Assalamu Alaikum!
Walaikum As-salam Baba!
Are you ready for today's story?
Yes!
That's great!
Inshallah, I'm goint to tell you the story of Prophet Musa(as) today!
Who was he Baba?
Prophet Musa (as) is considered a Prophet,
Messenger, and a Leader in Islam.
He is the most frequently mention individual in the Quran.
The Quran states that the Prophet was sent by God to the Pharaoh of Egypt
and the Israelites for guidance and warning
Wow! Please tell me the story!
Alright, now listen carefully
Bismillah!
The Story of Prophet Musa (as)
Prophet Musa (as) grew up as a Prince!
The Pharaoh's who ruled over Egypt
were very cruel towards the descendants of Yaqub (as).
The descendants were known as the children of Israel.
They were kept as slaves and forced to work for small wages,
and sometimes even for nothing!
The Pharaoh wanted the Israelites to obey only him,
and worship only his Gods!
This way many dynasties came to Egypt, and they assumed that they were Gods,
or their representative spokesmen.
Years passed, and a very cruel man named Phir'oun was the Pharaoh now.
He hated the Israelites very much.
He punished the Israelites at every given opportunity.
He hated to see them multiplying and prospering in his kingdom.
One night when the Pharaoh was sleeping, he had a dream!
In his dream, he saw that a huge ball of fire came from the sky,
and burned down the city.
The fire burned the houses of all Egyptians,
but the houses of Israelites stayed unharmed!
The Pharaoh was horrified!
He didn't understand what the dream meant,
so the next day…
he called his priests and magicians.
He asked them about the dream he had.
The priests said to him
"This means that a boy will be born to the Israelites very soon.
Egyptians are going to perish at the hands of this boy!"
The Pharaoh got very angry!
He ordered to kill every male child born to the Israelites!
Pharaoh's order was carried out,
and the soldiers began to kill every male child born to the Israelites!
It was during at that time that Prophet Musa (as) was born.
The Prophet was born to a poor] Israelite family,
and he had an elder brother named Haroon (as),
and another sister.
Allah (swt) had a plan for the Prophet.
He ordered his mother to place him in a basket,
and allow it to float downstream in the great Nile river!
Musa (as)'s mother did as she was told, and as she let him
float in the river.
Her heart grieved for her son!
However, she was aware that Allah(swt) cared for her son,
and she knew that no harm will come to him.
As the basket floated away,
she asked her daughter to follow the basket downstream,
and make sure that no harm came to her son.
The basket floated in the river for a long time,
and the Prophet's sister followed the basket as her mother had instructed.
Allah(swt) was guiding the basket,
and after floating on river Nile for sometime,
the basket entered a small stream
The Pharaoh's wife was bathing in that stream,
and when she saw the basket,
she asked her servants to bring it ashore.
When she saw the baby,
she just fell in love with him.
Pharaoh's wife was very different from the Pharaoh.
She was a believer,
and she was also merciful.
She was longing for a child,
so when she saw the baby,
she hugged and kissed him.
Pharaoh was surprised when he saw his wife hugging and kissing the baby.
He was astonished as he saw her weeping with joy, which he had never seen before!
"Let me keep this baby, and let him be a son to us"
she requested her husband.
The Pharaoh couldn't refuse her,
and they decided to adopt the baby.
After sometime, the baby started getting hungry
and he started crying
The queen summoned a few wet nurses to feed the baby,
but he refused to take any of their breast milk.
It was then that the soldiers brought the sister to the queen
"This girl was following the basket" they told her
Then the sister replied
"I was just following the basket out of curiosity, your highness"
When she saw her brother crying,
she was worried and she blurted out
"I know someone who can feed him"
The queen agreed, and she ordered the soldiers to fetch the woman,
that the little girl was talking about.
The prophet's sister then brought their mother,
and she started to feed him.
As the child was put to her breast,
he immediately started suckling the milk.
The Pharaoh, who was watching all this, was astonished,
and asked "Who are you?
This child has refused to take any other breast, but yours?"
The mother of the Prophet knew that if she told them the truth,
they would kill them immediately.
So she told them "I am a woman of sweet milk, and sweet smell.
That's why no child refuses me"
Her answer satisfied the Pharaoh,
and she was appointed as his nurse.
Musa (as) grew up in the palace as a prince.
Allah(swt) granted him good health, strength, knowledge and wisdom!
He had a kind heart, so the weak and the oppressed often turned to him seeking help
One day, while he was walking in the city,
he saw an Egyptian soldier beating an Israelite.
When the Israelite saw the Prophet,
he begged him for his help.
The Prophet decided to help the poor man,
and asked the soldier to stop beating the Israelite.
The soldier questioned his authority,
and said something that really angered the Prophet.
The Prophet first tried to reason with the soldier,
but he was not willing to listen.
Then the Prophet stepped forward and hit the soldier with such a powerful blow,
that he collapsed and died!
When he realized what he had done,
a cold sweat broke out from his forehead
He said to himself
"This is the evil work of Shaitan.
He misled me"
The Prophet knew that it was a sin to kill anyone
until he is brought to trial and found guilty.
He knelt on the ground and prayed to Allah(swt)
"O my Lord! I I have indeed wronged my soul.
Please forgive me"
The next day he saw the same Israelite fighting with another man.
The Prophet helped the weaker one, and said
"You seem to be involved in fights everyday with one or the other"
The Israelite got scared and said
"I'm so sorry.
Please don't kill me like how your killed the soldier yesterday"
The Egyptian with whom the Israelite was fighting, overheard the remarks,
and he reported this to the authorities.
The next day, when Musa (as) was walking in the city,
a man came running to him
"Musa! The soldiers are coming to arrest you!
Get away while there is still time!" said the man
The Prophet knew that the penalty for killing an Egyptian was death.
So he decided to leave Egypt.
The Prophet left Egypt in a hurry,
so he didn't even bother to change his clothes.
He was not prepared for travelling ,
so he didn't have an animal to ride,
nor did he have a caravan.
He had left as soon as the man warned him
Mashallah! That was such a wonderful story!
I'm glad you like it my son!
Yes, I am!
Alright. Now tell me why did the Pharaoh
order to kill every male child born to the Israelites?
Hmm.. He did so because his priests warned him.
They told him that a child would be born to the Israelites,
and that all Egyptians would perish at the hands of the boy!
Mashallah! That was right
Now tell me how the Prophet's mother saved him?
Allah(swt) commanded her to place her baby in a basket,
and let the basket float on river nile!
And can you tell me who found the basket
The Queen found the basket, and she adopted the boy as her son!
That's great! Now tell me why the Prophet had to leave Egypt
The Prophet while trying to save an Israelite,
killed an Egyptian soldier.
When the authorities came to arrest him, the Prophet left the country
That was brilliant!!
Now that's all for today, I will tell you another story tomorrow
Good night my son!
