In this Arabic religious narration, the speaker recounts the Qur'anic episode where Prophet Musa (Moses) and al‑Khidr travel together. When al‑Khidr repairs a damaged village ship, a bird lands on the vessel, dips its beak (منقاج) into the sea, and takes a tiny grain before flying away. The speaker uses this simple image to explain that the extent of God’s knowledge is like the amount of water the bird’s beak immerses in the sea—vast and incomprehensible, even though the grain taken is minuscule. This metaphor convinces Musa that al‑Khidr possesses a deeper, divinely‑granted knowledge, leading Musa to accept al‑Khidr’s actions regarding the ship. The narration emphasizes the boundlessness of Allah’s knowledge of the universe and illustrates the humility required to recognize it.
