Has the story of Moses reached you? (9)

When he saw a fire, he said to his family: 'Stay here, for I can see a fire. Perhaps I can bring you a lighted torch or find at the fire guidance. ' (10)

When he reached it, he was called: 'O Moses, (11)

I am your Lord. Take off your shoes, for you are in Towa, the sacred valley. (12)

I have chosen you. Therefore, listen to what shall be revealed. (13)

Indeed, I am Allah. There is no god except Me. Worship Me, and establish the prayer of My remembrance. (14)

The Hour is coming. I almost conceal it, so that every soul will be recompensed for its labors. (15)

Do not let those who disbelieve in it and follow their desires bar you from it, or you will perish. (16)

What is that in your right hand, Moses? ' (17)

'It is my staff," Moses replied, "upon it I lean and with it I beat down leaves to feed my sheep and for me there are other uses in it. ' (18)
