Dear Hasan,
These are stories, myths, etc. A Prophet of God is a Manifestation of God
the Unconstrained. Moses committed murder, and He later admitted to
Pharoah that it was wrong. Abraham at one point said that He worshipped
stars, then He changed His mind and said that He worshipped the moon, then
He changed His mind and said that He worshipped the Sun, and finally He
changed His mind and said that He worshipped God.
Also, bear in mind that we can't and shouldn't project today's standards
of conduct back into 5000 years ago.
Warm and loving regards,
Iskandar
