SİTE İÇERİĞİ
Just like all other prophets and true believers, Prophet Musa was several times subjected to verbal assaults from the deniers. Some of the psychological warfare tactics in question are:

Psychological Warfare Technique 1: One of the psychological warfare tactics employed by Pharaoh against Prophet Musa was to take every available opportunity to depict Prophet Musa and Prophet Harun as dangers to the public and the country. By means of these groundless allegations he sought to incite the public against the prophet, so much so that Pharaoh even accused Prophet Musa of “wanting to force people off their own lands.” In the verses of the Qur’an Allah describes how Pharaoh addressed the leading members of the community: He said to the High Council round about him, ‘This certainly is a skilled magician who desires by his magic to expel you from your land, so what do you recommend?’ (Surat ash-Shu‘ara’, 34-35) Through this slander Pharaoh wanted to give the public the impression that Prophet Musa and his followers were traitors, and hoped that the leaders of the community would establish a common front against the prophet and his followers. However, as Allah has promised, He neutralised Pharaoh’s plan, in the same way that all the plots against believers have always been confounded: So Allah safeguarded him from the evil things they plotted and a most evil torment engulfed Pharaoh’s people – (Surah Ghafir, 45) |

Psychological Warfare Technique 2: In order to prove the existence of Allah and that he was the messenger of Allah, Prophet Musa worked a number of miracles, by Allah’s leave, for Pharaoh. Yet Pharaoh still refused to believe, and in order to prevent the public believing either he accused Prophet Musa of witchcraft and sorcery.24) |
