abu kaab said perhaps one of us would forget and extend his hand to the bowl while his companion had extended his hand to the water. so moses would say to him your hand o forgetful one. if it were not for something i would have said to you o negligent one.
قال أبو كعب فربما نسي بعضنا فمد يده إلى القصعة، وقد مد يده صاحبه الى الماء. فيقول له موسى يدك يا ناسي. ولولا شيء لقلت لك يا متغافل.
