Page 83 - The Prophet Moses (pbuh)

Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar)

Until the 19th century, when hieroglyphic was finally decoded, the name of "Haman"
was unknown. With the decoding of hieroglyphic, it became clear that Haman was
an important assistant of Pharaoh and "the chief of stone quarry workers." (Above
are the construction workers of Egypt). What deserves mention here is that, accord-
ing to the Qur'anic account, Haman is the person who was in charge of construction
projects under the command of Pharaoh. That is, in the Qur’an Allah presented an
item of information which was otherwise impossible to know at that time.

Similarly, the verse conveying how Pharaoh asked Haman to build a tower is also in
compliance with evidence in this archaeological finding:
Pharaoh said, "Council, I do not know of any other god for you apart from me.
Haman, kindle a fire for me over the clay and build me a lofty tower so that
perhaps I may be able to climb up to Moses' God! I consider him a blatant liar."
(Surat al-Qasas: 38)
In conclusion, the existence of the name of Haman in the ancient Egyptian scrolls not
only rendered these fabricated claims totally unfounded, but also reinforced the fact that the
Qur'an is the infallible word of Allah. Miraculously, a piece of historical information which
had been otherwise impossible to attain or resolve during the time of the Prophet (May
Allah bless him and grant him peace) was revealed in the Qur’an.
