هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ مُوسَىٰٓ
Hal at a ka h adeethu moos a
HAS THE STORY of Moses ever come within thy ken?6
  - Mohammad Asad

Connecting with the preceding passage, the story of Moses (which appears in much greater detail in {20:9-98}) is cited here as an illustration of the fact that everyone will have to answer on Judgment Day for whatever he did in life, and that it is the main function of every prophet to make man aware of this responsibility.

Have you heard the story of Musa (Moses)?
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Has the story of Moses reached you 'O Prophet'?
  - Mustafa Khattab
Hath there come unto thee the history of Moses?
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Has the story of Moses reached thee? 5927
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

This is just a reference to the story of Moses told more fully in S. xx. 9-76. The lessons drawn are: (1) That even to an arrogant blasphemer and rebel against Allah's Law, like Pharaoh, Allah's grace was offered through a major Prophet Moses; (2) that this rejection brought about his signal downfall even in this world; and (3) that his humiliation and punishment will be completed in the Hereafter at Judgment.
