Musa, peace be upon him

The one who spoke with Allah, sent to Pharaoh; the sea was split for him, and he was given the Torah.

Musa was born in a year Pharaoh slaughtered sons. His mother placed him in the river; Pharaoh's household took him in, and wet nurses were withheld until he returned to his mother.

He went to Madyan, then was called from the tree in the sacred valley: go to Pharaoh, he has transgressed. He was supported with signs: the staff, the hand, and the blows upon Pharaoh's people.

The magicians believed. Allah saved the Children of Israel and drowned Pharaoh. On the mount Musa was given the tablets. His story is the most repeated in the Quran, to strengthen the Prophet ﷺ.
