Salam aleykum.I would like to hear from you if there is a source with strong evidence concerning the life time of Musa alehissalam? Any Islamic,Jewish or Christian or secular historic source ? Thanks.

1526 BC
Moses was born to Amram and Jochebed. Pharaoh Tuthmosis I of Egypt commanded the midwives that all male Hebrew babies were to be killed at birth. Jochebed kept him hidden at home for three months, then she put him in a basket and into the Nile River. Pharaoh's daughter, Hatshephut, found him while bathing and knowing he was a Hebrew adopted him as her own son. Jochebed was paid by Hatshephut to nurse him until weaned (abt. 2-3 years). Moses was then raised in the court of Pharaoh and educated in all the wisdom of Egypt. [Exo 1:15-19; 2:1-10; Acts 7:22]
Nothing is said of when Miriam, Aaron and Moses sister, was born, but she was quite a bit older than Moses. It is possible that Moses was born to Amram at the age of 137, maybe even a few months before he died as there is no mention of him after Moses was born. Since her father had commanded all male Hebrew children to be killed, Hatshephut told her father that Moses was her son.
Had the non-believer known of all the Mercy which is in the Hands of Allah, he would not lose hope of entering Paradise, and had the believer known of all the punishment which is present with Allah, he would not consider himself safe from the Hell-Fire http://www.muftimenk.co.za/Downloads.html
It is hard to find physical evidence of anyone who lived that long ago, the only evidence we have is contained within the Bible. The Books of Moses, which may or may not have all been written by Moses himself. They most probably were not.
"Imagination was given to man to compensate him for what he is not, and a sense of humor was provided to console him for what he is."
This site claims the pharaoh described in the surah, the pharaoh whose body was preserved, was called Mineptah. This site has this to say about him
Mineptah, fourth and last Pharaoh of the XIX Dynasty, ruled Egypt from 1235 to 1224 B.C. He was the thirteenth son of Ramses II and Isinofret and came to power at a ripe old age. If his father was considered the Pharaoh of the Jewish slavery in Egypt, his son Mineptah was considered the Pharaoh of the Exodus.
The most commonly accepted date is the 13th century BCE..or BC. Universities now usually require we say BCE, meaning Before Common Era instead of BC.
Hmmph, I have had some Johovas wittnesses telling me that BCE was Before Christ Eternal.
(which I pointed out that if it was before something that had existed forever then that was a oxymoron, and the path of the converstion deteriorated thereon......as it always seems to with me and the JW's.

Greetings Barney.
BCE meaning is "Before the Common, Christian, or Current Era"
