To identify the ungratefulness of the Bani Israeel

3. The Bani Israeel’s First Request
After safely crossing the Red Sea, Hazrat Moosa and the Bani Israeel travelled through the wilderness to Mount Sinai.
On their way they passed a temple where in idol-worshippers were busy in their idolatrous practices. Upon seeing this the Bani Israeel said to Hazrat Moosa:
“Oh Moosa! Make a deity for us, so that we may also have an idol to worship.”

4. Why did Musa become so angry?
Upon hearing this verbal request of idolatry, Hazrat Moosa became very angry. He reprimanded the people severely:
“Oh you wretched people! Are you forsaking the worship of one Allaah Ta’ala and turning to idolatry. Have you forgotten all these great bounties of Allaah Ta’ala which you have seen with your eyes.”
Why did Musa become so angry?
