 Quran Chapter 2 Verse 54


When Moses returned, he said to his people, “O my people! You have hurt your own

 ‘self’ by worshiping the calf. So, turn in repentance to your Maker and kill your ego (rebellious mentality). This will be best for you in the Sight of your Maker.”

Thereupon He turned toward you accepting your repentance. He is the Acceptor

 of repentance, the Merciful. [7:148-156, 12:53. 

Baari بارئ

= The Maker 

= Initiator

= Originator 

= The Original Designer. Unfortunately, blindly following the

 account of Exodus (to say in all humility, correctly described in QXP 32:26-28),

most ancient and modern commentators of the Qur’an, including Maududi مودودى of the

 20th century, stumble on this verse as well. They maintain that the Israelites in a

 matter of hours killed one another randomly up to 70,000 men! Others claim that

 only the culprits were killed! All this confusion arises for giving literal meaning

 to Qatl قتل and for blindly following some Biblical accounts and fabricated Hadith.

This is all the more amazing since the same verse is showing Pardon from God

to the Israelites for their worshiping of the calf. 

Qatl قتل

= Subdue 

= Bring low 

=

 Humiliate 

= Make humble 

= Killing the inflated or rebellious Ego 

= Qatl قتل also

 means murder, slaying, fighting, but in different contexts]
