Abstract

This study aims to analyze the story of the Prophet Moses (AS) in the Qur'an as an attempt to rationalize the search for God, emphasizing the story's relevance to contemporary religious understanding. The research method employed is a qualitative study with a library approach, utilising thematic analysis of verses from the Qur'an that recount the spiritual journey of Prophet Moses (AS). Data were collected from primary sources in the form of the Qur'anic text and secondary literature in the form of classical and modern interpretations, then analyzed descriptively and analytically. The results of the study indicate that the story of the Prophet Moses (AS) not only presents a historical narrative, but also contains rational, spiritual, and ethical dimensions that emphasize the role of reason and experience in finding God. These findings confirm that the Qur'anic story can serve as a model for faith education that is both argumentative and reflective, with practical applications. The implication of this study is the need to develop the study of the Qur'anic story as a contextual method of religious learning, especially to strengthen moderate religious literacy in the modern era. The originality of this study lies in the focus of its analysis, which places the story of the Prophet Moses (AS) not merely as a prophetic history, but as a rationalization of the search for God that is actual and relevant for today's readers.
