Quran,Translation and Commentary in Brief (Vol. 04)
Verses 29-35Verses 36-37

      Now comes the seventh episode of our story about the Arch Prophet of God, inwhich he hears a call, a Divine call-from a green burning bush, where from, he is assigned to his great sacred mission.

      Moses worked in the house of Shuaib for ten years. No one knows what happened to him during that decade. It might have been the best and the happiest part of his life. A decade of tranquility, comfort, learning from a Divine Teacher (SHUAIB), and the enjoyments of a good wife, and a good family life. There he had enough time, as a shephered and a farmer, in the wilds and deserts and mountain, to ponder over the wonders of nature, and the artful creation of his Lord and Creator. Soon ten years elapsed:-

when Moses passed the term, he set out with his household, perhaps he wished to see tis brother, family, and other children of lsrael ufrer a long separation. In hes way eh perceivesd a fire on the mountain side.

He said to his wife;- I perceive a five! wait a moment here. perhaps I may bring you a news of it (if a people live be the fire) or I may bring you a brand of it that you may warm yourselves.

      He had seen a light glimmering from that distance and when he came close to pick up a brand of fire, he found it to have been a green burning bush, which burnt, but did not consume!

      When he approached the bush to see what sort of a natural phenomenon could it be, he heard a call, saying:-

      ``Blessed is he who is in the fire and he who is around it. Glory be to Allah the Lord of all the world. O, Moses! I am Allah (YAHOVAH), Exalted in Might, All-wise.''

      There was a little pause, and Moses struck with astonishment! Once again the call said:-

      ``O, Moses, I am your Lord! Take off your sandals that you are now in the sacred valley of TOWÄ. I am Allah, there is no god but Me, so serve me. And what is that in your right hand?''

      Moses who was perplexed by the Sweet Compassionate voice, said:- ``It is my stick, upon it I lean, with it I beat down leave for my flock, and it has other uses besides.'' Again the voice said:-

      ``O, Moses cast your stick down.''

      Moses threw it down and there upon it turned into a fast moving huge snake! Moses was afraid and turned his back, and fled away, and did not look behind!

      But the call assured him saying:-

      ``O, Moses! Don't be afraid and seize it, we shall return it to its former condition. Prophets do not fear in My Presence. Come back and now put your hand into your arm-pit, and you will have it out shining white and without any harm! Go you now to Pharaoh that he has transgressed all the bounds. He and his people have been debauchers.''

      Moses got his great spiritual mission, and was assured enough that there was nothing for him to fear, and that in dangers and difficulties, God would be with him; but still there was a knot in his heart, and he seemed to have some questions unanswered.

      ``My Lord!'' He said, ``I have killed one of them, and I am afraid they will want to take vengeance for that, by killing me. On the other hand, I am not well versed in speech, while my brother Aaron is more eloquent than me. So appoint him a counsellor for me. Grant me enough strength and let him share my task, that we may celebrate your praises without stint.''

      The call replied:- ``O, Moses! Your requests are granted.''
