Born during the reign of the tyrant Firaun, Musa was set adrift in the Nile by his mother to save his life, only to be raised in the very palace of his oppressor. Yet, destiny called him back as a prophet, armed with divine purpose. Musa's story reminds us that no matter our beginnings, it is our steadfastness in faith that truly defines our path. Join us for our upcoming Miftaah seminar, From Palace to Prophecy as we explore and extract lessons from the life of Prophet Musa AS.
