The answer

Allah revealed to Musa (peace be upon him) and sent him when he descended into the sacred valley of Tuwa, upon his return from Madyan to Egypt. Allah Almighty says: "And has the story of Moses reached you? When he saw a fire and said to his family, 'Stay here; indeed, I have perceived a fire; perhaps I can bring you from it a burning brand or find at the fire guidance.' And when he came to it, he was called, 'O Moses, indeed I am your Lord, so remove your sandals. Indeed, you are in the sacred valley of Tuwa. And I have chosen you, so listen to what is revealed [to you].'" As for the Children of Israel, they are the descendants of Isaac, son of Abraham (peace be upon them both), and they are not Arabs.
