26-18 (The author of the book narrated) my father - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Sa’d ibn Abdullah quoted on the authority of Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Isa, on the authority of Al-Hassan ibn Ali ibn Fadhdhal, on the authority of Abil Hassan (s),

“The moon did not shine for the Children of Israel for some time. The Honorable the Exalted God revealed the following to Moses (s), ‘Take the remaining bones of Joseph (s) out of Egypt.’ God promised that once the bones were taken out, the moon would shine again.’ Moses (s) sought for someone who knew where they were. He was told that an old lady knew where they were. Moses (s) sent for her. They brought a crippled blind old woman. Moses (s) asked her, ‘Do you know where Joseph (s) is buried?’ She said, ‘Yes.’ Moses (s) said, ‘Then let me know where it is.’ She said, ‘I have four conditions for this. First, you must heal my legs; second you must return my youth to me; third you must return my sight; fourth you must take me to Paradise along with you.’ Moses (s) thought that these conditions were too much to be asked for, but the Honorable the Exalted God revealed to him, ‘O Moses! Give her what she asks for as you are doing that on My behalf.’ Moses (s) did that and the lady showed him the grave. Moses (s) brought the bones out of a marble coffin from the Nile’s shore. Then the moon rose. They took the bones to Syria. From then on the People of the Book take their dead ones to Syria.”
