1-30 | 31-60 | 61-90 | 91-110

61. And when they reached the point where the two met, they forgot their fish, and it took its way into the waters, being free.
62. And when they had gone further, he said unto his servant: Bring us our breakfast. Verily we have found fatigue in this our journey.
63. He said: Didst you see, when we took refuge on the rock, and I forgot the fish and none but Satan caused me to forget to mention it, it took its way into the waters by a marvel.
64. He said: This is that which we have been seeking. So they retraced their steps again.
65. Then found they one of Our slaves, unto whom We had given mercy from Us, and had taught him knowledge from Our presence.
66. Moses {Musa} said unto him: May I follow you, to the end that you mayst teach me right conduct of that which you have been taught?
67. He said: Lo! you canst not bear with me.
68. How canst you bear with that whereof you canst not compass any knowledge?
69. He said: Allah willing, you shall find me patient and I shall not in aught gainsay you:
70. He said: Well, if you go with me, ask me not concerning aught till I myself mention of it unto you.
71. So the twain set out till, when they were in the ship, he made a hole therein. (Moses {Musa}) said: Have you made a hole therein to drown the folk thereof? You verily have done a dreadful thing.
72. He said: Did I not tell you you could not bear with me?
73. (Moses {Musa}) said: Be not wroth with me that I forgot, and be not hard upon me for my fault.
74. So the twain journeyed on till, when they met a lad, he slew him. (Moses {Musa}) said: What! Have you slain an innocent soul who has slain no man? Verily you have done a horrid thing.
75. He said: Did I not tell you that you could not bear with me?
76. (Moses {Musa}) said: If I ask you after this concerning aught, keep not company with me. You have received an excuse from me.
77. So they twain journeyed on till, when they came unto the folk of a certain township, they asked its folk for food, but they refused to make them guests. And they found therein a wall upon the point of falling into ruin, and he repaired it. (Moses {Musa}) said : If you hadst wished, you could have taken payment for it.
78. He said: This is the parting between you and me! I will announce unto you the interpretation of that you could not bear with patience.
79. As for the ship, it belonged to poor people working on the river, and I wished to mar it, for there was a king behind them who is taking every ship by force.
80. And as for the lad, his parents were believers and We feared lest he should oppress them by rebellion and disbelief.
81. And We intended that their Lord should change him for them for one better in purity and nearer to mercy.
82. And as for the wall, it belonged to two orphan boys in the city, and there was beneath it a treasure belonging to them and their father had been righteous, and your Lord intended that they should come to their full strength and should bring forth their treasure as a mercy from their Lord; and I did it not upon my own command. Such is the interpretation of that wherewith you could not bear.
83. They will ask you of Dhul-Qarneyn. Say: I shall recite unto you a remembrance of him.
84. Lo! We made him strong in the land and gave unto every thing a road.
85. And he followed a road
86. Till, when he reached the setting place of the sun, he found it setting in a muddy spring, and found a people thereabout: We said: O Dhul-Qarneyn! Either punish or show them kindness.
87. He said: As for him who does wrong, we shall punish him, and then he will be brought back unto, his Lord, who will punish him with awful punishment!
88. But as for him who believes and does right, good will be his reward, and We shall speak unto him a mild command.
89. Then he followed a road
90. Till, when he reached the rising place of the sun, he found it rising on a people for whom We had appointed no helper therefrom.
