ahmad:21120ʿAbdullāh > Muḥammad b. Yaʿqūb Abū al-Haytham al-Rabālī > Muʿtamir b. Sulaymān from my father > Raqabah > Abū Isḥāq > Saʿīd b. Jubayr > Ibn ʿAbbās > Ubay b. Kaʿb > Nabī Allāh ﷺ

[Machine] I heard the Prophet of Allah, ﷺ , mentioning regarding Musa, that he was reminding his people of the days of Allah, the bounties of Allah, and the trials and tribulations that came upon them. He said, "I don't know of anyone on earth who is better than me or has more knowledge than me." Allah then revealed to him, "I know about the goodness that is with someone, and who that person is. Indeed, on earth there is a person who has more knowledge than you." He said, "O Lord, show me who he is." He was told to take a fish and they both set out. Eventually, they passed by a village whose people refused to host them. Then, he told him the story of the ship, and how the king caused it to be damaged, but he did not seek to benefit from it. As for the boy, he had a seal put on him the day he was born, indicating that he would become a disbeliever. But his parents were kind to him, and if he were to grow up, he would trouble them with his sinning and disbelief. And as for the wall, it belonged to two orphan boys in the city.
