Moses [PBUH] died becoz sin ? corruption of Bible..
[THIS IS REPOST OF SAME NOTE.REPOSTING FOR READERS TO UNDERSTAND,AS TODAY WE TALKED LITTLE ABOUT MOSES A.S.]
All three Monotheistic faiths revere Moses as a Righteous Prophet. Followers of Judaism even revere Moses to be the greatest Prophet of Israel and to Christians, Moses is compared to Jesus. Likewise, Muslims profess that Muhammad (peace be upon him) is the foretold Prophet (Deuteronomy 18:18) "similar to Moses".
Bible reports that Moses was stricken with a death by God. (Deuteronomy 32:51) says Moses "broke faith" with God;
"The Lord spoke to Moses that very same day saying, "Go up to this mountain of the Abarim, Mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab opposite Jericho, and look at the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the sons of Israel for a possession."
"Then die on the mountain where you ascend, and be gathered to your people, as Aaron your brother died on Mount Hor and was gathered to his people, because you broke faith with Me in the midst of the sons of Israel at the waters of Meribah-kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin,"
"because you did not treat Me as holy in the midst of the sons of Israel for you shall see the land at a distance, but you shall not go there, into the land which I am giving the sons of Israel." (Deuteronomy 32:48-52)
Bible shows a torturous death to a Prophet who devoted his life to God. Prophet Moses could have inherited the throne of Pharaoh; instead, Moses turned away the riches and pleasures of Pharaoh for God. Moses put his life in danger by single handedly fighting the army of Pharaoh; at all times having faith, God would protect him. Moses also spent decades trying to lead the rebellious Israelites through the scorching desert.
What is also painful that about the death of Moses is that he was reminded of his two loves before the murder, Moses was reminded of the death of his brother Aaron, and of the land, Moses is never to enter, Israel.
Quran Corrects Bible :
The Holy Quran keeps the integrity of Moses and does not affirm his murder. The Quran honors Moses until the end, and does not give him the horrible murder as the Bible does;
"We divided them into twelve tribes or nations. We directed Moses by inspiration, when his (thirsty) people asked him for water: "Strike the rock with thy staff": out of it there gushed forth twelve springs: Each group knew its own place for water. We gave them the shade of clouds, and sent down to them manna and quails, (saying): "Eat of the good things We have provided for you": (but they rebelled); to Us they did no harm, but they harmed their own souls." (Quran 7:160)
"And (remember) when Moses asked for water for his people, We said: "Strike the stone with your stick" Then gushed forth there from twelve springs. Each (group of) people knew its own place for water. "Eat and drink of that which Allah has provided and do not act corruptly, making mischief on the earth." (Quran 2:60)
Here the Quran states that Moses was indeed loyal and did in fact follow directions; the true and logical directions for extracting water from the rock was to hit the rock, not "speak" to the rock to gush forth the water.
In conclusion, Moses has consistently struck the rock to get water in the past. Moses has consistently obeyed God in the past. The anguishing murder for not speaking to a rock is inconsistent with God's laws of mercy, logic, and protection of his Prophets. The Quran resolves the inconsistency in the Bible by revealing Moses was never told to 'speak to the rock'. Instead, Moses was only told to strike the rock as ordered in the past. Moses also obeys God by getting the life saving water in the desert for the Israelites.
Therefore, God rewards Moses and his honor is saved in the Quran.
from hadith :
From the traditions of Prophet Muhammad, may the mercy and blessings of God be upon him, comes the account of Prophet Moses’ death. “The Angel of Death was sent to Moses. When he arrived Moses punched him in the eye. The Angel returned to his Lord and said, ‘You have sent me to a slave who does not want to die.’ God said, ‘Return to him and tell him to put his hand on the back of an ox and for every hair that will come under it, he will be granted one year of life.’ Moses said, ‘O Lord! What will happen after that?’ God replied, ‘then death.’ Moses said, ‘Let it come now!’ Moses then requested God to let him die close to the Holy Land so that he would be at a distance of a stone’s throw from it.
