Moses and His Teacher
[18:65] They found one of our servants, whom we blessed with mercy, and bestowed upon him from our own knowledge.
[18:66] Moses said to him, "Can I follow you, that you may teach me some of the knowledge and the guidance bestowed upon you?"
[18:67] He said, "You cannot stand to be with me.
[18:68] "How can you stand that which you do not comprehend?"
[18:69] He said, "You will find me, GOD willing, patient. I will not disobey any command you give me."
[18:70] He said, "If you follow me, then you shall not ask me about anything, unless I choose to tell you about it."
[18:71] So they went. When they boarded a ship, he bore a hole in it. He said, "Did you bore a hole in it to drown its people? You have committed something terrible."
[18:72] He said, "Did I not say that you cannot stand to be with me?"
[18:73] He said, "I am sorry. Do not punish me for my forgetfulness; do not be too harsh with me."
