate them from slavery, and send to them a messenger, leader, and deliverer to lead them out of this torture.
