[Machine] From Bahz and Ibn Uyaynah, to the extent that Nawf claimed that Musa was not the companion of al-Khidr. He said: "The enemy of Allah is lying!" Ubbay ibn Ka'b narrated to us from the Prophet ﷺ who said: Musa stood up to give a sermon to the Children of Israel, and he was asked: "Who is the most knowledgeable among the people?" He said: "I am." So Allah admonished him, as knowledge was not returned to Him. He said: "Rather, there is a servant of Mine at the meeting place of the two seas who is more knowledgeable than you." Musa said: "O Lord, how can I meet him?" He said: "Take a fish and put it in a basket, then set out and wherever you lose the fish, then that is where you will find him." So Musa set out with his servant, walking, until they reached the rock. Musa laid down and the fish became turbulent in the basket and came out into the sea, so Allah seized him with a current of water like a taut rope. And the fish was like a flock for him. Sufyan said: "He knotted his thumb and forefinger together and opened a gap between them." He said: "So they set out until the next morning." Musa said to his servant: "{Bring] us our breakfast; indeed, we have suffered in this journey of ours [much] fatigue." (Quran 18:62) He said: "And he did not find the place [in the rock] until he passed by it." (Quran 18:64) So they returned to their footsteps and told the story of their footsteps. He said: "And Musa had a wondrous trace of the fish, and the fish had its flock." So he narrated the Hadith.
