أَسْبَابَ السَّمَاوَاتِthat I may arrive at the ways -- the ways of the heavens,Sa`id bin Jubayr and Abu Salih said,"The gates of the heavens."Or it was said, the ways of the heavens.فَأَطَّلِعَ إِلَى إِلَهِ مُوسَى وَإِنِّي لَاأَظُنُّهُ كَاذِبًاand I may look upon the God of Musa, but verily, I think him to be a liar.Because of his disbelief and defiance, he did not believe that Allah had sent Musa to him.Allah says:وَكَذَلِكَ زُيِّنَ لِفِرْعَوْنَ سُوءُ عَمَلِهِ وَصُدَّ عَنِ السَّبِيلِThus it was made fair seeming, in Fir`awn's eyes, the evil of his deeds, and he was hindered from the path;means, this act of his (building the tower), by means of which he wanted to deceive his people and make them think that he could prove that Musa was lying.Allah says:وَمَا كَيْدُ فِرْعَوْنَ إِلاَّ فِي تَبَابٍand the plot of Fir`awn led to nothing but loss and destruction.Ibn Abbas and Mujahid said,"Meaning nothing but ruin.
