A Maccan sura of 88 verses. It tells the story of Moses and pharaoh. The story is told to the prophet Mohammed as an example of what happened to other messengers and their people. What I love about this story is the structure of storytelling. It’s simply amazing. The sura starts with the first 3 verses introduction, you will be narrated part of a story from a clear book. 1-4 the plot / summary of the sura is told in a few lines and the story starts. 4-6. Baby Moses and his mother 7-13. Then Moses at maturity 14-21 with incident in the city. He goes to the city of Madian gets married verses 22 -28 and after 10 years goes back to Egypt , on his way Moses stops near a mountain , God talks to Moses , 2 signs (snake and light in hand ) the signs to pharaoh and his people but they disbelieved. 29- 43. Then the narration is back to prophet Mohammed (verse 44) comparing both people with their message. Verse 56 (you cannot guide everyone you love to the truth; it is He who guides whoever He will: He knows best those who will follow guidance).Another character is used as an example : Qarun and his treasures verse 76-82. Even with all his wealth ( those who deny the truth will never prosper). The conclusion of this sura starts with ( the happy ending is awarded to those who are mindful of God) verse 83. And finally the last sentence of the sura is: His is the Judgment and to Him you shall be brought back. Wawoo. Subhan Allah. The lessons we have learned from the Quran, life coaching, mentored by God, how to structure arguments and use logic , we had examples; animals, science and nature, and here we learn creative writing and the structure of a story. May Allah guide us to the straight path and bless us all with knowledge wisdom and wealth. Ameen
