إِنَّ قَوْماً مِمَّنْ آمَنَ بِمُوسَى ( عليه السلام ) قَالُوا لَوْ أَتَيْنَا عَسْكَرَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَ كُنَّا فِيهِ وَ نِلْنَا مِنْ دُنْيَاهُ فَإِذَا كَانَ الَّذِي نَرْجُوهُ مِنْ ظُهُورِ مُوسَى ( عليه السلام ) صِرْنَا إِلَيْهِ فَفَعَلُوا فَلَمَّا تَوَجَّهَ مُوسَى ( عليه السلام ) وَ مَنْ مَعَهُ إِلَى الْبَحْرِ هَارِبِينَ مِنْ فِرْعَوْنَ رَكِبُوا دَوَابَّهُمْ وَ أَسْرَعُوا فِي السَّيْرِ لِيَلْحَقُوا بِمُوسَى ( عليه السلام ) وَ عَسْكَرِهِ فَيَكُونُوا مَعَهُمْ فَبَعَثَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مَلَكاً فَضَرَبَ وُجُوهَ دَوَابِّهِمْ فَرَدَّهُمْ إِلَى عَسْكَرِ فِرْعَوْنَ فَكَانُوا فِيمَنْ غَرِقَ مَعَ فِرْعَوْنَ . وَ رَوَاهُ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ حَقٌّ عَلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنْ تَصِيرُوا مَعَ مَنْ عِشْتُمْ مَعَهُ فِي دُنْيَاهُ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Al Husayn Bin saeed, from Al Naar Bin Suweyd, from Muhammad Bin Hisham, from the one who informed him, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘A group from the ones who believed in Musa<sup>as</sup> said, ‘If only we would go to the army of Pharaoh<sup>la</sup> and we could be in it, we would achieve from his<sup>la</sup> world. So when we see from the victory of Musa<sup>as</sup> we would go to him<sup>as</sup>’. So they did it. So when Musa<sup>as</sup> diverted along with the ones who were with him<sup>as</sup> fleeing towards the sea from Pharaoh<sup>la</sup>, they rode their animals and hastened in the riding in order to meet up with Musa<sup>as</sup> and his<sup>as</sup> army so that they could be with them. Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic Sent an Angel who struck the faces of their animals and returned them towards the army of Pharaoh<sup>la</sup>. Thus, they became from the ones who drowned along with Pharaoh<sup>la</sup>’. And it is reported from Ibn Fazzal, from Ali Bin Uqba, from one of our companions, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘It is a right upon Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic that you come to be (in the Hereafter) along with the ones you lived with in his world’.
