Moosa Nabi, also known as Moses in Judeo-Christian traditions, is a prominent prophet in Islam, Christianity, and Judaism. Here's a brief overview of his history according to Islamic tradition:
Early Life Birth and Early Years:
Moosa (Moses) was born in Egypt during a time when the Pharaoh had ordered that all newborn Israelite boys be killed. His mother placed him in a basket and set it afloat on the Nile River to save him. The basket was found by the Pharaoh's wife, who decided to adopt him.
Growing Up in Pharaoh’s Palace:
Call to Prophet hood The Burning Bush:
As an adult, Moses fled Egypt after killing an Egyptian who was beating an Israelite. He went to Midian, where he married and became a shepherd. One day, while tending his flock, he saw a burning bush from which God spoke to him, commanding him to return to Egypt and free the Israelites from slavery.
The Exodus Confrontation with Pharaoh:
Moses returned to Egypt with his brother Aaron to confront the Pharaoh. Despite performing various miracles (like turning his staff into a serpent and turning water into blood), Pharaoh refused to free the Israelites.
The Ten Plagues:
God sent ten plagues upon Egypt, culminating in the death of the firstborn sons. After this final plague, Pharaoh relented and allowed the Israelites to leave.Parting of the Red Sea: Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt, and when Pharaoh’s army pursued them, God parted the Red Sea, allowing the Israelites to cross on dry ground. The sea then closed, drowning the pursuing Egyptian forces.
