(Consider) when Moses said to his young companion, "I shall continue travelling until I reach the junction of the two seas or have travelled for many years". 60 So when they had reached the junction of the two (rivers) they forgot their fish, and it took its way into the sea, going away. 61 So when they had passed beyond it, [Moses] said to his boy, "Bring us our morning meal. We have certainly suffered in this, our journey, [much] fatigue." 62 He said: lookest thou! when we betook ourselves to the rock, then I forgot the fish; and naught but the Satan made me forget to mention it, and it took its way into the sea - a marvel! 63 Musa said: that is that which we have been seeking. So they turned back upon their footsteps, retracing. 64 Then the twain found a bondman from Our bondmen, him We had vouchsafed a mercy from before Us, and him We had taught from Our presence a knowledge. 65 Musa said to him: Shall I follow you on condition that you should teach me right knowledge of what you have been taught? 66 He said, "Indeed, with me you will never be able to have patience. 67 And how shouldst thou bear patiently that thou hast never encompassed in thy knowledge?' 68 Moses said, "God willing, you will find me patient, and I will not disobey you in any thing." 69 "If you must follow me," he said, "do not ask me any thing until I speak of it to you myself." 70
