Stories of the Prophets

Musa

موسى عليه السلام

Musa is the most named prophet in the Quran. The basket on the river. The palace. The man he struck. The fire in the valley of Tuwa. The staff. Pharaoh. The sea. The Torah. The appointment of forty nights. The calf. Khidr. All of that is Quran.

The Prophet met Musa on the Isra. Musa advised him to ask for a lightening of the prayer, from fifty to five. That is in Bukhari and Muslim. Musa is also the one who will say on the Last Day: I am not fit for intercession, because I killed a soul not commanded.

From the Quran

From the Sunnah

Pharaoh drowned. The Quran does not make him a secret believer at the last breath in a way that cancels the warning. Read 10:90–92 as it is.
