Prophet Musa

The story continues, some time after Prophet Musahad completed his
contract with his father-in-law. He was traveling somewhere with his
family when he saw a fire in the distance. He went to explore in the
hope that he might get information or be able tobring back a firebrand
for his family to use.
When Prophet Musa approached the bush that was burning, he heard a
voice coming from it. The voice commanded Prophet Musa to remove his
shoesbecause he was in a sacred valley. The voice identified itself as
Allah, and reminded Prophet Musa to serve Him and to keep up his
prayers. The voice told Prophet Musa that Allah had made him one of
the chosen ones.
Allah then ordered Prophet Musa to throw down his staff, which he used
as a walking stick and to beat down branches for his flocks. When the
staff was flung down, it turned into a serpent. Allah instructed
Prophet Musa to pick the serpent up, and it again turned into a stick.
The voice commanded Prophet Musa to thrust his hand under his armpit,
and when he removed it the hand was glowing white, yet it did not hurt
Prophet Musa . Allah informed Prophet Musa that these two signs, the
staff and the hand, would be signs for the Pharoah, to show that
Prophet Musa had truly been sent from Allah. Allah wanted Prophet Musa
to go to the Pharoah because the Pharoah and his people had strayed
far from the acceptable ways of Allah. He also wanted Prophet Musa to
lead the children of Israel away from the Pharoah's influence.
Prophet Musa pointed out that he had killed an Egyptian and that he
himself would be killed ifhe returned to Egypt. He was also unsure of
his ability to communicate with the Pharoah. He wasnot a good speaker
and asked for the help of his brother, Harun , who wasmuch more
eloquent. Allah reassured Prophet Musa on both counts. He promised
that Prophet Musa would come to no harm at the hands of the Egyptians.
And He agreedboth to aid Prophet Musain addressing the Pharoah and to
send along Harun to help out.
In this manner Prophet Musa was called to prophethood, and set outto
free the people of Israel from their bondageunder the people of Egypt.
Insha Allah in the next issue we shall tell of his meetings with the
Pharoah.
You can read about this part of the story of Musain the Quran 20:9-36,
42-48; 26:10-17; and 28:29-35.
