Re: Dua of Musa
I don’t disagree with your analysis or interpretation psyah bhai and at the same time I agree with BN’s suggestion that you can find whatever you wish to look for.
The original disagreement began with the terminology: a book of spells.
Maybe BN can further clarify but I took his statement to mean that it is not a compilation of incantations that can be recited by anyone that wishes to make something happen, as a magician would want us to believe he/she can do.
While Allah swt can provide healing to anyone He wishes in any way He wishes, the suggestion that the holy Quran contains “spells” would lead to the assumption that anyone, even one without faith, can recite surah Fatiha and expect to be healed of whatever ails them.
sometimes I feel like women generally get it. There is no religious male ego trying to emerge as better and knowledgable.
