The enemy is from behind us and the valley is in front of us\u2019, just as the companions of Musa said, \u2018We are being overtaken\u2019 [26:61] \u2019. \n Rasool-Allah -saww descended, then said: \u2018O Allah -azwj ! You -azwj Made evidence to be for every Messenger -as , so Show me -saww Your -azwj Power!\u2019 and he -saww rode and the horse crossed over without dampening its hooves, and (also) the camels did not dampen their feet.

We returned and our victory was a (complete) victory\u2019. [11] \n Tafseer of the Imam (Hassan Al-Askari -asws ) \u2013 \u2018The Imam -asws said: \u2018When Musa – as ended up to the sea, Allah – azwj Mighty and Majestic Revealed unto him – as : \u201cSay to the Children of Israel: \u2018Renew My – azwj Tawheed (Oneness), and instruct your hearts to mention Muhammad – saww , the Chief of My – azwj servants and My – azwj maids, and prepare upon yourself the Wilayah of Ali – asws , brother of Muhammad – saww , and his – saww goodly Progeny – asws , and be saying: \u2018O Allah – azwj !

By their – asws virtue, Make us cross upon the back of this water\u2019, so the water would be transformed for you all as land\u201d. \n Musa – as said that to them, and they said: \u2018Are you – as implementing upon us what we dislike, and did we flee from the people of Pharaoh – la except out of fear of death (in the first place)? And you – as want to invade this water with us to be immersing in it with these words?

And what are you – as intending what would be occurring upon us, from this?\u2019 \n Kalb Bin Yohanna said to Musa – as , and he was upon a horse of his, and that gulf was of four Farsakhs (approximately 24 kilometres), \u2018O Prophet – as of Allah – azwj ! Allah – azwj Commands you – as with this that we should be saying and entering the water?\u2019 He – as said: \u2018Yes\u2019. \n He said, \u2018Are you – as ordering me with it?\u2019 He – as said: \u2018Yes\u2019.

\n He – asws said: \u2018So he paused and renewing upon himself the Tawheed of Allah – azwj , and the Prophet-hood of Muhammad – saww , and the Wilayah of Ali – asws Bin Abu Talib – asws , and the goodly ones – asws from their Progeny – asws , what he had been instructed with. Then he said, \u2018O Allah – azwj !

By their – asws virtue, Cause me to cross upon the back of this water!\u2019 Then he spurred his horse and galloped upon the back of the water, and the water from beneath him was like the soft ground, until he reached the end of the gulf.
