Summary
This article explains that Prophet Musa's supplication in Surah Taha verses 27-28 shows he had an impediment in speech. Exegetes such as Ibn Kathir, al-Tabari and al-Maturidi link it to the incident in his childhood when he placed a burning coal in his mouth. His request for Prophet Harun to accompany him is not a disgrace for the prophets, since the work of calling to God involved heavy trials. The article is an explanatory piece, not an official position of the Mufti of Selangor.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Justeru, jika dibandingkan mengikut kedua-dua tafsir dan merujuk makna dalam bahasa Arab, terdapat kesamaan mengenai apa yang terdapat dalam ayat 27-28 Surah Taha, iaitu Nabi Musa memiliki kekurangan dalam berbicara.
