Commentary:
The magicians are not frightened by the threat of Pharaoh. On the contrary, they throw out a challenge to him saying, as it were: "If you crucify us, it will do us no harm; on the other hand, it will only make us return to our Lord all the more quickly and we will have the pleasure of meeting Him earlier." Just note the change that true faith had brought about in these hitherto worldly-minded men. A few moments before they talked of reward in the form of money and wealth, and now they were prepared to spurn all the pleasures of the world for the sake of God and were eager to meet Him as early as possible. Faith indeed is a great power and works wonders.

7:126; 20:73.
Important Words:
ضیر is infinitive noun from ضار (aor یضیر). They say ضارہ i.e. it (a thing) harmed, injured, hurt or damaged him. ھذا مما لا یضیرکmeans, this is of the things that will not harm thee. لاضیر علیک means, no harm shall befall thee (Lane).
Commentary:
Pharaoh’s threat of inflicting violent death upon the magicians leaves them unrepentant and unafraid. On the contrary, the words of the verse seem to imply on their part a challenge to Pharaoh to do his worst. They do not care a hang for his threats. The sooner they die, they appear to be saying, the quicker will they meet their Lord; and the more painful their death, the greater will be their reward in the Hereafter. Faith indeed works wonders. The erstwhile professional magicians, who, a few minutes ago, were prepared to resort to any trick and subterfuge for the sake of filthy lucre had come to acquire a faith that could move mountains and defy death.

The erstwhile professional sorcerers, who, only a few minutes ago, were prepared to resort to any trick and subterfuge for the sake of filthy lucre, had come to acquire a faith that would defy death.
وَإِنَّآ إِلَىٰ رَبِّنَا لَمُنقَلِبُونَ
Commentary:
In the preceding two verses we were told that God has made boats and ships so that we may use them for travel. In the present verse attention is drawn to the fact that man should not lose sight of the journey to his spiritual goal which is God Himself.
