Each verse in fact, each letter is miraculously endowed with precision of meaning succinctness of message and purity of sound. The life lessons that can be taken from any chapter in the Quran are amazing, but chapter number 20, in particular is unique in this regard. The 20th chapter of the Quran chronicles the life of Prophet Moses. commentators have pointed out that apart from the following verses, which are short references to Prophet Moses appearing in the earlier chapters of the Quran, they are chapter number 53, verse 36, and chapter

Allah said, You have been granted your request, oh, Moses.

00:08:30--> 00:08:33

And we had already conferred favor upon you another time.

00:08:43--> 00:08:46

When we inspired to your mother what we inspired.

00:08:57--> 00:08:58

And we favored you when your sister went and said, shall I direct you to someone who will be responsible for him? So we restored you to your mother that she might be content and not grieve.

00:10:21--> 00:10:27

And you killed someone. But we saved you from retaliation and tried you with a severe trial.

00:10:28--> 00:10:31

And you remained some years among the people of madeon.

00:10:32--> 00:10:35

Then you came here at the decreed time, oh, Moses,

00:10:36--> 00:10:42

was flown out to Catalina sea, and I produced you for myself

00:10:47--> 00:10:47

00:11:04--> 00:11:09

Go both of you to Pharaoh, indeed, he has transgressed.

00:11:18--> 00:11:25

And speak to him with gentle speech that perhaps he may be reminded or fear Allah ball.

00:11:38--> 00:11:45

They said, Our Lord, indeed we are afraid that he will hasten punishment against us, or that he will transgress.

00:11:56--> 00:11:57

Hello said,

00:11:58--> 00:12:02

Indeed, I am with you both. I hear and I see.

00:12:08--> 00:12:10

think was

money.

00:12:29--> 00:12:47

So go to him and say, indeed, we are messengers of your Lord, so sent with us the children of Israel and do not torment them. We have come to you with a sign from your Lord, and peace will be upon him who follows the guidance in

00:12:58--> 00:13:04

indeed, it has been revealed to us that the punishment will be upon whoever denies and turns away.

00:13:05--> 00:13:06

All.

00:13:10--> 00:13:16

Pharaoh said, so who is the Lord of YouTube? Oh, Moses, on Oh.

00:13:25--> 00:13:30

He said, Our Lord is He who gave each thing its form and then guided it

00:13:31--> 00:13:32

all.

00:13:36--> 00:13:40

Pharaoh said that what is the case of the former generations

00:13:54--> 00:14:02

Moses said, the knowledge thereof is with my lord in a record, my lord neither ers nor forgets.

00:14:32--> 00:14:45

It is he who has made for you the earth as a bad spread out and inserted there in for you roadways, and sent down from the sky rain, and produced there by categories of various plants kulu

00:14:48--> 00:14:49

in the field,

00:14:55--> 00:15:00

eat there from and pasture your livestock, indeed in that Arsenal

00:15:00--> 00:15:04

For those of intelligence, I mean, call upon a

woman,

00:15:10--> 00:15:11

woman

00:15:16--> 00:15:24

from the earth, we created you and Intuit we will return you. And from it, we will extract you another time. Well,

00:15:27--> 00:15:28

Tina Kula.

00:15:31--> 00:15:38

And we certainly showed Pharaoh our signs, all of them. But he denied and refused. All I

00:15:41--> 00:15:41

mean,

00:15:45--> 00:15:50

he said, Have you come to us to drive us out of our land with your magic, oh, Moses,

00:16:10--> 00:16:20

then we will surely bring you magic like it. So make between us and you an appointment, which we will not fail to keep, and neither will you in a place assign

00:16:21--> 00:16:22

all

00:16:24--> 00:16:25

Xena to

00:16:26--> 00:16:28

Sharon.

00:16:30--> 00:16:37

Moses said, your appointment is on the day of the festival when the people assemble at mid morning, morning. But

00:16:44--> 00:16:48

so Pharaoh went away, put together his plan, and then came to Moses.

00:17:06--> 00:17:19

Moses said to the magician summoned by Pharaoh, Woe to you do not invent a lie against Allah or he will exterminate you with a punishment, and he has failed to invent such false hood.

00:17:29--> 00:17:40

So they disputed over their affair among themselves and concealed their private conversation. Although in NASA,

00:17:45--> 00:17:46

you read any I

00:17:49--> 00:17:50

mean?

00:17:58--> 00:18:06

They said, Indeed, these are two magicians who want to drive you out of your land with their magic, do away with your most exemplary way

00:18:18--> 00:18:26

to resolve upon your plan and then come forward in line. And he has succeeded today who overcomes all

00:18:42--> 00:18:47

they said, Oh, Moses, either you throw or we will be the first to throw

00:18:55--> 00:18:56

a meeting.

00:19:01--> 00:19:13

He said rather you throw and suddenly their ropes and stacks seem to him from their magic that they were moving like snakes. But I will just as he

00:19:16--> 00:19:17

moves

00:19:18--> 00:19:21

and he says within himself apprehension did Moses.

00:19:23--> 00:19:24

Allah.

00:19:28--> 00:19:30

Allah, Allah said

00:19:31--> 00:19:34

indeed it is you who are superior

00:19:50--> 00:20:00

and throw what is in your right hand will swallow up what they have crafted. What they have crafted is But the trick of a magician and the magician will not

00:20:00--> 00:20:01

succeed wherever he is.

00:20:14--> 00:20:21

So the magician's fell down in frustration. They said, We have believed in the Lord of Aaron and Moses,

00:20:49--> 00:20:50

lane, Walla

00:20:52--> 00:20:52

Walla.

00:21:02--> 00:21:23

Pharaoh said, You believed him before I gave you permission. Indeed, he is your leader who has taught you magic magic. So I will surely cut off your hands and your feet on opposite sides. And I will crucify you on the trunks of palm trees. And you will surely know which of us is more severe in giving punishment and more enduring.

00:21:24--> 00:21:25

All

00:21:48--> 00:22:01

they said, Never will we prefer you over what has come to us clear proofs, and over here who created us. So decree whatever you are to decree, you can only decree for this worldly life.

00:22:08--> 00:22:09

Mina

00:22:17--> 00:22:22

Mina, see. Whoa, whoa.

00:22:24--> 00:22:34

Indeed, we have believed in our Lord that He may forgive us our sins, and what you compelled us to do of magic magic and Allah is better and more enduring.

00:22:50--> 00:22:59

Indeed, whoever comes to his Lord as a criminal, indeed for him as hell, he will neither die therein nor live.

00:23:03--> 00:23:06

Mina Potter Amina Swanee.

00:23:14--> 00:23:21

But whoever comes to him as a believer having done righteous deeds, for those will be the highest degrees in position.

00:23:40--> 00:23:49

gardens have perpetual residence beneath which rivers flow wherein they abide eternally, and that is the reward of one who purifies himself.

00:24:11--> 00:24:24

And we had inspired to Moses traveled by night with my servants and strike for them a dry path through the sea. You will not fear being overtaken by Pharaoh, nor be afraid of drowning

00:24:25--> 00:24:27

that fear

00:24:35--> 00:24:40

so Pharaoh pursued them with his soldiers, and they're covered them from the sea that which covered them.

00:24:41--> 00:24:42

Well,

00:24:46--> 00:24:50

and Pharaoh led his people astray and did not guide them.

00:24:51--> 00:24:53

Yeah, Benny.

00:24:57--> 00:24:58

Jaina

00:25:14--> 00:25:23

Oh children of Israel, we delivered you from your enemy, and we made an appointment with you at the right side amount. And we sent down to you man and quails.

Bobby one.

00:25:38--> 00:25:39

Bobby Potter,

00:25:41--> 00:25:55

saying, eat from the good things with which we have provided you, and do not transgress or oppress others there in less my anger should descend upon you. And he upon whom my anger descends, has certainly fallen.

00:26:09--> 00:26:18

But indeed, I am the Perpetual Forgiver of whoever repents and believes and does righteousness and then continues in guidance. When

00:26:25--> 00:26:31

Allah said, and what made you hasten from your people, oh, Moses, Bala, Allah.

00:26:40--> 00:26:47

He said, they are close upon my tracks. And I hasten to you, My Lord, that you'll be pleased.

00:26:58--> 00:27:06

Allah said, but indeed, we have tried your people after you departed. And the summary has led them astray.

00:27:07--> 00:27:08

Why don't you

00:27:10--> 00:27:11

follow me?

00:27:15--> 00:27:17

Follow me Alameda

00:27:35--> 00:27:54

So Moses returned to his people angry and grieved. He said, Oh my people, did your Lord not make you a good promise? Then was the time of its fulfillment too long for you? Or did you wish that wrath from your Lord descend upon you? So you broke your promise of obedience to me?

00:28:01--> 00:28:02

Walla

00:28:06--> 00:28:06

Walla.

00:28:23--> 00:28:36

They said, We did not break our promise to you by our will. But we were made to carry burdens from the ornaments of the people of Pharaoh. So we threw them into the fire, and thus to disarm Mary throw.

00:28:52--> 00:29:01

And he extracted for them the statue of a calf, which had a lowing sound, and they said, this is your God and the God of Moses, but he forgot.

00:29:15--> 00:29:22

Did they not see that it could not return to them any speech, and that it did not possess for them any harm or benefit?

00:29:44--> 00:29:56

And Aaron had already told them before the return of Moses, oh my people, you are only being tested by it. And indeed, your Lord is the Most Merciful. So follow me and obey my order.

00:29:58--> 00:29:58

00:30:07--> 00:30:15

They said we will never cease being devoted to the calf until Moses returns to us all.

00:30:21--> 00:30:26

Moses said, Oh, Aaron, what prevented you when you saw them going astray

00:30:29--> 00:30:30

Damiani

00:30:33--> 00:30:36

from following me, then have you disobeyed my order?

00:30:56--> 00:30:57

Tom.

00:30:59--> 00:31:13

Aaron said, Oh son of my mother, mother do not sees me by my beard or by my head. Indeed, I feared that you would say you cause division among the children of Israel. And you did not observe or await my word.

00:31:19--> 00:31:21

Moses said, and what is your case?

Moses said, then go and indeed it is decreed for you in this life to say no contact. And indeed you have an appointment in the hereafter we will not fail to to

00:32:40--> 00:32:47

and look at your God to which you remain devoted. We will surely burn it and blow it into the sea with a blast.

00:33:02--> 00:33:24

Your God is only Allah, except for whom there is no deity. He has encompassed all things in knowledge. Life's lessons from the Quran are infinite. And the more you look into the Quran, and approach it with a sincere heart, give it your attention, while assuming its magnificence, the more your heart connects with the Almighty

00:33:29--> 00:33:31

In

the when he saw a fire and said to his family stay here. Indeed I have perceived a fire. Perhaps I can bring you a torch or find at the fire some guidance.

00:34:13--> 00:34:59

The previous why the verses nine and 10 from chapter 20. They contain many important lessons that I think we can all benefit from. In particular, we can focus on 10 important lessons that impact our family life. This does not limit of course, Business and Management applications, educational considerations, and other professional dimensions. First, I will begin by listing out the 10 important lessons which we will be focusing on then there will be a brief explanation of each lesson. They are as follows. life lesson number one family comes first. life lesson number two present danger is better than hidden danger.

00:35:00--> 00:35:43

a life lesson number three danger to one is better than exposing too many. life lesson number four, one person takes the final decision. life lesson number five leaders consult and explain their decision making process. life lesson number six, speak to all whom your decision impacts life lesson number seven, do not promise what is not assured. life lesson number eight maximize your benefit from danger. life lesson number nine prioritize, prioritize, prioritize. life lesson number 10 take responsibility.

00:35:46--> 00:36:35

life lesson number one, family comes first prioritization. Prophet Moses seeks to ensure his family's safety and comfort by asking them to wait for him in the cold darkness of the night. While he departs to investigate the source of the fire at a distance from them. never compromise your family and lead them into the unknown. life lesson number two, present danger is better than hidden danger. Assessing the odds, Prophet Moses knows that is dangerous to leave his family in the dark expanse of the desert in which they will last. Yet that is a less danger than walking into a campfire of what could possibly be a group of vegans, who would be a source of harm for the family.

00:36:36--> 00:37:29

The known danger is clear and evident. But at least this is predictable. life lesson number three, danger to one is better than exposing too many risk management profit Moses instinctively decides that the danger faced by Him alone is worth the risk of warmth and guidance to safety. Judgment is imperative when a possibility of danger exists. And the less exposure whether financially psychologically, spiritually and physically is better. life lesson number four, one person takes the final decision. effective leadership. In trying circumstances defined clear and unambiguous directions can be the difference between life and death, health and sickness, safety and tragedy. In

00:37:29--> 00:38:20

all decisions, especially within the household, a unified singular voice needs to provide leadership and direction. life lesson number five. Leaders consultant explain their decision making process. clarity. Prophet Moses explains in detail why he has made the decision to investigate the fire and to leave his family behind. It is reasoned, rationale and explicit. Often complaints arise about a decision being made without consultation and explanation that contradicts the established prophetic model. Decisions are not demands, and the authority to make them is not inherent to one party over another except by the virtue of trust. Trust is lost not by poor decisions, but by poor

00:38:20--> 00:39:16
