61 فَلَمَّا بَلَغَا
مَجْمَعَ بَيْنِهِمَا نَسِيَا حُوتَهُمَا فَاتَّخَذَ سَبِيلَهُ فِي الْبَحْرِ سَرَباً But when they reached the Junction, they forgot (about) their Fish, which took its course through the sea (straight) as in a tunnel. |
62 فَلَمَّا جَاوَزَا قَالَ لِفَتَاهُ آتِنَا غَدَاءنَا لَقَدْ لَقِينَا مِن سَفَرِنَا
هَذَا نَصَباً When they had passed on (some distance), Moses said to his attendant: "Bring us our early meal; truly we have suffered much fatigue at this (stage of) our journey." |
63 قَالَ أَرَأَيْتَ إِذْ أَوَيْنَا إِلَى الصَّخْرَةِ فَإِنِّي نَسِيتُ
الْحُوتَ وَمَا أَنسَانِيهُ إِلَّا الشَّيْطَانُ أَنْ أَذْكُرَهُ وَاتَّخَذَ سَبِيلَهُ
فِي الْبَحْرِ عَجَباً He replied: "Sawest thou (what happened) when we betook ourselves to the rock? I did indeed forget (about) the Fish: none but Satan made me forget to tell (you) about it: it took its course through the sea in a marvellous way!" |
64 قَالَ ذَلِكَ مَا كُنَّا نَبْغِ فَارْتَدَّا عَلَى آثَارِهِمَا
قَصَصاً Moses said: "That was what we were seeking after:" So they went back on their footsteps, following (the path they had come). |
65 فَوَجَدَا عَبْداً مِّنْ عِبَادِنَا آتَيْنَاهُ رَحْمَةً مِنْ
عِندِنَا وَعَلَّمْنَاهُ مِن لَّدُنَّا عِلْماً 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. |
66 قَالَ لَهُ مُوسَى هَلْ أَتَّبِعُكَ
عَلَى أَن تُعَلِّمَنِ مِمَّا عُلِّمْتَ رُشْداً 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?" |
67 قَالَ إِنَّكَ لَن تَسْتَطِيعَ
مَعِيَ صَبْراً (The other) said: "Verily thou wilt not be able to have patience with me!" |
68 وَكَيْفَ تَصْبِرُ عَلَى مَا لَمْ تُحِطْ بِهِ خُبْراً "And how canst thou have patience about things about which thy understanding is not complete?" |
69 قَالَ
سَتَجِدُنِي إِن شَاء اللَّهُ صَابِراً وَلَا أَعْصِي لَكَ أَمْراً Moses said: "Thou wilt find me, if Allah so will, (truly) patient: nor shall I disobey thee in aught." |
70 قَالَ
فَإِنِ اتَّبَعْتَنِي فَلَا تَسْأَلْنِي عَن شَيْءٍ حَتَّى أُحْدِثَ لَكَ مِنْهُ ذِكْراً
The other said: "If then thou wouldst follow me, ask me no questions about anything until I myself speak to thee concerning it." |
