A Comparative Analysis of the Quranic and Biblical Narratives of the Migration of Prophet Musa (AS) to Madyan
Abstract
The present paper explores two different versions of an important
event from the life of prophet Musa Alaihe Salam(AS).The under study
event is related to the migration of Prophet Musa (AS) from Egypt to
Madyan which took place when the Prophet was in his youth and before the
conferment of his Prophet hood .The study gives a comparative analysis of
the two holy books (i.e. the Noble Quran and the Bible).The qualitative
textual analysis of the two versions shows that there is a great deal of
difference found in the two books. The findings show that the major events
have been contextualized differently mainly because of the approach
towards the killing of a man by the Prophet Musa (AS) as Quran consider it
killing unintentionally while the Bible regards it as killing intentionally.
Finally, the Quranic version of the narratives seems more logical than the
Biblical one.
