Ayat 22.
"And press your (right) hand to your (left) side, it will come forth white
(and shining), without any disease as another sign,
Ayat 23. "That We may show
you (some) of Our Greater Signs.
Ayat 24. "Go to Firaun (Pharaoh)!
Verily, he has transgressed (all bounds in disbelief and disobedience, and has
behaved as an arrogant, and as a tyrant)."
[Tafseer]
"Now draw thy hand close to
thy side: It shall come forth white (and shining), without harm (or stain),- as
another Sign,- The second of the greater Miracles shown to Moses was the
"White (shining) Hand". Ordinarily, when the skin becomes white, it is a sign of
disease, leprosy or something loathsome. Here there was no question of disease:
on the contrary, the hand was glorified, and it shone as with a divine light.
Such a miracle was beyond Egyptian or human magic "In order that We may show thee
(two) of our Greater Signs. "Go thou to Pharaoh, for he has indeed transgressed all
bounds." Moses, having been spiritually prepared now gets
his definite commission to go to Pharaoh and point out the error of his ways. So
inordinate was Pharaoh's vanity that he had it in his mind to say: "I am your
Lord Most High!"
(79:24).
Hazrat Abu Sa`id
Al-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah 
[SAWW](PBUH) said, "The best type of Jihad (striving in the way of Allah) is
speaking a true word in the presence of a tyrant ruler.''
[Abu Dawud Hadith #
4344 and At-Tirmidhi Hadith # 2174].
Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Taha Ayat
24.""Go to Firaun (Pharaoh)! Verily, he has transgressed (all bounds in
disbelief and disobedience, and has behaved as an arrogant, and as a
tyrant)." Jihad has many degrees. Preaching of virtue
is also Jihad. The most meritorious of all is the effort of communicating the
Message of Allah to an unjust ruler. Similarly, if a society is so much given to
a vice that no one can dare to utter a word against it, then to protest against
it can also be reckoned as the best Jihad.
