This thesis attempts to answer the following questions: 1) In what context do the Mosaic narratives occur? 2) What is the role of Moses? 3) How does the figure of Moses function? 4) To what extent is Moses a "model" for the Prophet Muhammad? The figure of Moses grows to such importance because the narratives well suited the situations in which the Prophet Muhammad and his followers found themselves. Was Moses a "model" or was he, as some Western scholars say, "Made in Muhammad's image"? A study of the relevant materials reveals certain parallels between the situation and mission of the Prophet Muhammad and Moses i.e., Monotheism, the religio-political dimension, gatherlng of a community and, the Exodus and the Hijrah, dealing with opposition and transmission of a revelation. [...] / Cette thèse essaie de répondre aux questions suivantes: 1. Dans quels contextes les récits se développent-ils? 2. Quel est le rôle de Moise? 3. Comment se dégage l'image de Moïse? 4.

Moise était-il un "modèle" ou a-t-il été "créé à l'image de Muhammad?" L'étude des passages pertinents révèle certains parallèles entre la situation et la mission du Prophète Muhammad et celles de Moise: le monothéisme; la dimension religio-politique; l'Exode, l'Hijrah et le rassemblement d'une communauté; le traitement envers les opposants et la transmission d'une révélation.
