AND LO! [In the course of his wanderings,] Moses said to his servant: "I shall not give up until I reach the junction of the two seas, even if I [have to] spend untold years [in my quest]!" 60 But when they reached the junction between them, they forgot their fish, and it took its course into the sea, slipping away. 61 Moses asked his young companion when they crossed this point, "Bring us our food; the journey has made us tired." 62 He said, 'What thinkest thou? When we took refuge in the rock, then I forgot the fish-and it was Satan himself that made me forget it so that I should not remember it -- and so it took its way into the sea in a manner marvellous.' 63 Moses said: "But that is exactly what we were seeking." So they retraced their steps. 64 So they found one of Our servants, on whom We had bestowed Mercy from Ourselves and whom We had taught knowledge from Our own Presence. 65 Moses asked him, "Can I follow you so that you would teach me the guidance that you have received?" 66 He said: Surely you cannot have patience with me 67 "And how canst thou have patience about things about which thy understanding is not complete?" 68 Replied [Moses]: "Thou wilt find me patient, if God so wills; and I shall not disobey thee in anything!" 69 He said: If you would follow me, then do not question me about any thing until I myself speak to you about it 70
