to pry the planks of the boat.
Nabi
Musa [a] was horrified to see Khidr
[a] making a hole in the side of the
boat.
He jumped up and sternly said to
him, “
These people have been so
kind to us and have carried us for
free. And now you deliberately
make a hole in their boat so that its
people drown. This is most wicked
indeed!
”
Allah’s servant Khidr [a] turned to
Nabi
Musa [a] and said, “
This boat
belongs to these poor people who
work on the river. I have damaged
their boat because Allah, who
knows what is to happen in the
future, has informed me that there is
a wicked king behind them who will
soon come to seize every good boat
by force. Now the king will see that
their boat is damaged and he will
not take it away from them. This is
Allah’s favour to these kind people
.”
