Surah 79

Surah 79:15

"Has the story of Moses come to you?"

79.15 – Has the story of Moses come to you?

The question itself seems to imply that the story has indeed previously come to the messenger, and the referential style of the story suggests that the audience knows the larger narrative framework of which this episode (vv. 15–25) is one part. This raises questions about the identity and context of both messenger and audience.
