Karun becomes Pharaoh’s most trusted advisor, and Hz. He begins to show a hostile attitude towards Moses. In time, he dedicates all his time to his gold and Pharaoh. Hz. Moses warns him that Allah gave all his wealth and that he can get it back in the same way. Karun says that she got her wealth through her own efforts and that she doesn’t need God’s help.<\/p>\n

This subject is mentioned in the Qur’an as follows;<\/strong> \u201cKarun was from the people of Moses. But by cooperating with Pharaoh, he treated them cruelly. We had given him such treasures that it was difficult for a strong-willed congregation to even carry the keys alone. His tribe was warning him as follows: Do not be spoiled! Surely, Allah does not like the pampered!\u201d <\/em>(Kasas \/ Verse 76)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Hz. The Prophet Moses always reminded Karun to give zakat on his property. However, Karun He begins to make a plan to get rid of Musa. He goes to Pharaoh and Hz. They devise a plan to get rid of Moses. According to their plans, one of the prostitutes of Egypt, Hz. She will slander Moses in front of all the people on a feast day. When the feast day comes, the whole city gathers in the square. In order to carry out the plan, the Pharaoh sent Hz. He also invites Moses. Pharaoh, St. He asks Musa if adultery is haram. Hz. Moses answers that adultery is absolutely haram. Upon these words, Pharaoh calls out to the woman waiting behind; He says, “Come out, come and tell everyone what happened, tell them so that everyone can hear that you committed adultery with Moses.”<\/p>\n

Hz. Without looking at the woman, the Prophet Moses raises his stick in the air and raises his voice as follows: \u201cO woman, tell the truth, only tell the truth. Did I commit adultery with you?” Everyone’s eyes are on the woman. Pharaoh and Karun eagerly await what will come out of the woman’s two lips. But at that moment, the woman who saw the Prophet Moses changes completely. The woman says: “O Moses, I swear by Allah that you certainly did not commit adultery with me.” Hearing this, Karun and Pharaoh are shocked. The people who witnessed the event shouted, \u201cWe believe in the Lord of Moses\u201d.<\/p>\n

After this incident, Mr. The Prophet Moses tells the earth to swallow Karun, and Allah orders them to split into the ground. Thus, a miracle happens before everyone’s eyes, and the ground begins to split. First the place swallows all of Karun’s treasure, and then the king Karun. Karun goes underground up to his throat. Stretching out his hand, he begs, “Please, Moses, save me and forgive me.” However, Moses does not listen to him. Thus, the richest, stingy king in the world, with his unique treasure, breaks into the ground and disappears from sight.<\/p>\n

This subject is mentioned in the Qur’an as follows;<\/strong> \u201cAt the end, we destroyed Karun and his house and his shelter. So much so that there was no longer any group that could help him against Allah; Of course, he was not in a position to help himself.\u201d<\/em> (Kasas \/ Verse 81)<\/p>\n

\u201dThose who dreamed of being in his place just yesterday were saying this morning: \u201cAmazing! So, Allah gives plenty of sustenance to whomever He wishes, and less to whom He wishes, for the test. If God had not been kind to us, He would have driven us to the ground, too. Wow; so unbelievers will never prosper!\u201d <\/em>(Kasas \/ Verse 82)<\/p>\n

Karun’s Treasure on Display at the U\u015fak Museum<\/strong><\/h3>\n

In 1968, in a village on the \u0130zmir-U\u015fak road, a man took five villagers with him with a treasure map and started digging the place he indicated. They found a tomb at the excavated site and found a treasure trove of 520 jewels inside the tomb. This treasure consisted of the jewels left to the princess from the Lydian King Croesus. That is, it was only a small portion of the great treasure that the princess owned. However, according to a circulating rumor that has survived to the present day, Karun’s treasure was talismanic.<\/p>\n

The treasure found was completely smuggled to America. Then, the villagers who took out the treasure began to lose their lives one after the other in an interesting way. Some fell under the tractor, some became blind, some lost their minds. Also, the treasury was of no use to those involved in the business in America. They too lost their lives one by one. After many years, Karun’s treasure, which was exhibited in the New York Metropolitan Museum, attracted attention and it was realized that he had been smuggled out of Turkey. After a long legal process, Turkey was able to win the case and get the treasury back. A tiny piece of King Karun’s magnificent treasure dating back thousands of years is still on display at the U\u015fak Museum today.<\/p>\n

However, years later it was realized that after the treasure was exhibited in the museum, its most important piece, the winged seahorse, had disappeared. Despite all the security measures regarding the incident, the original stolen piece was found in Germany after a long time and was brought back to the U\u015fak Museum. According to the narrations, the part of the real treasure buried underground will only be found when Hazrat Mahdi (as) takes office and will be distributed to those in need.<\/p>\n
