Prophet Musa (Peace Be Upon Him) and Pharaoh

Prophet Musa (Peace Be Upon Him) and Pharaoh is a powerful Islamic children’s book that introduces young readers to the courage, faith, and trust in Allah shown by Prophet Musa (Peace Be Upon Him).At a time when Pharaoh ruled Egypt with great cruelty and treated the Children of Israel harshly, Allah commanded Prophet Musa (Peace Be Upon Him) to deliver His message. Together with his brother, Prophet Harun (Peace Be Upon Him), he went to Pharaoh and called him to worship Allah alone.Pharaoh refused to believe and demanded a sign. Prophet Musa (Peace Be Upon Him) threw down his staff, and by Allah’s command it became a snake. Even after seeing this miracle, Pharaoh rejected the truth and called him a magician. He gathered the greatest magicians of Egypt to challenge Prophet Musa (Peace Be Upon Him), but when his staff became a huge serpent and swallowed what they had produced, the magicians recognized the truth and believed in Allah.Still, Pharaoh remained stubborn and continued his cruelty. Allah then commanded Prophet Musa (Peace Be Upon Him) to leave Egypt with his people. Pharaoh and his army pursued them until Prophet Musa (Peace Be Upon Him) reached the sea, with danger behind him and the water ahead.By Allah’s command, Prophet Musa (Peace Be Upon Him) struck the water with his staff, and a path opened through the sea. He and his people crossed safely. When Pharaoh and his army followed, the waves closed over them and they drowned.Written in clear, child-friendly language, Prophet Musa (Peace Be Upon Him) and Pharaoh introduces children to an important Qur’anic account while teaching them about faith, courage, obedience to Allah, standing against oppression, and trusting Allah in times of danger.A meaningful addition to Islamic home libraries, Qur’an learning, Islamic schools, and faith-based reading for children.
