Darul Qasim Sunday Tafseer

28:43-49. Allah's Rahmah is ubiquitous, but it takes a discerning eye to recognize instances of it. In this lecture: the story of Musa (AS) as a backdrop to the mission of Muhammad (S); guidance as a consequence of correct observation; story-telling as an effective tool of the oral tradition; time-shift into the story of Shu'aib (AS), contrasting the economically-challenged Madyan that Musa encountered with its past glory; the daunting mission of Musa (AS) as a source of comfort for the last Messenger. Prophets are highly intellectual human beings and their intelligence was further enhanced by prophethood.
