فقال: إنه يقول ما شاء، أي شي‏ء علي منه إذا لم أقل ما يقول؟ فقال له أبن الحسن (عليه السلام): «أما تخافن أن تنزل به نقمة، فتصيبكم جميعا؟ أما علمت بالذي كان من أصحاب موسى، و كان أبوه من أصحاب فرعون، لما لحقت خيل فرعون موسى (عليه السلام)، تخلف عنه ليعظه فأدركه موسى، و أبوه يراغمه، حتى بلغا طرف البحر، فغرقا جميعا He said, ‘He is saying whatsoever he desires to.

Which thing (blame) is upon me if I do not say from that which he is saying?’ So Abu Al-Hassan -asws said to him: ‘Are you not afraid that if a Curse were to descend due to it, it would engulf everybody there? Do you not know that there was one who was from the companions of Musa -as , and his (step) father was from the companions of Pharaoh -la . When the cavalry of Pharaoh -la came up to Musa -as , he stayed behind in order to advise him.

Musa -as realised it, that his father is compelling him, until they reached the sea. So they all drowned. فأتى موسى الخبر، فسأل جبرئيل عن حاله، فقال: غرق (رحمه الله) و لم يكن على رأي أبيه، لكن النقمة إذا نزلت، لم يكن لها عمن قارب المذنب دفاع؟ The news came to Musa -as , and he -as asked Jibraeel -as about his state. So he -as said: ‘Drowned (may Allah -azwj have Mercy upon him).

He was not upon the view of his (step) father, but the Curse, when it descends, the one who is near to the sin has no defence against it’.

By their -asws virtue, Make us cross upon the back of this water’, so the water would be transformed for you all as land”. فَقَالَ لَهُمْ مُوسَى ذَلِكَ.
