#13 Snake: Animals Mentioned in the Quran

Stories From the Quran by Meera'n Malik

In this podcast, we explore the Quranic references to the word "snake," which is mentioned 5 times in 5 verses. We focus on the fascinating story of Prophet Musa (AS) and Fir'aun, which features prominently in the Quran.

We delve into the details of how Prophet Musa (AS) demonstrated his divine authority by throwing his staff on the ground, which transformed into a snake. This miracle frightened Fir'aun, who sought advice from his ministers.

Despite witnessing this divine miracle, Fir'aun's ministers dismissed Prophet Musa (AS) as a mere magician and challenged him to a contest of magic. The stage was set for a showdown between Prophet Musa (AS) and the magicians of Fir'aun.

We examine the twists and turns of the story as Prophet Musa (AS) successfully outwits the magicians of Fir'aun, and Fir'aun is left humbled and defeated.

This story highlights the power of faith and the importance of trusting in the divine plan. It also teaches us to never underestimate the power of truth, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable opposition.
