Why is the story of Musa (Moses), peace be upon him, repeated in the Holy Quran?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The repetition of the story of Musa (peace be upon him) with Pharaoh in the Holy Quran is due to several reasons, among them: it represents the peak of contrast between truth and falsehood. Pharaoh was at the height of disbelief, while Musa was at the peak of faith, and Allah spoke directly to him. Furthermore, there is a great congruence between the Sharia of Musa and the Sharia of our Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and between their respective books, which makes the story of Musa a source of solace and steadfastness for the Messenger Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).
