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 And when they reached the place where the two seas meet, they forgot about their fish, and it took its way into the sea, making a tunnel. (The dead fish came alive and went into the water.) 61 Moses asked his young companion when they crossed this point, "Bring us our food; the journey has made us tired." 62 He replied, "Did you see when we were resting by the rock, that I forgot the fish? Satan made me forget it, so I did not mention it. It made its way to the sea in a miraculous way!" 63 He said: This is what we sought for; so they returned retracing their footsteps. 64 Then they found one of Our slaves, unto whom We had bestowed mercy from Us, and whom We had taught knowledge from Us. 65 Moses said to him, 'Shall I follow thee so that thou teachest me, of what thou hast been taught, right judgment.' 66 He answered: "You will surely not be able to bear with me. 67 How could you be patient in matters beyond your knowledge?" 68 He (Moses) said: 'If Allah wills, you shall find me patient, I shall not disobey your order' 69 "If you must follow me," he said, "do not ask me any thing until I speak of it to you myself." 70
