حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبَّادٍ الْمَكِّيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ الْقَدَّاحُ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الصَّادِقُ عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ

مَارَانِي رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي فَزَارَةَ فِي الرَّجُلِ الَّذِي اتَّبَعَهُ مُوسَى [عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ]، فَقُلْتُ: هُوَ الْخَضِرُ [عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ]، وَقَالَ الْفَزَارِيُّ: هُوَ رَجُلٌ آخَرُ. فَمَرَّ بِنَا أُبَيُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ، قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: فَدَعَوْتُهُ، فَسَأَلْتُهُ: سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَذْكُرُ الَّذِي تَبِعَهُ مُوسَى [عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ] ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: بَيْنَمَا مُوسَى جَالِسٌ فِي مَلَإٍ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ: هَلْ أَحَدٌ أَعْلَمُ بِاللهِ [تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى] مِنْكَ؟ قَالَ: مَا أَرَى. فَأَوْحَى اللهُ إِلَيْهِ: بَلَى، عَبْدِي الْخَضِرُ. فَسَأَلَ السَّبِيلَ إِلَيْهِ، فَجَعَلَ اللهُ [تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى] لَهُ الْحُوتَ آيَةً إِنِ افْتَقَدَهُ، وَكَانَ مِنْ شَأْنِهِ مَا قَصَّ اللهُ [تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى]

✧ A man from Banū Fazārah argued with me about the man whom Mūsā ﷺ followed. I said, 'He is al-Khaḍir ﷺ.' The Fazārī said, 'He is another man.' Then Ubayy b. Kaʿb passed by us. Ibn ʿAbbās said: I called him and asked him, 'Did you hear the Messenger of Allah ﷺ mention the one whom Mūsā ﷺ followed?' He said, 'Yes. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: While Mūsā was sitting among a group of the Children of Israel, a man said to him, "Is there anyone more knowledgeable about Allah (Blessed and Exalted is He) than you?" He said, "I do not think so." Then Allah revealed to him, "Indeed, My servant al-Khaḍir." So he asked for the way to him, and Allah (Blessed and Exalted is He) made the fish a sign for him: if he lost it [he would find him]. And his affair was as Allah (Blessed and Exalted is He) related.'
