Practice these MCQs in the appQuick fact: The Scriptures of Moses (Torah/Taurat) are mentioned 2 times in the Quran.
The Scriptures of Prophet Musa (Moses), referred to as Taurat in the Quran, are explicitly mentioned by name twice. The Quran acknowledges the Taurat as a divine revelation given to Prophet Musa for the guidance of Bani Israel. It is important to distinguish between the number of times the Taurat is mentioned by name versus the numerous references to the teachings and laws revealed to Prophet Musa throughout the Quran.
The Quran recognizes four major revealed books: Taurat (given to Musa), Zabur (given to Dawud), Injil (given to Isa), and the Quran itself (given to Prophet Muhammad PBUH). Belief in all revealed scriptures is a fundamental article of faith in Islam. While the Taurat is mentioned by name only twice, the stories and laws associated with Prophet Musa appear in many surahs, making him one of the most frequently mentioned prophets in the Quran.
