                           The Prophet Musa (Moses)


                           Musa, peace be upon him, is a prophet to whom Allah frequently
                     refers in the Qur'an. Allah revealed to Musa the Torah. But today, the

                     Torah of the Jews and the Old Testament of the Christian Bible have lost
                     their original authenticity, since the words and interpolations of man have

                     been incorporated into them. But Jews and Christians today read these
                     distorted books assuming them to be

                     from the original book revealed by
                     Allah. The Jews have turned from the

                     right path because the book in which
                     they believe is no longer the revealed

                     book brought by the Prophet Musa,
                     peace be upon him.

                           We know everything about the life
                     and good character of Musa from the

                     Qur'an. As the Qur'an informs us, the
                     kings of ancient Egypt were called
                                                                    After Musa's death, some
                     "Pharaoh." The majority of the pharaohs        people with bad intentions
                     were very arrogant people who did not          changed the Torah. That is why
                                                                    the Torah and the Old
                     believe in Allah and who considered
                                                                    Testament people read today
                     themselves divine. Allah sent Musa to          are very different from the
                                                                    original book revealed to Musa,
                     one of the cruellest of these rulers.
                                                                    peace be upon him.
