The Savior
There once was a king, who was very cruel to the people of his kingdom. He was greedy, selfish, heartless and very powerful. The people of his kingdom prayed for the day when they would be freed from his ruthless torture.
One day the king sat in his castle asking a wise man of what his already good future would bring him. The wise man told the king what he always told him, his future would bring him, money, gold and more power then he already had.
The king laughed. But then wise man told him something that struck his laughter shut. He told him, that in the next 7 days a baby boy would be born into his kingdom that would defeat him and take over his kingdom.
The king vowed that no one would defeat him therefore he would kill every baby boy to be born in the next seven days.
His army set out the very next day to slaughter every baby boy born in the next 7 days. The mothers scream echoed through the kingdom as their babies were ripped away from them. This continued for the next 7 days until every boy born in the 7 days was killed, or so the king thought.
On the 7th day a mother gave birth to a beautiful baby boy. She than realized what would happen to him, so scared for the life of her child she wrapped him up and put him in a box which then the child’s father put in the nearby river to save the child's life. The army came to their house the same day and asked them for their child they told the army that the mother could not deliver the baby so he died in the process of his birth, not believing the family the army searched the whole neighborhood for the baby boy. When not found they returned to the castle to tell the king the job was done and he could now sleep in peace.
3 days later the king’s wife finds a box in a river by the castle and inside the box was a beautiful baby boy. The king’s wife brought the child to her husband and asked if she could keep him. The king seeing how all the baby boys born in the 7 days were already killed and he was childless and this baby could cause no harm he gave her the permission to keep the child.
The boy was named Musa. His mother loved him very much. When Musa was 2 years old he was playing around and ended up in a room where a meeting of kings from other places was being held. Musa ran up to the king and pulled at his beard, gasp of horror were let out by everyone in the room including the king himself. He pushed the child away from him and called upon his guards to behead the child for his act, hearing about this the queen ran in to the room to save her son from this torture. She argued that he is a child who is not aware of his doing. The king thought that if he really did not know of his doing then he would be tested. He ordered his servant to bring up hot rocks and said that if Musa picked up the hot rocks he would not be punished. The hot rocks were placed in front of Musa and not knowing the rock was hot Musa reached over and picked it up. The king now believed that the queen was right and forgave the child.
As Musa growing up he finds out that he is a messenger sent by ALLAH to spread Islam. The people of the kingdom start to follow his ways and the king started to fear that he would take over and his kingdom would no longer be his. He told Musa to stop ruining his kingdom or else he would kill him. Musa carried on with what he was doing because he knew ALLAH would protect him if any trouble came his way. The king had had enough and now he would destroy Musa before he took over his kingdom. He set out with his army the next day to kill Musa and anyone who follows him. As Musa lay asleep that night he dreamt of what the king and his army was up to and right away he knew it was a message from ALLAH. The next day he called forth all the people of the kingdom and told them to leave with them if they believed in ALLAH and want to escape the tortures ways of the king. As all those people set forth Musa began to lead them away from the kingdom with guidance from ALLAH. The king and his army found out that Musa had left so he and his army set out after them. Musa and his followers stopped as they came across an ocean in front of them so when they decided to turn the other way there stood before them was the king and his army. Musa hears another message from ALLAH that tells him to step the ocean with his followers and he tells all his followers that if they believe in him and ALLAH they step in to the water with him. As soon as he and his followers step in to the water it majestically separates and makes a road for them to walk on. The king and his army see this and also step in the water to after them as he and his army also step in to the water the path clears for them as well. When the king and his army are right in the middle of the ocean the path closes and he and his army are washed out with the water.
Musa returns and brings peace to the kingdom. The people of the kingdom call him there god because they have saved him from the cruel king he shakes his head and says that he is only a messenger to the one who really saved them ALLAH.
