    يَسۡـَٔلُكَ أَهۡلُ ٱلۡكِتَٰبِ أَن تُنَزِّلَ عَلَيۡهِمۡ كِتَٰبٗا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِۚ فَقَدۡ سَأَلُواْ مُوسَىٰٓ أَكۡبَرَ مِن ذَٰلِكَ فَقَالُوٓاْ أَرِنَا ٱللَّهَ جَهۡرَةٗ فَأَخَذَتۡهُمُ ٱلصَّـٰعِقَةُ بِظُلۡمِهِمۡۚ ثُمَّ ٱتَّخَذُواْ ٱلۡعِجۡلَ مِنۢ بَعۡدِ مَا جَآءَتۡهُمُ ٱلۡبَيِّنَٰتُ فَعَفَوۡنَا عَن ذَٰلِكَۚ وَءَاتَيۡنَا مُوسَىٰ سُلۡطَٰنٗا مُّبِينٗا

    153.(O Beloved Prophet Muhammad) The people of the Book ask you to reveal to them [439] another book from the heaven. But, they had asked Musa (even) a greater thing than this and said: "Show us Allah openly." Then the thunderbolt overtook them for their wrongdoing [440]. Then they took to the worship of the calf after clear signs [441] had come to them. But We pardoned [442] even that and gave Musa clear dominance [443].

    Surah Name : An-Nisa   Surah Number : 4   Ayat Number: 153

    وَرُسُلٗا قَدۡ قَصَصۡنَٰهُمۡ عَلَيۡكَ مِن قَبۡلُ وَرُسُلٗا لَّمۡ نَقۡصُصۡهُمۡ عَلَيۡكَۚ وَكَلَّمَ ٱللَّهُ مُوسَىٰ تَكۡلِيمٗا

    164. And to the Messengers whom We have already mentioned [469] to you before, and to those Messengers whom We have not mentioned to you. And Allah, in fact, spoke to Musa [470].

    Surah Name : An-Nisa   Surah Number : 4   Ayat Number: 164

    وَإِذۡ وَٰعَدۡنَا مُوسَىٰٓ أَرۡبَعِينَ لَيۡلَةٗ ثُمَّ ٱتَّخَذۡتُمُ ٱلۡعِجۡلَ مِنۢ بَعۡدِهِۦ وَأَنتُمۡ ظَٰلِمُونَ

    51. And (recall) when We made a promise [95] of forty nights with Musa (for communion), then you (Israelites) took the calf in worship (in his absence). And you were wrongdoers [96].

    Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 51

    وَإِذۡ ءَاتَيۡنَا مُوسَى ٱلۡكِتَٰبَ وَٱلۡفُرۡقَانَ لَعَلَّكُمۡ تَهۡتَدُونَ

    53.And when We gave Musa the Book and the Criterion [97] so that you might be guided.

    Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 53

    وَإِذۡ قَالَ مُوسَىٰ لِقَوۡمِهِۦ يَٰقَوۡمِ إِنَّكُمۡ ظَلَمۡتُمۡ أَنفُسَكُم بِٱتِّخَاذِكُمُ ٱلۡعِجۡلَ فَتُوبُوٓاْ إِلَىٰ بَارِئِكُمۡ فَٱقۡتُلُوٓاْ أَنفُسَكُمۡ ذَٰلِكُمۡ خَيۡرٞ لَّكُمۡ عِندَ بَارِئِكُمۡ فَتَابَ عَلَيۡكُمۡۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلتَّوَّابُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ

    54. And (recall) when Musa said to his people: "O my people! Indeed, you have wronged yourselves by taking the calf for worship. So, repent to your Creator and kill yourselves [99] (the guilty among you). That is best for you in the sight of your Creator." Then He accepted your repentance. Surely, He is the Most-Relenting, the Merciful.

    Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 54

    وَإِذۡ قُلۡتُمۡ يَٰمُوسَىٰ لَن نُّؤۡمِنَ لَكَ حَتَّىٰ نَرَى ٱللَّهَ جَهۡرَةٗ فَأَخَذَتۡكُمُ ٱلصَّـٰعِقَةُ وَأَنتُمۡ تَنظُرُونَ

    55. And (recall) when you said: "O Musa! We will never believe you until we see Allah manifestly." Thereupon, the thunderbolt struck you while you were looking on [100].

    Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 55

    ۞وَإِذِ ٱسۡتَسۡقَىٰ مُوسَىٰ لِقَوۡمِهِۦ فَقُلۡنَا ٱضۡرِب بِّعَصَاكَ ٱلۡحَجَرَۖ فَٱنفَجَرَتۡ مِنۡهُ ٱثۡنَتَا عَشۡرَةَ عَيۡنٗاۖ قَدۡ عَلِمَ كُلُّ أُنَاسٖ مَّشۡرَبَهُمۡۖ كُلُواْ وَٱشۡرَبُواْ مِن رِّزۡقِ ٱللَّهِ وَلَا تَعۡثَوۡاْ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ مُفۡسِدِينَ

    60.And recall when Musa prayed for water for his people, then We said: "Strike the stone with your staff." At once, there gushed forth from it twelve [108] springs. And every group (tribe) knew its drinking place. Eat and drink from the provisions of Allah and do not go about corrupting the earth with mischief [109].

    Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 60

    وَإِذۡ قُلۡتُمۡ يَٰمُوسَىٰ لَن نَّصۡبِرَ عَلَىٰ طَعَامٖ وَٰحِدٖ فَٱدۡعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ يُخۡرِجۡ لَنَا مِمَّا تُنۢبِتُ ٱلۡأَرۡضُ مِنۢ بَقۡلِهَا وَقِثَّآئِهَا وَفُومِهَا وَعَدَسِهَا وَبَصَلِهَاۖ قَالَ أَتَسۡتَبۡدِلُونَ ٱلَّذِي هُوَ أَدۡنَىٰ بِٱلَّذِي هُوَ خَيۡرٌۚ ٱهۡبِطُواْ مِصۡرٗا فَإِنَّ لَكُم مَّا سَأَلۡتُمۡۗ وَضُرِبَتۡ عَلَيۡهِمُ ٱلذِّلَّةُ وَٱلۡمَسۡكَنَةُ وَبَآءُو بِغَضَبٖ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِۚ ذَٰلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمۡ كَانُواْ يَكۡفُرُونَ بِـَٔايَٰتِ ٱللَّهِ وَيَقۡتُلُونَ ٱلنَّبِيِّـۧنَ بِغَيۡرِ ٱلۡحَقِّۚ ذَٰلِكَ بِمَا عَصَواْ وَّكَانُواْ يَعۡتَدُونَ

    61. And recall when you said, O Musa! [110] We can never be satisfied [111] with one kind of food. So call upon your Lord to bring forth for us some of the varied produce of the earth, such as its vegetables, cucumbers, wheat, lentils, and onions. He (Musa) said: "Would you exchange what is better for what is less? Go back to Egypt any town, and there you will find all that you asked for." And they were covered with humiliation and poverty and incurred the Wrath of Allah because they repeatedly disbelieved in the Signs of Allah and killed the Prophets unjustly. [114] This was because they were disobedient and habitually exceeding the limits.

    Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 61

    وَإِذۡ قَالَ مُوسَىٰ لِقَوۡمِهِۦٓ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَأۡمُرُكُمۡ أَن تَذۡبَحُواْ بَقَرَةٗۖ قَالُوٓاْ أَتَتَّخِذُنَا هُزُوٗاۖ قَالَ أَعُوذُ بِٱللَّهِ أَنۡ أَكُونَ مِنَ ٱلۡجَٰهِلِينَ

    67.And recall when Musa [123] said to his people: "Indeed, Allah commands you to slaughter a cow." [124] They said: "Do you make a laughing stock of us?" [125] He said: "I seek refuge in Allah from being among the ignorant."

    Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 67

    ۞وَلَقَدۡ جَآءَكُم مُّوسَىٰ بِٱلۡبَيِّنَٰتِ ثُمَّ ٱتَّخَذۡتُمُ ٱلۡعِجۡلَ مِنۢ بَعۡدِهِۦ وَأَنتُمۡ ظَٰلِمُونَ

    92.And surely Musa came to you with clear proofs. Then you took the calf (in worship) [175] after him, while you were indeed unjust. [176]

    Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 92

    أَمۡ تُرِيدُونَ أَن تَسۡـَٔلُواْ رَسُولَكُمۡ كَمَا سُئِلَ مُوسَىٰ مِن قَبۡلُۗ وَمَن يَتَبَدَّلِ ٱلۡكُفۡرَ بِٱلۡإِيمَٰنِ فَقَدۡ ضَلَّ سَوَآءَ ٱلسَّبِيلِ

    108. Would you seek to question your Rasool (Muhammad) as Musa was questioned before? [213] And whoever exchanges faith for infidelity has certainly strayed from the Straight Path. [214]

    Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 108

    قُولُوٓاْ ءَامَنَّا بِٱللَّهِ وَمَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَيۡنَا وَمَآ أُنزِلَ إِلَىٰٓ إِبۡرَٰهِـۧمَ وَإِسۡمَٰعِيلَ وَإِسۡحَٰقَ وَيَعۡقُوبَ وَٱلۡأَسۡبَاطِ وَمَآ أُوتِيَ مُوسَىٰ وَعِيسَىٰ وَمَآ أُوتِيَ ٱلنَّبِيُّونَ مِن رَّبِّهِمۡ لَا نُفَرِّقُ بَيۡنَ أَحَدٖ مِّنۡهُمۡ وَنَحۡنُ لَهُۥ مُسۡلِمُونَ

    136.Say (O Muslims): "We believe in Allah and what has been revealed to us, and what was revealed to Ibrahim, Ismail, Ishaaq [271], Yaqub, and the descendants [272], and what was granted to Musa and Isa, and what was given to the other Prophets [273] from their Lord. We make no distinction in faith [274] between any of them, and we have submitted to Him."

    Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 136

    أَلَمۡ تَرَ إِلَى ٱلۡمَلَإِ مِنۢ بَنِيٓ إِسۡرَـٰٓءِيلَ مِنۢ بَعۡدِ مُوسَىٰٓ إِذۡ قَالُواْ لِنَبِيّٖ لَّهُمُ ٱبۡعَثۡ لَنَا مَلِكٗا نُّقَٰتِلۡ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِۖ قَالَ هَلۡ عَسَيۡتُمۡ إِن كُتِبَ عَلَيۡكُمُ ٱلۡقِتَالُ أَلَّا تُقَٰتِلُواْۖ قَالُواْ وَمَا لَنَآ أَلَّا نُقَٰتِلَ فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَقَدۡ أُخۡرِجۡنَا مِن دِيَٰرِنَا وَأَبۡنَآئِنَاۖ فَلَمَّا كُتِبَ عَلَيۡهِمُ ٱلۡقِتَالُ تَوَلَّوۡاْ إِلَّا قَلِيلٗا مِّنۡهُمۡۚ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمُۢ بِٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ

    246. (O Beloved Prophet) Did you not observe the group of the Children of Israel after Musa? When they said to a Prophet of theirs: "Appoint for us a king so that we may fight in the way of Allah." He said: "Perhaps if fighting is prescribed for you, you will not fight." They replied: "What is the matter with us that we should not fight in the way of Allah, while we have been driven out of our homes and our children?" But when fighting was prescribed for them, they turned away, except for a few of them. And Allah is All-Knowing of the unjust.

    Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 246

    وَقَالَ لَهُمۡ نَبِيُّهُمۡ إِنَّ ءَايَةَ مُلۡكِهِۦٓ أَن يَأۡتِيَكُمُ ٱلتَّابُوتُ فِيهِ سَكِينَةٞ مِّن رَّبِّكُمۡ وَبَقِيَّةٞ مِّمَّا تَرَكَ ءَالُ مُوسَىٰ وَءَالُ هَٰرُونَ تَحۡمِلُهُ ٱلۡمَلَـٰٓئِكَةُۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَأٓيَةٗ لَّكُمۡ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤۡمِنِينَ

    248. And the Prophet said to them: "Surely, the sign of his kingship is that there would come to you an Ark (of the Covenant) [621] in which there is tranquillity of your heart from your Lord, and the good legacy left by the family of Musa and the family of Harun [622], carried by the angels. Surely, in that is a sign for you if you believe [623]."

    Surah Name : Al-Baqarah   Surah Number : 2   Ayat Number: 248

    وَإِذۡ قَالَ مُوسَىٰ لِفَتَىٰهُ لَآ أَبۡرَحُ حَتَّىٰٓ أَبۡلُغَ مَجۡمَعَ ٱلۡبَحۡرَيۡنِ أَوۡ أَمۡضِيَ حُقُبٗا

    60 And recall when Musa [Moses] [142] said to his servant [143], "I shall not desist until I reach the meeting point of the two seas [144], or I will continue for ages [145]."

    Surah Name : Al-Kahf   Surah Number : 18   Ayat Number: 60

    فَلَمَّا جَاوَزَا قَالَ لِفَتَىٰهُ ءَاتِنَا غَدَآءَنَا لَقَدۡ لَقِينَا مِن سَفَرِنَا هَٰذَا نَصَبٗا

    62. Then when they had passed beyond that place, Musa said to his servant, "Bring us our meal; we have certainly met with fatigue from this journey." [148]

    Surah Name : Al-Kahf   Surah Number : 18   Ayat Number: 62

    قَالَ ذَٰلِكَ مَا كُنَّا نَبۡغِۚ فَٱرۡتَدَّا عَلَىٰٓ ءَاثَارِهِمَا قَصَصٗا

    64. Musa said, “That is what we were seeking [150].” So they retraced their steps, following their tracks.
