Salamu alaykum,

O you who have believed, be not like those who abused Moses; then Allah cleared him of what they said. And he, in the sight of Allah, was distinguished. (33:69)

According to most Sunni commentators of the Quran, this ayah is talking about an incident where Musa's clothes were stolen by a rock. This rock ran off with Musa's clothes and he chased it while naked in the presence of the Bani Israil who saw Musa without any clothes (this hadith is narrated in Sahih al-Bukhari).

Do Zaydi commentators concur with the above explanation and does this narration exist within Zaydi sources? If not, then what is the real story about how Musa was abused?

wa alaykum as salaam wa rahma!

Thank you for your question! Alhamdulillah, Zaydis have no such story narrated about Nabi Musa, peace be upon him! Our imams and scholars say that the harming of Musa refers to the people belying Musa and saying that the idol they constructed was their God and {the God of Musa} (Q. 20:88).

And Allah knows best!
