Surah 20

Surah 20:10

"When he saw a fire, he said to his family, ‘Stay (here). Surely I perceive a fire. Perhaps I shall bring you a flaming torch from it, or I shall find at the fire guidance.’"

20.10 – When he saw a fire
The episode known to many as the “burning bush” is recounted in the Quran in three different versions. Among the many interesting details in these stories are the names that God gives for himself to Moses. Here God introduces himself as “your Lord” ( rabb , v. 12) and “Allah” (v. 14). The other versions of the story are found at 27:7–12 and 28:29–35.
