And when Musa said to his servant: I will not cease until I reach the junction of the two rivers or I will go on for years. 60 But when they reached the junction between the two [seas,] they forgot all about their fish, and it took its way into the sea and disappeared from sight. 61 When they had journeyed further on, Moses said to his servant: "Bring us our repast. We are surely fatigued by today's journey." 62 Said [the servant]: "Wouldst thou believe it? When we betook ourselves to that rock for a rest, behold, I forgot about the fish - and none but Satan made me thus forget it - and it took its way into the sea! How strange!" 63 Moses said: "That is what we were looking for." So the two turned back, retracing their footsteps, 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 said to him: "May I follow thee, on the footing that thou teach me something of the (Higher) Truth which thou hast been taught?" 66 He (Khidr) said: "Verily! You will not be able to have patience with me! 67 And how can you have patience for what you do not encompass in knowledge?" 68 He said: If Allah pleases, you will find me patient and I shall not disobey you in any matter. 69 He said: Well, if thou go with me, ask me not concerning aught till I myself make mention of it unto thee. 70
