Mûsâ ibn Amram (Arabic: موسى Mūsa) was sent to call Firaun and his people to believe in the Oneness of Allah. He was strengthened by a number of miracles. Allah instructed Musa to throw down his staff which miraculously turned into a huge snake and swallowed all the snakes which the magicians of Firaun had made appear. Musa was also instructed to put his hand in his pocket, and it came forth radiantly white, without stain. Firaun promised severe punishments to the followers of Musa. Musa was commanded to leave [./https://muslim.fandom.com/wiki/Misr Misr] with his people by night. Musa's followers were to cross the Red Sea towards Sinai in a huge procession. They were reassured not to fear Firaun, nor the sea, nor the vast unknown desert of Sinai into which they were venturing. They crossed the Red Sea - after Musa struck the sea with his miraculous staff and it split into dry passage - while Firaun, who had pursued them with his troops, was overwhelmed by the sea and perished.
