Sir Ector and some think Merlin raised him. Merlin did not raise Arthur. Merlin helped Uther quench his lust for Igraine and therefore conceive Arthur but for a price. Merlin told Uther he would help if Uther consented to give up the child that would be conceived in that union. Uther of course said yes--never mind what Igraine, the mother might feel, but this was a different time from ours! Merlin knew the child--Arthur--was special and assured Uther that the babe would be raised by a man of honor--Ector.

Merlin gave him to Sir Ector, where he was brought up in safety away from the plots and death in Camelot, where his father, Uther pendragon, was king. He had a step brother, Kay/Cei/Kai, who was Ector's son. Kay is often portrayed as quite rude, selfish and arrogant.

Why did Merlin take King Arthur from king uther?

Arthur was the son of Uther and Ygraine - but Ygraine was NOT Uther's wife when Arthur was conceived. Had Uther and Ygraine had other legitimately conceived children, Aurthr would have been .... "inconvenient", and a potential threat to Uther's other sons. For Arthur's own safety, Merlin took the infant Arthur away to be raised separately. One more point; there is only ONE KING AT A TIME. If Uther was King, then Arthur could not be - and Arthur could not be King while Uther lived.
