The Another Story of Al-Baqarah (A Cow)

"Allah hath commanded you to slaughter a cow." They say: "Do you want to make us mockery?" (Surah Al Baqarah : 67) 

    It has mentioned in Al-Quran a story about a slaughter of a cow in Prophet Musa ‘Alaihissalam’s era. The purpose of the slaughter of a cow was to find out the suspect who had killed a man that in the end of the story we discover that the suspect was the victim’s own cousin. Well, the story that the writer is going to retell isn’t about that story, but this is the fiction one, this is about the cow story. This is just like the other side of the real story. Enjoy! 

      One day, in the era of Moses Prophet, there lived a cow in the middle of a forest in the village of the Bani Israil. The cow was once guarded and cared for by a devout man from the Bani Israil. But, the man has gone, and the cow was alone without any guard in the middle of the jungle of the Bani Israil. The cow was called, "Baqarah", the color of her skin was bright yellow with no defects and stripes that could make people happy when they looked at her. 

     Baqarah ever had time when he bored living in the middle of the forest. However, his friends were great friends and were always entertaining him when he bored and sad. 

     "Friends, thank you for taking me well in this place," Baqarah said. 

     "Yeah, Baqarah, you’re welcome. We as your good friends will continue to be with you. ", Replied the Rabbit. 

    Once, while Baqarah was engrossed in hide-and-seek with his friends, he heard the melodious voice of a man calling his name, "I mean to you by mentioning the name of Allah, Prophet Ibrahim 'alaihissalam, Prophet Ismail 'alaihissalam, and Prophet Ishaq 'alaihissalam.", The man said. Spontaneously Baqarah approached the man. 

      Afterwards, Baqarah moved to the camp area of ​​the Bani Israil with the man. And shortly after that, came the people of Bani Israil who were searching for a cow with the characteristics that Moses Prophet had mentioned, and his features were exactly the same as Baqarah! 

      "O Allah, if this is the fate you have set upon me, then I am fully willing," Baqarah said. Then he recited the shahadah. 

      After that, as we already know that in the end of the story, Baqarah was slain and Moses Prophet was able to find the murderer of a man whom he had sought before.
