Abstract
The Quran, gradually revealed, provided continuous support and reinforcement for the spiritual and emotional well-being of the Prophet (PBUH). According to verse 120 of Surah Hud, narrating the divine stories of prophets in the Quran was a deliberate strategy to fortify the heart of the Prophet (PBUH) and believers. This research aims to explore how the story of Prophet Moses (AS) in Surah An-Naml contributed to stabilizing the heart of the Prophet (PBUH). A descriptive-analytical examination indicates that Allah took the narrative of Moses (AS) in Surah An-Naml to deliver two glad tidings to the Prophet (PBUH) and believers: the first being the support of Allah during the challenging social-economic siege of some believers in the Shi'b Abi Talib and the migration of others to Abyssinia. The second glad tiding anticipated the downfall of the false front and the triumph of truth, symbolizing that although the believers were initially few in number at the start of the Prophet's (PBUH) mission, they would soon replace the disbelievers and polytheists, gaining control over the Arabian Peninsula. This assurance of continuous victory for the believers over the disbelievers throughout history serves as an undeniable sign of the truthfulness of the divine message. The heart of the Prophet (PBUH) and his followers is thereby stabilized, ensuring spiritual strength during the course of the mission and the establishment of a global Islamic society.
