NINE CLEAR SIGNS GIVEN TO HAZRAT MUSA AS

It has been reported in Abu Dawud, an-Nasai, Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah on the authority of Sayyidna Safwan Ibn al-Aththal RAA that a Jew once asked one of his friends to take him to 'that' prophet. They came to the Holy Prophet ﷺ and asked, "What were the nine clear signs (آیاتِ بیّنات) given to Sayyidna Musa AS. Rasool Allah SAW said,

"1. Do not ascribe any partners to Allah Ta'alah.
2. Do not steal.
3. Do not do Zina (physical relations outside of wedlock).
4. Do not unjustly take the life of someone whose killing has been forbidden by Allah Ta'alah.
5. Do not falsely input anyone innocent with charges liable to the sentence of death or any other punishment.
6. Do not practice magic.
7. Do not devour interest.
8. Do not level a false accusation of Zina on a chaste woman.
9. Do not desert the battlefield in Jihad for fear of being killed.

And he also said, "O Jews, it ha also been enjoined on you that you shall not contravene the particular injunctions of the observance of the day of Sabbath (Saturday) given to you.'"
